That assertion is even less supported by evidence.

Do tell. I find it hard to believe that the people shooting up, smoking on the train, etc etc are paying riders. It’s comically easy to bypass the turnstile.

I have no idea how you think you my comment is racist, at all. The fuck? I don’t have hard evidence that fare evaders are the main problem children on the trains but don’t pretend it’s an absurd assertion. A train fare is $2-2.50, and there are subsidized programs as well. Let’s not pretend the people jumping a turnstile are just down on their luck or some nonsense.

Another commenter referred to the problems of people smoking and shooting heroin on the train and your response was to the effect of "oh you mean black people".
