De B gets earful at stop-Asian-hate rally

Mayor de Blasio was heckled and swarmed on Friday night by protesters at a Union Square vigil that was held to protest anti-Asian racism and mourn the victims of the Georgia massage parlor shootings.

A diverse crowd gathered on 14th Street to demand an end to hate crimes and bias after a lone gunman killed six Asian women and two others in Atlanta-area attacks on Tuesday night.

Mourners lit candles, held signs reading “Stop Killing Us” and “Stop Asian Hate,” and laid flowers in front of makeshift memorials, as politicians and advocates addressed protesters, some of whom turned their anger on Hizzoner.

“What are you going to do about it,” a chorus of people demanded as de Blasio called for victims of antiAsian bias crimes to come forward, according to social media footage.

The mayor was surrounded by about a dozen hostile protesters as his motorcade left the event, video posted on Twitter showed.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and mayoral hopeful Andrew Yang were among those calling for peace and healing at the Asian American Federation-hosted event.

“This week has been so hard and upsetting,” said Jayne Ng, 25, a ChineseAmerican who attended the vigil. “So I appreciate that there were leaders from the Muslim, Hispanic and black communities here tonight to speak up and stand by the AsianAmerican community. They came out to say they’re here for us.”

The NYPD has recorded a 1300 percent increase in anti-Asian hate crimes during the coronavirus pandemic and has stepped up patrols in Asian neighborhoods following the massage parlor murders.
