Right, all those random bystanders who are assaulted on public transit we hear about all the time….

Maybe you missed all those reports in the past of people being assaulted for no reason on public transit. I know they were working on the problem, but I am sure it is still on everyones minds at times.

Then there are the random bystanders getting shot just walking down some street, or standing on the corner. (maybe waiting for a bus)

I admit to being a bit jaded ..... I am the rare Uber/Lyft drivers with two bullet holes in the back of his car. Cost me $1,000 to get that repaired correctly.

We do hear about it all the time. I have three personal acquaintances who were assaulted at the bus stop. One of whom was held up at gunpoint. You can pretend otherwise, but I'll pass.

You know what I hear about all the time? People getting killed in car wrecks because of negligent drivers. The less cars on the road, the better.

LOL. That's nice. You seem unhinged. You have fun on your lovely public transportation. I'll be in a comfy car laughing at you.

You all are jaded.

I've been walking/riding/using transit in the city for years, at all times of day and night, and I've never had an issue.

I've had more friendly and helpful interactions in the city than I have had in the "safer" parts of the city and the county.
