Apparently theres a poll ongoing about safety on the Skytrain. You know what is the scariest aspect of any commute for me? When COPS WITH GUNS get on the train. Ive never felt threatened by a fellow commuter, but some black-uniformed cop with iron on his (or her) hip? Thats scary. The gun could get swiped and fired, or could get drawn in a dispute with a commuter... the idea of either occurring in the closed confines of a moving Skytrain car is TERRIFYING. Plus theres a whole police state aesthetic (fare evaders up against the wall!) that is far more intimidating than reassuring. If there have to be cops on the trains - and Im really not sure there does - do they HAVE to have guns? news1130/2013/11/24/transit-riders-polled-on-safety/comment-page-1/#comment-146429
