This was horrific to watch.
Serious question: for the adults watching a situation like this unfold, what exactly can they do? Besides the threat of many of them jumping the adult, the adult would be in trouble if they got physical with the “kids”, no?

The scene was surreal. Still hate these 3 fuckers with all my heart for ruining that r211 run.

Jut saw this on tik tok and the person who posted the video said the victim is autistic, which makes this even more sad and heartbreaking. Poor guy.

Bittersweet to see that I’m not just going crazy feeling this way too

That was really upsetting to see. I'm violently angry after watching it.
I don't care how old these kids were. They should spend time locked up for this.

Anti black slurs in upper Manhattan? I'm wondering if it was a bunch of Dominican kids picking on a Haitian or something, usually I don't see a lot of anti-black racism there of all places.

Trains just aren’t what they used to be. I could sleep from brooklyn to bronx on D train and set an alarm on my phone but now i gotta keep both eyes open

Outrageous. That kid appeared to be completely defenseless, and just wanted to be left alone.

rats would go up and down the train scaring everyone not just 1 or 2 cars.

There's a documentary about this guy, it's called Off The Rails, came out a few years ago.

He walked up to a cop car and asked to use their cellphone. Nobody is going to fall for that cop or civilian should have pointed him to one those free kiosks that are replacing the payphones

Yeah, this makes me really uneasy for the no door reason. I do hope there is a way to close the doors or activate a divider if there is a problem.

>Contempt for police is caused by police not by moral decline.
In some cases, but the majority of cases? No, total nonsense.

I'd guess at least 10% of the city has a criminal record. A lot of the angry down-voters are literally criminals themselves. They'll keep blindly raging against law enforcement and social order and wonder why their lives continue to get shittier.

Then you have to include Gen X, and every generation that comes after them as well. As government employee salaries go up, their pensions will go up as well.

Spam - Eh, thought people would like it.
Not a radio station - Sure it is, you get it over radio waves if you use wife or cellular.
Its just some online BS- Sure, what isn't.
Not from The New School - New School students and faculty are the DJs!

I love how the cops tell a story to put them in a favorable light, as if they have any credibility at this point. Cops notoriously lie to cover their own ass, and it's no different in this case.

It is an underappreciated form of anti-Black racism, and very well could be the case (but we don’t know the details yet).
I was left with a lasting impression by this article of how bad it can be (this is specifically referring to Mexican neighborhoods in LA). It just wasn’t the image I had always conjured up when thinking about “racism”.
