Exactly what I commented!

Wasn't even a good lie.

REAL TALK 👍 I wouldn't take my family for sure

😁 c'mon now easy, somebody's feeling might get booboo

You're not God to say she's lying

That "Chief Safety Officer" is full of it, he did a good job contrasting her words with reality. I'm eating my hat if she's regularly on there with her family.

At least Journalism isn't totally dead.

Capitalists in America think you can throw money at things and solve a problem without addressing cultural issues. To the American capitalist money solves everything. To the American capitalist cultural issues don't exist.

LA is homeless central. Not surprised.

I ride subways and buses pretty much exclusively when I travel to Europe and Asia. All give me pleasant experiences. I travel very often, including third-world countries. Nowhere else is even close to what people in LA are facing. I recently went to NYC and Chicago and tried their subways and buses too. All I have to say is even they are much better than LA. California is a joke now.

What makes life easy is having health care. Europeans have it, Americans don't.

It’s a real tragedy what has happened in L.A. Way back in the late 70’s on my first visit, there wasn’t any subway of course but we were able to drive downtown, park the car and walk around without any incident and no homeless on the streets. Downtown had already gone down with the big stores having closed by then but we didn’t feel unsafe at all.

but you keep voting for this.

Public safety is not just the job of the police. Yes, more police can help but a lot of those people were going through mental health issues that are not the job of the police to fix.

@@vandreadparty exactly more preventative measures than reactionary measures, not saying one is not needed but it has to increase when one is too much

@@TheRandCrews Yeah but the problem is that mental health counselors and social workers never see increases (whether in personnel or salary) but police always see increases. We should have both. The police do way too much.

@@vandreadparty A police presence tends to fix mental health issues. Crazy or not, they recognize authority. Most people do. That's why some people don't want law enforcement in their neighborhood. Truth is, they are needed to keep everyone safe. The media tends to downplay their jobs but they along with EMS are the only ones accountable for the publics safety. Politicians and the media need to take it more seriously. But the media loves "If it bleeds, it leads." So legislation needs to be passed to demonetize violence or make it more costly for "artists" to put violence in front of the general public. Instead of the government paying reparations. Have these billion dollar companies pay for it by using a part of their budget to pay citizens who claim they were exposed to violent content. Example: Have a claim button on KZfaq videos that show violence even if it's fake violence. Viewers can claim money for being exposed to it if the choose. This comes out of the production budget. If the production is non violent content, then nothing is paid to the viewer.

carry a weapon don't rely on police to protect you it doesn't necessarily have to be a gun.

Agree! A liars voice breaks and shrills as an autonomic response when the brain gets confused and crossed between what it knows as fact (the unsafe conditions) and forcing out a lie (allowing her family to ride). Good job Marc. You forced her hand and exposed the inherent problem within the organization; no accountability based on perpetual lies and political verbage.

@felipecourto...: In other words you're saying she's 2 faced. There certainly seems to be doubts in her facial expressions!

Lol she wouldnt

​@AlexPG1989 i hear you but shes ex fbi. ccw

Resources my friend and not enough of them unfortunately....

I miss the old days when we could just arrest people and lock them away forever. Things were better.

Yeah and tell the Homeless to get a real job.

where will the homeless go?

The new generation cars will however have 2 cars open

I know the train cars are suppose to be replaced. Maybe they'll replace them with trains where you can walk from one car to another. It would also simplify having officers ride and walk all the cars instead of being stuck in one car until the next stop.

Metro purchased new CRRC HR400 trains to replace some of the older trains. Should be able to jump between cabins in the new ones.

@@Cal3000 That's good to hear. Sweet! Thanks

In NY we just tune em out 😆

People are so inconsiderate. I'll bet the smokers wouldn't like it if people farted in their face while on the train.

@@Thunderbyrd. 🤣 I’d love to see that !

@@Thunderbyrd. mexicans are like that

shes ex fbi.

​@@Joseph-ke3xcI think it's likely that metro is waiting for their new trains to be delivered on the B line to roll out this policy there so they will have something to protect!

Blame the non-orthodox chosen

Flix cre eightR live in LAmoved back to Texas which is crime some what

Yeah, just ignore the blacks doing all the crime. But the White lady is at fault!

CA is drowning in expensive bureaucracy and bureaucrats (like her) cuz they simply are unwilling to put these social misfits away. Course the numbers of such are overwhelming.

@@xenuno lived in Cali for while came back texas

@@alaplex100 Not many people do. Courage or stupidity to take that chance.

@@markwred That 5% the other way will catch up sooner or later. Once you take public transit in places like China, Japan, Singapore it's hard to deal with the BS that is LA public transit or frankly anything in America. It's third world compared to others.

@@damienyuen7718 yup. Coming back from those countries, LA feels like a third world country. its absolutely insane how dirty it is in LA.

We used to be on trains at all times until the city hired these unarmed ambassadors just to save a buck...

that what civilians are for why waste tax dollars on something that's your responsibility to protect yourself most people are lazy at protecting themselves they think having other people do it is easier.

