It’s not funny when you consider that BART police have shot and killed at least three unarmed people in the last few years, not to mention they’ve even engaged in fatal “friendly fire” of their own... This is easily one of the most violent transit police departments.

My suspicion is that some of those BART stations are extremely dangerous environments that put police in very tricky situations. There have also admittedly been a few very high profile accidental shootings.
