nyc policing isn't like it is here in the boonies;

A New York City resident recently released a video on X, formerly Twitter, revealing that the New York Police Department has been given orders not to arrest violent illegal migrants’ gangs because the cops “do not want to look bad.”

“Guys, the violence here in the last two weeks in New York City has gotten so bad. Basically, all the migrants have created these little sub-gangs according to where they have derived from. The Colombians are sticking together. The Venezuelans are sticking together,” the woman said in the clip. She added that her friend, who is an NYPD officer, said that his superiors ordered them: “Don’t make us look bad. Don’t arrest any of them.”

“I saw my friend this weekend who is NYPD and he was telling me how crazy it is. And that they have direct orders that they can’t even really arrest them [migrant criminals]. Unless it’s a serious crime. Isn’t that ***** sick? Meanwhile, you got citizens who live here and they jaywalk and the cops are like, take that piece of *** in. Let’s go, $3,000 fine,” she ranted on the social media post.........more.........
