Thanks, Progressives.
A beautiful young girl who fled war in her country is viciously attacked and murdered in the country where she sought refuge.
And y'all are concerned about the occupy D.C. thing? I guess you'd rather have feral kids or lunatics roaming looking for victims.

The more important question is why was this career criminal allowed to walk the streets?
And did he pay for the ride? This may sound silly in context but many cities in the world have systems that make fare jumping impossible, and it keeps people off the trains and platforms who only cause trouble.
To the second note: I would like to know what happened next! They must have called help, because the killer was arrested very quickly? How do we know that nobody came to her aid at all? When he left that's when things needed to happen quickly; pull emergency brake in train, help try stop the bleeding, call police and EMS etc.
He did not pay for the ride, and Charlotte doesn't have enough employees working to check riders or protect them.
So then install fare gates that cannot be jumped, like in other (non-US) cities.
PP here. I agree.

He’s homeless and like many homeless people, likely has serious mental illness.
Rs love to say we need better mental health access in this country after mass shootings by white men. Well, the same applies here.

This reminded me of the killing on the red line a few years ago, midday, 4th of July. That killer was even smaller, yet none of the large men present acted. Someone died then, too.
Exactly. Is this is how we’re going to react now as a society we are truly lost.
The bystander effect is real.
And considering how someone defending another subway victim in NY was prosecuted for his actions , I would be hesitant to jump in also.

1) you can't actually tell what happened.
2) Everyone was aware he was dangerous or acting strange.
3) Based on the blood it wasn't clear whether he or she was injured
4) everyone there was in danger and needed to GTFO
Lessons: if you are injured make it clear to others that you need assistance/ help
Rip your clothing off if needed so people can stop the bleeding
I've BTDT on a train with a guy with a knife and people acted really stupid. Also there is no way for any of us to stop him even if it's a group. No one else was armed and if that guy is on PCPs he's stronger than all of us combined.

one guy reacted (by making a video of her bleeding to death, so he could later post it to TikTok)
