re: Asian Woman Pushed to Her Death in Front of Oncoming Train In NYC

His criminal history includes multiple prior arrests and has been on parole, sources told News 4.

Of course.

And why is it these stories are almost always in New York?

I heard on radio yesterday that they want to release 2000 inmates from Rikers island.

anyone remember when Biden tasked his DOJ with looking into who was the greatest terroristic thread to the United States? Pretty sure it was one of his Day 1 EO’s

Of course they came back with the answer of: domestic White Supremacists.

We learned this week that the DOJ even setup having the Teacher’s Union formally request they (the DOJ) investigate parents for protesting at school board meetings…

Hell, the DOJ started a new task force this week to ‘combat domestic terrorism as national security officials warn of a "persistent and evolving" threat of violent extremism within the U.S’

and of course the media carries that torch despite stories like this popping up every day in cities all over the country. One specific demographic causing the vast majority of violent crime and it’s not even remotely close. so, i ask…

how many hate crimes by white supremacists have ended in a death in 2021? Now compare that the other demographic? Or demographic : demographic violent crime in major American cities.

would the average American feel safer moving into a neighborhood that votes 90% Republican. Or 90% Democrat?

Seems like places like Denver aiport and DFW airport have trains that line up perfectly with the doors everytime. I imagine it could theoretically be done on a larger scale.

Full automation of something like the NYC subway system is certainly possible, but I think you are vastly underestimating the complexity. The two systems you referenced are a line and a loop, respectively. If you look at the NYC subway map, you’ll see why automation would be several orders of magnitude more difficult and staggeringly more expensive.

With that said, I think this is also a bit of a sensationalized problem. I mean, I get it, the prospect is terrifying, but if someone were standing next to a busy street and someone pushed them into traffic, I doubt anyone would be calling for hand rails lining our roads. Don’t stand right on the edge of a busy road. Don’t stand right on the edge of a train platform, underground or above ground. The world is full of risks and danger; people should behave accordingly.

For some reason, this murder won’t make national news.

They need to kick the homeless out of the stations.

Agreed. Used to go there regularly for business purposes. The homeless were taking baths in the toilets inside the train station as well. The entire place smelled of terrible body odor. You couldn’t even take a leak before getting on the train without basically throwing up. I saw several crazy fights with homeless people where cops were 20 feet away and did nothing. They must be used to it happening regularly.
