Did this person have either of those? The fact that they got into an altercation with the guards and started recording them tends to make me think they didn’t.

He was, but progressives “cancelled” him for making the “radical” comment that mentally ill men shouldn’t be allowed to wander the streets assaulting Asian women.

I don’t know I don’t work for the MTA, but I imagine they have access to that data.

Right, and these guys were hired specifically for fare beating, which is why they told the individual to not use the emergency exit.

It seems as if they asked him to not go through the emergency exit and the he got into a verbal altercation and started recording them. He could have just went about his day and went through the turnstile exit, but everyone has to unnecessarily cause a problem these days.

So some kid trying to get “tiktok clout” messed around with the wrong people and found out?

Armed guards wouldn’t have gotten “emotionally” involved in a dispute with a person looking for tiktok clout. You’re basically implying that they were going to hand these type of guards a gun and say “good luck”.

Predicted what would happen? Armed guards have considerably more training and qualifications than unarmed guards, who take an 8 hour course and earn their security certificate. That’s like comparing a doctor to a medical assistant.

You were never supposed to use it unless it was an emergency, hence “emergency exit”.

Everyone that commits crime on the subway is definitely dutifully paying their fare before committing said crime!

The governor has also been using state funds to pay overtime to have more cops in the subway system since the election so.
Edit: Downvoting facts lol.

Yep, she went with what actual NYers want and not what the very loud “activists” and fringe groups want.

85% of NYers support more police on the subway, despite what the very loud fringe groups seem to think is what people want.

Every other major crime besides shootings are up pretty significantly year over year.
For anyone keeping track, felony assaults are back at about the year 2000 levels. We are back to pre 9/11 felony assault rates. Definitely something to be proud of as someone who was born and raised here!
Grand larceny’s are also at pre 9/11 levels.

People already treat ambulances like taxis, too late. Ask anyone that works in an ER or any EMS worker.
My point is it’s not exclusively “rich” people that get perceived special treatment.
Grass8989 t1_j1ar5hb wrote
A “pro-tip” for anyone concerned with preferential treatment in the ER. Take an ambulance, regardless of your symptoms, the priory is to get the EMS crew back on the street and you’ll be given a spot quicker than someone in the waiting room who has the same symptoms as you.

Realistically, nothings going to change. Anyone who’s worked in a hospital knows about “board members” and “trustees”.

How many lives do you think the $300 million he donated saved? How many underprivileged people were able to go to NYU medical school tuition free Due to his donations? It’s okay if he gets a private room and skips a couple of equal acuity cases in the ct scan line.

Agreed, I’d be more interested to see what the entire interaction was.
