[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But the fact is people dont want to get stabbed or pushed onto the tracks. That doesn't mean they don't want this addressed. I would be happy to pay for more police rather than a 600 million dollar multi shelter boondoggle and Bowsers  declaration that D.C. will now provide year round shelter. Still, thats DCs priority so I guess it is up to MD and VA to work with wmata on rising metro crime that no doubt impacts their commuters as much as DC residents? [/quote]

Of course, no one wants to get stabbed or thrown onto the tracks.  And solutions like you suggest do need to be looked at.

The question I'm asking is, until those changes are made, heaven forbid it happens again and you're standing nearby, make sure you're just as at peace with not taking action and watching kids get the crap beaten out of them, as you'd be if your child or you yourself were the victim and everyone else stood by and no one intervened.  Because it doesn't work to not be willing to act yourself, but to expect others to act when you or your loved one is the victim.[/quote]

I have not watched the video - guessing it all happened faster than it appears. How were the police eventually alerted?[/quote]
