MTA is Failing NYC Commuters

[99er]

If you live in New York and have to use mass transit you are literally putting your life in danger.

This is what I saw today while getting off the subway at 42nd and Bryant Park. This guy in in the colorful attire was staring at a woman at a automated metrocard terminal. He had a bizzaar, hypnotic look on his face. Very creepy. Don't think he was trying to get her pin number. For a woman riding a train in NYC must be a frightening experience. Police are rarely seen.

The mentally ill are plentyful in the subway system. And many of them are responsible for the violence. The system is failing. And we all suffer as a result. MTA has no answer.
