As someone who lives in New York, this is roughly the story. Our DA has… different priorities at the moment. It’s not so much that police don’t want to make arrests, it’s more that they’re aware that even when they do, the suspect will be out with 0 bail very shortly after. Why bother?
The individual you’re replying to has some pretty strong opinions about police and their “fee-fees (?)” and that anger is showing their comment.
