I mean if it wasn’t them, I guarantee you another agency would have went and got them or had jurisdiction. They wouldn’t have been like welp, I guess he outsmarted us. I’d rather gut them, use the money to fund transit, and rely on local police. Another perk would be I wouldn’t have to watch the same one mad mug people going into my local station. I have yet to actually see them do anything useful personally. Just walk around. Once they were clearly looking for someone. Some are plain clothes though too so at least they have to enjoy the stink and suck with us.

It was fake money in 2010 and it’s fake money now.

New federal employees also have to contribute 4.4% if I remember correctly. It’s important to factor that in. It was a much better deal for the older employees who only have to contribute like 1%.

Was it racially motivated? I can’t tell because you didn’t accurately report on this story, Boston.com.

There is someone on the tracks on average like once a month for the last six months, maybe longer.

If you know the bus number report it to the T they’ve been pretty responsive when buses have just blown past stops because that’s not okay

The real fucking criminal here is the power companies
“Where Cohasset is located in the Boston area, “electricity costs have exceeded the national average” by at least 48 percent over the past five years, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported.”

Behind the State Police, I think the MBTA Transit Police has the largest jurisdiction. They are responsible for anything MBTA but they can also pull you over for traffic stuff I guess. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a transit cop riding the train, however, when I use to get off at Forest Hills, the transit cops I saw usually seemed busy.

> Libertarian Republicans all in opposition. 😒.
Which is stupid considering the majority of subway lines in the US were built by private companies before being bought out decades later.

Wow -- getting flashbacks from days of old, going from MA to Killington to ski (at full Mt. price) one trail on their bunny slope, 'cuz it was open around Halloween-ish, while everyone around here was still raking leaves in their shorts

Did this for a dead show last year and it was amazing. They let the bus cut all the traffic leaving on the way out.
There’s a couple other bus services too. Highly recommend.
