Would a very drunk, drunk, or mildly drunk person grab my mother and throw her in the traintracks?
I'm young, i'm twenty, and i've seen how people act when they are drunk. When i'm drunk I act stupid, but I do nothing to harm anyone, no physical contact.
But some drunks go insane....real insane.
I live in New York City, and sometimes my mom goes out late at the night, and she's in the subways.
A lot of drunk people use the subways, and i'm wondering what are the chances that they may just grab her, and throw her in the train tracks?
I've seen drunks on television, but...they are really "out there" when you meet them in reality. There's no telling what they would do

Secret (and please don't spread this around; we don't wanna create panic around here!)...there are more people than just drunks in this city who might do something you could call irrational. Eight million people call New York City home, plus all the people who come here to work, plus tourists. On any given day there might be anywhere between eleven and thirteen million people within the borders of the five boroughs.
The subway system carries somewhere between four and five million people daily.
Can you account for all kinds of behavior coming from that many people? You cannot.
So if how someone might behave is a major concern for you, the best possible strategy is never to walk out your front door.
I'd be more worried about a coyote dropping an Acme anvil from a roof onto my head.
