Not sure where this strange fixation with Faux News comes from. I don't even watch TV, MUCH LESS TV news.

To be honest, I ONLY get my news from the New York Times. That is the ONLY news source I read and trust.

Here's a quick summary in case you won't understand how to run the tables:

Overall Violent Crime Rates (includes murder, rape, assault, robbery)

New York: 59 out of 100 (below such crime hot spot meccas such as Des Moines, Iowa and St Paul, MN)
Jacksonville: 52 out of 100

Overall Property Crime Rates (includes burglary, larceny/theft, auto theft)

New York: 96 out of 100
Jacksonville: 53 out of 100

So yet again your premise that New York and the Bronx are "high crime" are false compared to other cities in the United States.

Good try though. Lots of bold/CAPITALIZED words didn't help ya though.

There, now we can quit quibbling over these matters and look at actual facts without everyone's emotions getting the best of them.

Haven't you heard? Anyone who disagrees with a hard left liberal watches Fox News day and night and keeps a picture of Rush Limbaugh on their nightstand, with a picture of Sean Hannity in their wallet. Oh yeah, and I forgot, they also have a Trump flag mounted to their jacked up GMC pickup truck as well, lol. The more severe TDS cases just can't seem to fathom the concept that there are people out here capable of logical, rational thinking that don't fall into their small minded ideal of a right wing, gun toting, deplorable bible toting conservative. Those are the ones that the media gives the most attention to, in order to keep their base riled up and entranced in their programming, but reality is most don't actually fall into that category.

All the while, liberal policies continue to push more and more Americans deeper into poverty, and now 60% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. The Brandon worshippers will tell you that's a good thing, lol.

As a New York Times reading ATHEIST, I AGREE with you completely.

One thing you left out, however, is ANGRY.

Many of those folks you mentioned are very, very ANGRY all the time.

I wonder why?

Someone showing HARD DATA from a reputable source (not wikipedia).

I wonder why nobody is addressing this DATA-DRIVEN rebuttal?

Have you met most New Yorkers? Educated isn't a word I'd use.

Hard to meet "most" of a city of 19 million people. But thanks for proving my point yet again.

You sure do love generalizing conservatives but if someone generalizes any other group, oh here comes the heavy defense and data. And you have 'Florida' in your name. Aren't you worried someone will judge you and think you're just one of those DeSantis lovers? MAGA hat wearing redneck? I'm pretty sure 'edumacated' is a shot at black people too. Rednecks never used that word. But as you always say "You do you!"
