De Blasio caves to absurd ‘defund the police’ movement: Goodwin

The latest evidence comes with his agreement to cut police spending by about 17 percent, including the cancellation of a new class of rookies. With retirements soaring, that guarantees fewer cops on the street just as murder and mayhem are turning much of the city into the Wild West.

Murders are up 25 percent this year and the police counted 63 shootings last week, compared with 26 for the same week last year.

The violent tide suggests the bad guys have no fear of being ­arrested. Why should they? And if they are, the new bail law requires judges to release most of them ­immediately anyway.
