No one needs a knife except for the police of military. We don’t have to butcher our own meat anymore. No one needs a knife. You’d think 9/11 would’ve been enough justification to ban knives, seeing as how 3,000 people were killed with just a few knives. But people forget.

I have not been there since maybe 2016. How has it changed?


I’d wait to visit until after Amtrak redevelops the station. The future plans look exciting, with the station doubling in size.

Amtrak just needed to gain redevelopment rights over the absent shopping mall leasee. Yhe first order of business is to clean up the place and make it safe.

Yes, I lived about a block away in the late 1990s and it was safe and nice, used to grab pretzels or burritos brothers there all the time, go to the movies, etc. It was like a nice mall.


I've been to the movies there. Loved shopping upstairs in my 20s anytime I passed through...they had a great batch of stores. And the canoli place!

How do we know the kid wasn’t stabbed with scissors?

Scissor control may be what we need.

I never feel unsafe at Union Station - even now. I take the train quite a bit. I hate this is happening. Where are the parents and why can't they be prosecuted.

I grew up running around Union Station (grew up a few blocks away). It was thriving, bright, bustling. Went back in the fall and was aghast at how depressing and run down it’s become.

So sad to hear about this crime.

I used to go there for lunch all the time between 2002 and 2009. It was not only safe, it was nice. Things sure have changed.