@@ThroughMyEyes2020 The metro security head said previously adding more LAPD or officers from other places wont change anything because their bosses arent in metro and not accountable. All the new officers clearly just hang out in pairs on the stations doing nothing but watch YT and talk to their partners. All while getting paid 5x what the ambassadors do.

The problem's pretty much everywhere now, whether it's the Blue Line or the Red Line. Just yesterday as I was coming out of "Ratchet Ass Norwalk" (as I call the city), I smelled a blunt being lit up on the Green Line because some Bebe's kids were smoking weed like it was all gravy. Had to switch cars at Harbor Fwy because I was not in the mood for all that madness and ignorance

@Alex G Metro used to give people the option to either take the bus or the subway to get to their destination outside of whatever unfortunate place they live in rather than being forced to take the redline

she lives in Newport Beach. No way shes coming up to LA to ride the Metro lol

The big difference is that most countries (especially Asian) have transit officers at every station and for that matter well lit stations. Here in the U.S. we put little money into public infrastructure so our stations are old looking, poor lighting and no transit authority to be found.

the govt keeps people in line in those countries, esp singapore. No messing around there.

When I was on the red line today, a woman vaped tobacco in the car as two pudgy 'ambassadors' stood nearby and played on their phones. On the way back, cigarette smoke so thick I had to change cars at the next stop.

The ambassadors are actually *paid* to be lazy, useless blobs??

As opposed to the officers who were on the phones in the platform and not even in the train but probably get paid 5x what the ambassadors do.

Unbiased 😂😂😂😂

They say that there have been 20 deaths on the train . Who were they and what was the cause of death ?? Names, faces and facts with the reports

Stop Yelling!

Violent crime can still be down. Idk cause I haven't seen the statistics. The news ONLY reports the crimes so it can give the illusion that there is a lot of crime. I would say look at the statistics, not the news if you want to know whether it is going down or not.

Crime was much worse in the 70s and 80s. Violent crime has been going down for decades but it went up somewhat in the last couple of years. Covid affect added to it

@@mrxman581 reread what you just wrote. Smh thats the dumbest most arrested development comment on youtube. Use your common sense. Why would they cry out for more police if crime was so low!? Why are stores closing and ppl leaving? Seriously you cant be this gullible. 🤷🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️ c'mon man the news is a non stop feed of criminal activity. So lemme ask u this ppl in the 70s and 80s was stealing catalytic converters and doing internet fraud and scams and home invasions!? 🤔 the only thing might be comparable is drug crimes. Crime is not down and this is coming from a former gang member and street dude in the 80s/90s bro im personally hyper aware! FOH! u are exactly the type they make news for. Don't let them disrespect your brain!

I agree. It's common to see groups of cops hanging around chatting with each other on the upper levels- But today I saw a group of them down on the lowest level at one station and a group of LA COUNTY SHERIFFS (whoo, remember them?) at another. Sadly, no enforcement in the train cars. On one, a woman vaped tobacco as two pudgy 'ambassadors' stood nearby and played on their phones. On another, cigarette smoke so thick I had to change cars at the next stop.

Don't worry! At least the regional connector will open! Then you don't have to use the red line

@Alex G Gonna be 5 years in December

I use to think that. But red has taken that honor.

@@FlixCreEightR doubt it just more people who ride the red line are likely to call and report crimes,.. I seen someone bash out windows and open the emergency doors ,. Then threatened the driver with large rocks when he went to close the doors,. Then he started bashing the rocks on his window,… from watts all the way to Long Beach 5th street station,. And nobody called the police,..

From what I witnessed, the Blue and Red/Purple Lines are neck and neck with the Expo and Green Lines not too far behind (with somebody getting unalived at Crenshaw Station recently)

@@hoodmistressreloaded i mean I guess I have encountered problems on all the trains even the gold line,. In the nicer parts,. The 60 bus was always a moving show at all hours,. Of the day-night 😅 Still safer than the freeway,. If you do the math 🧮 🤔🫠

That’ll never happen. The leeches of society will cry discrimination.

This experience confirms what the metro security head said previously adding more LAPD or officers from other places wont change anything because their bosses arent in metro and not accountable. All the new officers clearly just hang out in pairs on the stations doing nothing but watch YT and talk to their partners. All while getting paid 5x or more what the ambassadors get paid and if anyone in metro complains they just tell them to "kick rocks" because they know there is nothing Metro can do and inevitably the complaints of "simple minded citizens" will just lead to them being back with a contract extension after an incident happens which they never were going to prevent anyways but "simple minded citizens" think just any cops will solve this issue.

@Alex G Keep pressing your luck with car accidents, needs to be considered as well

This experience confirms what the metro security head said previously adding more LAPD or officers from other places wont change anything because their bosses arent in metro and not accountable. All the new officers clearly just hang out in pairs on the stations doing nothing but watch YT and talk to their partners. They do need better communication but they also need some actual guards but that are actually accountable to metro not to other people. The current ones can do absolutely nothing and tell metro to "kick rocks" if they have an issue.

Burbank is a lovely area. Unfortunately the dregs of society of slowly making their way over there too.
