With cops on edge following the assassination of two patrol officers on a Brooklyn street, many officers have started turning a blind eye to some minor crimes, sources told The Post, while a union mandate that two patrol cars respond to all police calls has led to slower response times to non-emergencies.
“I’m not writing any summonses. Do you think I’m going to stand there so someone can shoot me or hit me in the head with an ax?” One cop said Sunday, referring to the Dec. 20 slayings and another recent attack on the NYPD.
“I’m concerned about my safety,” the cop added. “I want to go to home to my wife and kids.”
An NYPD supervisor noted, “My guys are writing almost no summonses, and probably only making arrests when they have to — like when a store catches a shoplifter.”
I don't see this as a bad thing.

Then you liberals need to legalize such behavior. Legalize all drugs and fighting to start out with. The cops are the ones that must enforce your laws.

Good. The cops need to. Let society get the type of police they asked for. And see how they like it.
That will make most New Yorkers happy, not having cops harass them for the sake of fines and intimidation.
Police should be careful about easing off on the police state, lest people get used to freedom.
If the police stop killing people for selling loose cigarettes, anarchy will clearly descend.
Police state .. being instructed to constantly stop and frisk every young black male in the neighborhood would qualify. At least in my book.

The police have never killed anyone for selling loose cigarettes.
No wonder. I am so tired of these hand up, don't shoot protesters. Michael Brown NEVER EVER put his hands up. I have seen blacks abusing each other in their own communities, they abuse each other to no end. BLACKS need to protest the abuse and violence in their own communities, police are the least of their concern.

Imagine black on black crime without police. Blacks should worship the ground police walk on.

I suppose they might if the police stopped harassing them, brutalizing them, and murdering them in the streets without justification.
