NYC Raid? I thought nyc decriminalized this?

Like he said. This is Nassua County outside of NYC.
In any case, we should clear up that misunderstanding anyway. There was never a decriminalization. What happened is that the DA for Manhattan just said that he would no longer prosecute the cases for the ladies in particular and on the Leo side they supposedly shifted focus to the customer side with leniency granted to the ladies. I say supposedly because people have posted about several incidents since, within the NYC boundaries, of shops getting raided and shutdown. Sometimes it's the local Karens and NIMBY crowed forcing PD to do something about a shop they don't like. Other times it's Leo just doing their job because it's election season or they need the busts to bump up metrics and KPIs. Point is don't count on the new leniency practice, they plenty of other ways, reasons, and motivations to bust and it never became fully legit as far as actual law.

Worth noting that the DA who said that was Cyrus Vance Jr. and he's no longer Manhattan DA. But his successor (Alvin Bragg) sounds like he's even more lenient since his view is that neither provider nor buyer should be prosecuted.
Also:
Bragg, one of the candidates who would implement a declination policy that is aligned with a full decriminalization approach, also faults the Nordic model for leaving communities of color subject to disproportionate arrests for purchasing sex. He notes that “93 percent of those accused of trying to buy sex were nonwhite” in New York in the years 2017 through 2020.

My opinion for policing prostitution would be.
A. Make it legal
B. Make them get a license (yearly)
C. Shops should be called Bodywork, not massage
D. No street walking (for quality of life)
E. No shops near schools or synagogues
F. Keep it in commercial areas.
G. Open up Sex Malls , so we can window shop for pussy
Then again, I may be wrong

Perfectly said. The OP and many others are operating under a fallacy. Like I said before, this incident didn't occur in NYC, but to further elaborate, the Manhattan DA said he wouldn't prosecute, not that it was decriminalized. To elaborate even further the misconception, that statement was made by the Manhattan DA, NOT once was that claim made by the DA's in the other boroughs.
