Re: Man arrested, charged with hate crime(Re: Man wanted for tirade on LIRR)

Posted by Henry R32 #3730 on Thu May 24 19:45:41 2018, in response to Re: Man arrested, charged with hate crime(Re: Man wanted for tirade on LIRR), posted by Bill Newkirk on Thu May 24 19:28:02 2018.

Here was my scenario, but since the girls involved were white it didn't make national news:

1. Two girls are kicked out of a closed car by the conductor. They proceed to sit in the otherwise silent car I am in and play loud videos.
2. Annoyed, I state loudly "they're called headphones."
3. They respond with "this isn't the quiet car!"
(since the only other open car had basically a frat party going on, this was the the quietest it was going to get).
4. I respond with "Most people already know it's rude to play sound in public, at least those not raised by wolves."

Blissful silence.

Sometimes saying something with not-very-subtle insult is needed (not to the level of the ass in the original video of course).

Also, I'd like to point out how many arguments occur due to corralling people into as few cars as possible, and reiterate my desire for the frequent, fully open trains that eliminating on board fare collection and going to turnstiles/validators would provide. Dude in the other video would have been able to get off and wait for the next one if they weren't every hour and didn't require a new ticket.
