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.
Your brain works

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 prefection you desire.
You are defending crime without knowing or understanding your behavior or cognitive actions, that is the root of the problem leading to the being of many crime-ridden communities.

Yet you continue to punish yourself by living in this high-crime city

Your perception is totally off, just like how you understand crime.
Constant Bragging how brave you are or your desire to live with crime doesn’t paint any good image of you... it reflects something else less desirable about you

It is more like you should consider moving to a provincial town in New York State with no outtatowners. However the locals out in the sticks "prolly" would not want your "outtatowner" ass in their New England town.
There is no way to get any meaningful discussions with you given your poor comprehension of what it takes to maintain a civilized environment not to mention your possible contribution to advance civilization.
Instead of asking fellow ny residents to leave or live with crime, you should seriously consider moving to pre existing crime ridden lands to be happy among like minded. There are plenty away all levels you could wish for.

I dunno because the 7F is free to have a differing opinion. Some of what he describes is valid in a way, but it seems like trolling too.
One does not have to lean too far in either direction to spark an argument at City Data.
Otherwise Jay Street is like a safe wonderland if you ask me and MTA has been doing a good job lately with all my commutes which span multiple boroughs. I have to ride a lot in the subways.
Anywhere in Manhattan people who were whining about how bad they have it several years ago (Millennial kids of all skin colors) are actually employed and making decent enough money to survive and eat out all the time. They really have no clue how good they have it right now. There are lot of young ethnic guys wearing three piece suits and those shiny leather douchebag shoes. You know what I am saying. Plus the skinny socks with weird colors and cartoon designs on them. Those people. They all have the latest iPhones and Apple ear phones, fancy haircuts, young kids walking around like they own the place, with their noses up in the air, still complaining about diversity.
That is another thing: all those shiny douchebag shoes.. they used to be dress shoes for MEN. Now they are reserved for young douchebags. Such is life.

Of course he has every right to see the changes he likes to see about NYC, but he has become very aggressive on people who voice their concerns about crime.
I have lived at places of different crime levels and have become quite skilled in staying safe no matter what. But I wouldn’t laugh at people who work towards safe and crimeless livings.
Meant to quote jay443 not leoliu...
