My sympathy to the train operator who this was forced on and who is now traumatized.
@zilla25000 and how about some sympathy for the busy commuters?
A lot of people jump in front of the trains. They don’t publish this in the news because they don’t want.l copycats. Same goes for jumping off the bridges. Ask somebody who works for the MTA or lives near the manhattan bridge. It’s more common than you think
People are so heartless, this is why I stay to myself
Right, no empathy at all. It's so sad....
Trying to blame the national guard is crazy
Exactly 💯💯
