Where's the video?


It doesn't disappoint.




This is racist according to city council and probably many others! Haha

But to everyone else it's hilarious 🤣


It's hilarious to see someone get seriously injured - if you're the kind of person who thinks it's hilarious to see someone get seriously injured. But why would you want to be that kind of person?

Fare evasion crackdown on Metrobus is seeing strong results. Man evading fare on X2 arrested with loaded sawed off shotgun.

This is not at all hilarious. Do you see the man power needed to save him? Who will pay his hospital bills for his severe injuries? We all will.

Also, he must have been drunk or high.


Or dumb.

if you look at the replies , BLM DC says it would be racist https://x.com/tomroussey7news/status/1859662705982046318?s=46&t=Rw_jX1uyupQwvEwsjuQulQ


That doesn't say going after fare evaders is racist. It said the police have a history of racism.

No one is calling it racist. Some are questioning whether it is worth it, or whether public transit should be free.
the only reason you want it to be ā€œfreeā€ is to protect poc from being fined or prosecuted. What next make food free to reduce shoplifting?


I didn't say I wanted it free, although I wouldn't be opposed to that. People need to be able to get to work and family, even if they're poor. And for those that aren't poor, it would be good to encourage more people to take transit than to drive.

In the meantime, I'm fully supportive of this attempted crackdown.


Forgoing Air Jordan’s would pay for a lot of bus fares.

NP. I don't think innocent people getting injured is funny. But I think karma is hilarious. When you play stupid criminal games and then get your butt handed to you... that's pretty effing funny. I hope the paramedics asked him "was it worth it?"

Send him to jail and then have him work on a prison chain gang to scrub the Metro stations on his hands and knees.

About as funny as a cyclist breaking the law running a red light and getting hit by a car?

I saw two teen boys scaling a barrier in Rockville yesterday. It took one of them three tries but he did it. They looked like they just wanted to prove they could. No one paid any attention at all.

This enforcement program is such an easy way to get violent criminals off the streets and out of communities it really raises a lot of questions about the priorities of those who oppose fare enforcement.

I wonder if this incident will make more Metro employees hesitant to do fare enforcement since they're putting themselves at risk of serious harm.
