Trump sending the NG to Chicago and on and on and on.
The loudest complainers I have heard are suburban Karens that instantly call the police when they hear a muffled firecracker down the street.
The woman trying to raise a couple of kids pays something like that no mind. She hears gunshots nearby on a regular basis. Besides, if she did call the police nothing would happen. She knows this so why bother?
You let your kids play in the yard without a second thought. Sometimes they play with the kids next door and you know they're safe.
The woman in the bad neighborhood won't let her kids off the porch. She's terrified that her kid will be hurt or be sucked into gang life and/or get into the drug underworld. No telling what will happen to her kids.
It's a hard way to live. The poor mother wants her kids safe and they're not. there's too much outside temptation out there and too much street violence evil.
You have never had much to worry about. the inner city mother has had far too much to worry about.
Your small children get picked up at your door by the school bus and you see them off. Maybe your teenager has to walk a block or two through a nice, clean, safe neighborhood to get to the bus stop. Her children go out the door and have to negotiate dirty, dangerous streets and dodge thugs and drug addicts to get to school where they will receive a pretty worthless education.
YOUR kids are likely going to college or at least a place where they can learn a halfway decent trade. Her kids will likely either drop out or be forced out of school which really doesn't matter because even if the make it through all 12 grades most likely the kid will be able to read and write on a 4th grade level.
(Then again, YOUR kids in your prestigious suburban school district will probably be able to read and write at a 6th grade level.)
