Over 400 subway train windows have been smashed.

Consider every time I take a subway train the past few weeks, I could find am empty train if I just walked further down and I could've done anything inside without being noticed.

Little Boiled Dinner DeBlasio doesn't understand boundaries. Restricting access to dinosaur shaped organic chicken nuggets is not going to do it here. With no authority available in our increasingly matriarchal society standards continue to fall as the horde desperately searches for a baseline boundary of behavior.

The thing that's crazy to me is, isn't there like one suspect? One guy causing all of this. I hope they can stake him out somewhere and catch him.

Why should they? They'll just ask the state and city for more money. MTA is not in the business of saving money.

I would not be surprised if the MTA were breaking these windows themselves. just to get funds.
