What's funny is that us New Yorkers within NYC who are against the riots and looting hate this Mayor, too.
Dem protestors and rioters/looters hate him because he has the NYPD on the street and enacted a curfew (that they ignore anyway, which has caused me to ignore as well).
The dozens of us non-Dems hate him because he told the NYPD to handle rioters lightly and because there's been zero change in policy once anyone is arrested.
If I wanted to, I could go out to one of these riots, loot whatever I wanted, get arrested, and just go home within 24 hours. It's literally "catch and release".
