The 70s & 80s, now in living color on a subway platform near you. A true sign of decay, one that we worked so hard to eradicate decades ago. The taggers had plenty of time to cover this entire train, because they know there are no more consequences. #backtothefuture
Me and some guy were running up the stairs to catch a train. Me directly behind him. He whipped out some aftershave and sprayed half the bottle all over himself, and me. This is bullshit behaviour. No thank you. Now all I can smell is ‘Gross’ by ‘That Guy’.
It costs NYC, $2,000 to arrest someone. It costs them $500 per night to jail them on Rikers Island.
If someone is sentenced to 60 days in jail because they didn't pay a $2.75 subway fare, it costs the city, $22,000.
For years, the MTA blamed rising ridership and overcrowding for subway delays. Yet ridership was actually mostly flat, and the MTA recently acknowledged that overcrowding was not at fault. https://t.co/5XEbOhpyBN
