They (and Giuliani) think they are responsible for the drop in crime in NY through their 'broken window' policing campaign that happened to correlate precisely with the change in the economy and the influx of foreign cash that changed the face of this city. So they believe that if they stop arresting people for minor shit and serving up summons and pushing minorities out of 'good' neighborhoods (and being constantly on their backs in 'bad' ones) using stop-and-frisk, that the city will go to hell. It won't.
