Andrew Yang is garnering backlash on Twitter for saying 'sh*t' during a campaign stop at a church in Brooklyn, with users claiming it wasn't the place to use such language. 'I moved here as a 21-year-old law student at Columbia,' Yang, who is running in the 2021 New York City mayoral race, said at St. Ann's Church in Brooklyn Heights during a Saturday campaign event. Now he is vying to take Bill de Blasio's seat, who has served since 2014 and cannot run for a third consecutive term under current New York City law. Yang wrote with images of his speech and with supporters who came to the town hall. The New York City mayor race has 16 Democratic candidates in the running.
