[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My Indian-American aunt was harassed by a bunch of African-American teen girls on the metro a few years back. Thankfully, she got down at the next station and took a later metro.  Mainly because she did not want to escalate the situation.  Such kind of group animalistic behavior has been experienced by many  immigrants in their home countries where lawlessness runs rampant. We recognize it well when criminal behaviour and group frenzy start to happen and we remove ourselves from such situations.  She would have done the same in UK if  she saw a group of swastika tattooed skinheads harassing her.   [b]Race has nothing to do with it. Criminal behaviour only grows when there is no consequence.[/b] [/quote]

Unfortunately, in DC there are no consequences to criminal behavior.  I wish folks would take race out of the equation.  The fact of the matter is DC pacifies criminals.  Why is this allowed?  People who walk around assaulting other people should be punished.  I do not care what race or ethnicity you are.  If you harm others, then you should suffer the consequences of your actions.  People should be able to ride the metro without worrying about being attack.  If criminals do not face consequences for their negative behavior, then that is a problem in a civil society.   Safety should be a priority on the metro. [/quote]
