>Probably because that viewpoint is not shared by the vast majority of people who actually live in New York City.

Most people in NYC do care about public safety, and the redditors in this sub also upvoted many crime submissions to the top.

Many people don't want to believe other new yorkers care about public safety because they want to deny parts of the reality that they feel are inconvenient to their political biases.
