I’ve never felt unsafe on the subway. Sure, I’m always looking around to be aware of my surroundings, but the only thing I see is people just trying to live, get from A to B, entertain, (have unexpected bodily functions), argue, and actually be good to each other. It’s actions like you would find in any other major city, but NYC has such density that people generally live and let live. The article is absolutely spot on and reinforced my experiences that perception is driving this frivolous law enforcement spending, not statistics.
