WTF????


"One rider pulled the emergency brake during the panic, stalling the train above the East River. Pugh said she aimed to raise awareness about how people treat the homeless. She was unapologetic to commuters stuck in the subway with no air conditioning for nearly a half-hour.


“Of course they’ll be angry with me, but I guess I’m just doing me. I’m waking people up with my shows, my acts,” she told Reuters."

This freak needs to be locked up for something, what kind of whack job does this sort of thing for attention/publicity?

What bothers me most is that she's unapologetic. She's going to do something crazy again. It won't be the last time we hear from her.

If I'm reading it right, it's two more involved in this prank. Or she's lying. Much more bizarre that two more people would join in on that.

A seemingly fedup straphanger, apparently in on the caper, smacks the container out of her hand — sending the critters flying and commuters scattering for cover. Another man in a Giants jersey, who Pugh said was also an actor, is later seen in the video punching the disturbed woman.

Yeah it seems more like she was making fun of their plight to draw attention to herself.

Even I'm angry at the person who pulled the emergency brake and I'm a transplant who wasn't on the train.

There are ways to raise awareness and this is not one of them. People nowadays will do anything to get fame because it's easier than learning how to work hard. Quite sad, actually.
