It\u2019s driven a recent drop in shootings, for example \u2014 but they\u2019re still nearly twice pre-pandemic levels. And it\u2019s turning the tide on major crimes: Earlier in the year they were up 40% or more over 2021; for May, it was down to about 28% over May 2021.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>The signs are good, but it\u2019s no wonder more than 70% of New Yorkers fear they\u2019ll become a violent-crime victim; 52% want to see the NYPD\u2019s budget grow.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Now, it should come as no shock that cops are fleeing. Under Bill de Blasio, they suffered years of public maligning and backstairs interference. And while de Blasio\u2019s gone, the poisonous ideas he championed live on in recent lunatic state criminal-justice reforms \u2014 and in the catch-and-release tactics of our DAs, led by soft-on-crime Alvin Bragg. <\/p>\n<p>As a former Queens cop told The Post: \u201cThe city is out of control \u2014 especially since bail reform . . . I wish there was more we could do. But we can\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Worse still, the officer exodus is mostly from retirements. Which means the cops leaving are more experienced at, you know, actually fighting crime \u2014 having likely come up during the bad years under Dinkins and the better years under Giuliani and Bloomberg, when New York became America\u2019s safest big city.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The flight, in other words, not only leaves the force shrunk but missing key veterans.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All this makes the mayor\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>arent indifference a huge mistake.
