If you don't like what NYC is doing maybe you should lobby them? I'm sure they'd listen to you just as much as the current federal government would listen to NYC.

I don't have a horse in this race. And I don't like the current immigration laws, I'd rather have legally open borders.

But it doesn't mean existing laws shouldn't be enforced IMO.

So you’re going to go to the police now with the information you have on your friends’/coworkers’ drug habits, right? After all, laws should be enforced, and everyone should proactively give any support they might be able to give to the police.

That’s not what he’s saying at all.

Sorry, but it kind of is. New York has decided not to proactively provide some information to a law enforcement agency. avocado4 is claiming that this is "trying to prevent enforcement". Obviously that is nonsense.

State governments have no duty to enforce Federal laws.

But they do have a legal obligation, in certain cases, as a side effect of taking Fed funding. Not in agreement with it, just worth noting.
