\n Chris Monahan, who heads the NYPD Captains Endowment Association, is usually more circumspect than the leaders of the sergeants\u2019 and patrolmen\u2019s unions, so it\u2019s notable that he just wrote his members about the impossible dilemma they\u2019ve been placed in during the current disorders.<\/p>\n

His e-mail warned that if cops go \u201chands off\u201d on looters and unruly protesters, \u201cyou will be assaulted by them.\u201d But if they go \u201chands on,\u201d then \u201cyou will be assaulted by our elected officials.\u201d<\/p>\n

In short, the politicians \u201cdo not have your back and will use you as a political pawn!\u201d<\/p>\n

He\u2019s absolutely right. On the one hand, officials from the mayor on down don\u2019t want mayhem. On the other hand, the politicians compete to\u00a0lead the rush to blame cops if something goes wrong.<\/p>\n

Officers and commanders were told to enforce a curfew \u2014 and then be flexible about it. By Saturday night, app<\/a>arently, they were being told not to enforce it all. Then the mayor canceled the last night of it.<\/p>\n

And when police do arrest someone, illegal protesters and even most looters are released as soon as they make it in front of a judge.\u00a0Heck, the Manhattan DA\u2019s Office on Saturday even declined to press charges against a man arrested for allegedly vandalizing St. Patrick\u2019s Cathedral \u2014 the suspected getaway driver for two women who defaced the church with graffiti. (He may still get indicted, pending further, active investigation.)<\/p>\n

Nearly all those charged with lawbreaking get to walk \u2014 even as multiple cops have been suspended or reassigned over charges they misbehaved (or failed to supervise properly) during the chaos.<\/p>\n

Mayor Bill de Blasio hasn\u2019t been the worst cop-basher over the past week. He noted, quite rightly, that police are operating in an environment where hundreds of them have been wounded \u2014 many because of direct and potentially deadly attacks.<\/p>\n

But he\u2019s getting worse. On Sunday, he had the gall to complain about police not wearing masks \u2014 when they\u2019re in heavy gear, including helmets, because of the danger.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s painful to people because it feels like [cops are] flouting the rules,\u201d the mayor whinged. This, when even the most peaceful protesters have been flagrantly flouting the social<\/a>-distancing rules and the whole \u201cstaying home saves lives\u201d thing, not to mention those who gleefully defied the curfew \u2014 even after warnings that doing so enables the looters and violent anarchists.<\/p>\n

And now de Blasio is\u00a0rushing to appease the \u201cDefund the Police\u201d lunatics, vowing to cut the NYPD budget to fund youth programs, among other things. You can bet that\u2019s just a taste of what\u2019s coming.<\/p>\n

Who will suffer most if you cut the budget of the NYPD? Poor neighborhoods where the crime rate will climb, as progressive\u00a0politicians punish the very black and Hispanic residents whom they claim to want to help.<\/p>\n

New York City is supposed to start reopening on Monday \u2014 with its commercial areas universally boarded up (often over broken store windows) and the boards covered with graffiti. And that\u2019s not even the biggest roadblock to restoring normalcy.<\/p>\n

No: The bigger problem is that the men and women of New York\u2019s Finest, who work tirelessly to protect the public, are all distracted by the need to look over their shoulder for the next attack by a politician.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
