Should I repeat it for you:

1 crime is more than enough for me

Listen no need to go back and forth with me. Either you're going to be part of the solution or part of the problem. The problem is, like many others, you want people to be at your beck and call and not pay. This is a city, and its a business, like it or not. There will always be crime. If you want zero crime, move to the suburbs, and do everything yourself - get your own water, dispose of your own garbage, etc.

The NYC suburbs are experiencing a situation of "eating too much cake." They want the city experience but want it at the expense of others. Thats why their taxes are 20K for anything halfway decent.

The problem is everybody wants to complain and nobody wants to put in the work to fix.

Look, if Downtown Brooklyn is too scary for you, simply dont go there anymore. If you work down there, tell your boss you're too scared to come to work.

You crime-defending attitude/agenda is a big part of the problem and can never be the solution in any way.
You constantly jump on people who voice their concerns about crime, which seems bizarre and please explain what your drive is...

LOL I am not defending crime. I am a realist who believes nobody is perfect. Therefore, if you want perfection, you have to create that yourself. So move. And create that zero crime perfection you desire.

The same preach to ask everyone to live with crime instead of fighting crime?

Do you understand that that crime spreads like fire, if you don’t contain it, it will eventually come and get you???

This entire thread is meaningless because there's a shootout every day in this country and the majority of them happen far from NYC. I live not in the suburbs, but in farm country, and the paper here has shootings, drug busts, murders and traffic fatalities DAILY. The country is full of guns, drugs, and poor people who are getting poorer. Also mental patients who can't get treatment. If you want a crime-free society, you have to, at the very least, leave the country entirely. (Also want to point out that people being pushed out of the "city" go to - Brooklyn????)

With a rise in poverty, there's a rise in crime. Learn some history.

The more guns, the more likelihood someone will use one.
