Because it’s the right thing to do. You can’t have a cop behind each person to enforce all the laws. People should “self police” and realize that we’re living in a society where we must actually adhere to the values we say we have instead of just paying lip service.
This is why we can’t have nice things.
- jart 2y agoI didn't know petty thievery was among our values, Vlad.
- pclmulqdq 2y agoSelf-policing by social shame doesn't work when there is a large population of shameless people. That population happens to also include pretty much all of the thugs in the NYPD.
- SllX 2y agoSelf-policing is nice but it is nicely complemented by actual police work. Cities should be aggressively policing fare evaders and maybe that means putting actual police in front and inside the fare areas to catch fare evaders, exclude people with hygienic issues and take harassment reports/arrest sexual harassers.
