azspeedbullet Posted January 30, 2012 Share #1 Posted January 30, 2012 Are the subway seats clean during the day or at night? I hope they do get cleaned, because this video makes no longer want to sit down on the subway: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoTimer Posted January 30, 2012 Share #2 Posted January 30, 2012 I caught one pissing on the cab door at 207 the other week. He obviously doesn't care that people actually use that area to get into the cab and move the train/doors and tried to act oblivious to that fact.

Roadcruiser1 Posted January 30, 2012 Share #4 Posted January 30, 2012 That is disgusting. It's time to get those bums out of our subway. I don't see bums in other transit systems around the world. Arrest any bum that you see in our subway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lance25 Posted January 30, 2012 Share #8 Posted January 30, 2012 Public indecency. The term you're looking for is loitering. You can't arrest someone for simply being a bum. You can kick them out of the subway, but that requires manpower from the NYPD or the Transit Police. Whipping out your **** and pissing all over the seats, doors, platforms, etc are another matter entirely and that's indecency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peacemak3r Posted January 30, 2012 Share #9 Posted January 30, 2012 I don't see bums in other transit systems around the world. I've seen bums on Chicago's EL, Hong Kong's Metro and Japanese trains; so I have no clue what you thought you were trying to imply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly! And you cant get them on loitering if they payed to get on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

datDude Posted January 30, 2012 Share #13 Posted January 30, 2012 Every system has an occasional bum but NY has more than most from what Ive seen. There are bums in DC but I almost never saw on the Metro. In the streets is another story. DC's system closes at night so its not like you can camp out in the system like here. NY's 24/7 system is easy place for homeless to find some shelter. Other systems have the convenience of closing at late night to clean and such. Our dirty system is the price to pay for being have a 24/7 subway system. After living in a few different cities I've come to appreciate the NY subway alot more, even if its the ugliest and dirtiest I've ridden. You cant arrest bums for no reason but this dude can be. Ive seen ppl get arrested to taking a piss on the platform this is even worse, damn on the train. With all the stuff he got he wasnt getting off for s***!

Grand Concourse Posted January 30, 2012 Share #14 Posted January 30, 2012 Well, like with the most recent shut down for hurricane Irene, the entire system was shut down. Times like that are a good way to round up all the bums and get them out. As far as "they paid", that's one thing, but no where is it said they can stay on the property like it's their home/shelter. I would've thought most of them should've been prohibited especially years ago when a deranged bum pushed a woman onto the tracks in front of an oncoming train. Not saying they are all like that one, but you never know what their mental status is. As for civil rights lawyers advocating for their rights, I'd like to see them 'adopt a bum' and let them live in their apartment and see how long they'd put up with the person.

INDman Posted January 30, 2012 Share #15 Posted January 30, 2012 People do that shit all the time man... Especially on the older trains The age of the train has noting to do with it, it's just the level of savagery that "person" has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INDman Posted January 30, 2012 Share #16 Posted January 30, 2012 Clearly! And you cant get them on loitering if they payed to get on. Actually that's not true. At terminals you can not go from an arriving train directly to a departing train, you must pay another fare. Of course this is only enforced against the skells that ride the system.

peacemak3r Posted January 30, 2012 Share #17 Posted January 30, 2012 I didn't see bums on the Washington Metro. Unless if you did. So just because you have not seen a bum on the Washington Metro, no where else in the world has bums on their transit systems?? Get real guy. Whenever you were on the Metro, I bet there was another bum on a different train of the Metro, unless you are some sort of alien and can be at every train running at the time.

Where in the rules does it say that? Is it even a rule? If that is the case, then why does the MTA recommend that people go through Coney Island during the (D)/(N) reroutes?
