Another new video of a mob drenching New York's finest. Here, the group armed with pails of water targets two female officers. This incident comes days after earlier water ambushes in the city.

The lack of response by the officers before offered tacit encouragement. It's only water, true. But what’s next? Who knows?

The mayor of New York is more frightened of mean tweets than he is of crime. So we know where the folks in City Hall will stand: right under their desks.

And the mayor, embarking on an already absurd presidential run, will use his son once again as an example of how the New York Police Department racially profiles minorities. Even though the force is largely made up of minorities.

This could get worse as prisons close and the detention of suspects awaiting trial is eliminated for many in 2020.
