Not to nitpick, but shouldn't the title read "Madison and Herald Squares"

I want this to happen but first youd need to beef up the transit options in the city

Got it. No offense.

They're not arguing though, just yell-talking.

Here's the person who actually filmed the video: https://www.instagram.com/stories/americanmartian/3057952719188675304/

In his IG story he's criticizing the media for the hate crime angle they're going with and calling for them to correct the story.

According to him, it was not a racially motivated attack. All the kids know each other and the autistic kid (Elijah) was getting beat up because he was talking smack about the other kids and making fun of two of their friends who recently died from subway surfing. Other kids also said Elijah apparently previously joined in on beating up another kid too so he wasn't getting anything here that he hasn't dished out himself on others.

I’m pretty sure back when you were sleeping on trains, stuff like this was still happening. You just may not have known about it, because we just weren’t as hyper aware of everything back then.

Now do every other street and make the city a nice place for everyone.

We’re nowhere near 80s levels of crime…

Seriously no one could’ve stepped in and stopped these two teenage girls?? I could understand fully grown adults throwing blows, but looking at the video it seems like something that could have easily be stopped.

I’ve read comments that the young victim is on the autism spectrum. Anyone assaulting autistic people should be sterilized. We don’t need them reproducing.

Why would they? You saw how many shithead kids were there? That's a mob beating or stabbing risk waiting to happen.

This was a known issue since before the tunnel was built, those trains were never going to be designated for the tunnel. It's not a gigantic screwup.

I am just trying to bust balls now. I was genuinely asking in my first question, but I understand that this is a tricky and complicated subject.

This Is Very Sad & Ridiculous!!! Who Would DO Such A Thing :'(

Stop trying to add fuel to the fire and wait for details.
