Why hardly anyone is fighting back against Big City Crime in any way: y'all keep telling people to simply leave the leftist crime-ridden cesspools rather than try to pressure the cities and states into doing better; when someone says you're not gonna make it unless you give the criminal what he wants, 10-to-1 you're gonna give the criminal what he wants to save your own life; if you fight back, there's a non-negligible chance the criminal will make good on his threat; if you fight back and make it out alive, there's a non-negligible chance you'll get punished for roughing up the criminal much worse than the criminal ever would have.
