Didn’t take long for the city to go to shit. Just now a year after his inaugural Bill de Blasio’s tenure as mayor is pretty much finished. He just doesn’t know it yet.
It’s not a slowdown — it’s a virtual work stoppage.
NYPD traffic tickets and summonses for minor offenses have dropped off by a staggering 94 percent following the execution of two cops — as officers feel betrayed by the mayor and fear for their safety, The Post has learned.
The dramatic drop comes as Police Commissioner Bill Bratton and Mayor de Blasio plan to hold an emergency summit on Tuesday with the heads of the five police unions to try to close the widening rift between cops and the administration.
The unprecedented meeting is being held at the new Police Academy in Queens at 2 p.m., sources said.
Angry union leaders have ordered drastic measures for their members since the Dec. 20 assassination of two NYPD cops in a patrol car, including that two units respond to every call.
It has helped contribute to a nose dive in low-level policing, with overall arrests down 66 percent for the week starting Dec. 22 compared with the same time period in 2013, stats show.
Citations for traffic violations fell by 94 percent, from 10,069 to 587, during that time frame.
Summonses for low-level offenses like public drinking and urination also plunged 94 percent — from 4,831 to 300.
Even parking violations are way down, dropping by 92 percent, from 14,699 to 1,241.
Drug arrests by cops assigned to the NYPD’s Organized Crime Control Bureau — which are part of the overall number — dropped by 84 percent, from 382 to 63.
You can be sure the criminals know this. Speaking of criminals, we haven’t heard from Al Sharpton lately. Must have fled back to his estate in New Jersey.

"the five police unions" Five? Do they really need that many? Apparently so in NYC where the Liberals rule.
Beyond that, New Year's Eve in Times Square ought be interesting. It's going to be extremely cold, the cops are on a slowdown, the protestors are promising demonstrations to disrupt activities, and conditions are excellent for some loony suicide bomber to do his thing.

It occurs to me that this is going to make DeBlasio look good on paper.
Think about the upcoming headline,
.... "Under DeBlasio: Crime is down dramatically! City-wide!!!"
