Last week, the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) announced it was no longer issuing press statements about criminal incidents within the system...

Apparently BART isn't interested at all in protecting passengers.
Also, wouldn't it help to release crime videos so the public can potentially identify suspects and get them arrested?

Regressive liberalism at its worst!

Liberalism is a mental illness. It is also based on a hatred of white people and Western Civilization which is the real threat.

Mental illness can be treated, but the animosity to white culture and skin is probably incurable.

Well, if they're saying that releasing the videos would be racist, then we know who's committing the majority of the crimes. So what, exactly, have they accomplished, by announcing that?

It's sad that being honest, is considered being racist.

that nonwhites commit their crimes in highly visible ways easy to videotape while whites commit their crimes with briefcases, writing laws legalizing robbery, polluting the environment to the advantage of their corporations, stealing with the blessing of the courts (so much that their victims commit suicide or die from lack of health care), and conducting insider trading?

There are so many BART incidences with "teens". These teens seem to especially target Dublin-bound trains. I wonder why.
