The mayor, speaking during an interview on 1010 WINS Friday morning, justified his rhetoric by saying the woman, a tenant activist, was disrespectful when she stood up at a town hall and pointedly asked the mayor about the Rent Guidelines Board, a body entirely composed of mayoral appointees that recently voted for another rent increase for regulated apartments.

    He’s justifying it by saying she was being disrespectful. I wasn’t there, maybe she was, but that’s kinda what you sign up for as mayor. I’ve been disrespected worse, for less money.
