At the rate they do not allow any mistakes with police officers without charging them they’ll soon find officers holding back entirely when we really need them to act.

I believe that's intentional. The goal was to put local cops under Federal political control. That goal has been achieved.
Cops will act when they know they are ordered from on-high and are politically protected, ie) when it matters to the state.
As for random street crime? That doesn't matter. Expect it to continue to rise rapidly.
