The preaching is hella annoying at 8am when you're trying to just get to work. Violence, no matter how understandable, will make people avoid other people.
Social safety nets are a plenty in nyc(one of the bluest places in America) and still a bunch of homeless people. You're not going to get the federal government solving nyc problems and nyc hasn't been able to solve the problem no matter how many billions are thrown at the problem.
NYC may be one of the blue-est states in north america, but it would be one of the Red-est counties in countries like canada, most of europe etc. (also depending when you look at america historically as economically, the states have been becoming more and more conservative for the past century or so)
