[quote=Anonymous]Time for "broken windows" policing of the metro. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broken_windows_theory If there were one or two metro police actively policing each station, so that you could see a physical presence, and the police came down hard on the petty stuff, it would be much less likely to escalate. Same if they went after each and every major offender, hard. With all the cameras in the station and smart cards, this should not be difficult police work. As it is, people are getting robbed on the trains and no one is finding the perpetrators. Kids are beating up passengers and not getting charged. People get away with something small, they do it again, or go bigger. 15 years ago, they were arresting kids who brought food into stations. Remember John Roberts confirmation? http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/01/07/AR2006010701003.html Now this is OTT, but clearly, metro needs to get back to a zero tolerance policy.
