Don’t worry, it’s a drop in the bucket of the NewYork Militarys Police Departments 11 Billion dollar budget. (a reduction since last year)

For some perspective, the entire United States Coast Guard, which employs 43k active duty and 8k reservists, operates 210 aircraft, 245 cutters (ships), 1500+ small boats, spread out over the whole world, completing missions from environmental mishap response, captain of the port in warzones, aids to navigation, drug interdiction, border patrol, law enforcement, disaster response, and, of course, search and rescue, has a budget only around 2 billion more than that.
Makes you wonder where all that funding for one police department is going.
