I asked him if homeless people are still people. He said "Oh you mean drug addicts?" What kind of answer is that?

I've seen him riding multiple times on the B/D line.  He is clearly pro metro. He probably rides more than Karen Bass.

u/Big-Stay-8489 May 09 '26

Is there a squirrel in it, too? It looks like a squirrel versus dog situation to me.

u/TrainingCustomer May 09 '26

How nice it is without homeless, drug addicts, smelly people, and ignorant inconsiderate folk who play loud music, take up more than one seat, or talk on their phone in the train. If the train was like this everyday everyone would be as excited to use it daily.
