I've used public transportation in NYC, Chicago, and LA. Even with my minimal use of such services during vacations my bar for trading in my car would be extreme enforcement to remove the homeless/drug addicts/etc that make the experience feel unsafe. I feel like free use would exacerbate that problem.
- jakelazaroff 4y agoThe intended beneficiary of public transportation is, well, the public. That includes people whose presence might make you uncomfortable. Those people exist, and they have the same right to use the system that you do. This is fundamentally an issue that law enforcement cannot solve. Also, for what it's worth: as someone who uses the NYC subway extensively, it does not feel unsafe.
- Consultant32452 4y agoI have no problem with anyone "using" the system for its intended purpose: to get from point A to point B. That is not what I'm referring to at all and you know it.
- jakelazaroff 4y agoUnhoused people are only “misusing” the system because the broader system has failed them. And their presence isn’t hurting anyone. I have very little patience for wanting a state paramilitary force to violently remove others for the crime of reminding them that not everyone has a bed to sleep in at night.
- Consultant32452 4y agoI don't want to argue with you or change your mind. I will just never submit to your shitty public transportation conditions.
