Republican NYC financial priorities in order:

1. $2.75 subway fare being paid

...

1000. Billionaires in NYC evading taxes

So many people have zero courtesy

Chances of getting killed on the subway at all - homicide, suicide, accident, are FAR lower than chances of death from driving in a car.

And notice how all the people who are talking about crime don't talk about subway track barriers - something that actually would reduce or eliminate these deaths - it's all about more cops and more power for cops, or just nebulous complaining without any actual solutions.

New York State's crime rate and homicide rate are lower than average, and lower than most red states.

New York City's homicide rate is lower than New York State's homicide rate, and NYC is the safest big city in the country.

We're doing fairly well.

Despite propaganda, facts remain facts. Sorry bout it.

I would love for you to consider why you think traffic accidents are not controllable or worth considering, but violence is controllable and worth considering.

You already know, I hope, that it's much more risky to your life to drive in a car than take the subway. You could consider all sorts of regulations or laws that could make driving more safe, but you only want to focus on random violent crime which is more rare and less deadly.

And motor vehicle deaths are low compared to all sorts of diseases and conditions.

Except people are bad at judging what's actually a threat to them and what's not.

Conveniently, creating fear of crime helps right wing politicians and narratives, even if it's not accurate or reflective of reality.

For example, violence on the subway has been the chosen right wing narrative lately. But the crime rate on the subway is 1.6 per million riders in NYC. That translates to a couple crimes a day, all of which are featured on the New York Post and this subreddit.

Compare to the motor vehicle death rate (accidents, etc) of 1.6 per 100k residents in NY state.

To be clear, the motor vehicle death rate is ten times higher than the subway crime rate.

So regardless of the narrative you clearly want to push as well, it's not accurate. And yes, it's fair to moderate it.

A subreddit isn't obligated to feature every possible article about crime, especially considering it's just a fact that the violent crime rate is significantly lower in NYC than the rest of the country.
