Encountered a sus man on the train. He had music up very high, typical junkie, and many people were giving him death stares, which probably wasn't the best idea considering he could become violent. He was filming out the window on his phone with the flash on, and then turned the camera towards my friend and I, and stared staring. I was considering pressing the emergency button and telling the driver to yeet him off the train, but we just moved to another carriage. I don't think anyone else really gauged what was going on, because after the man started banging on the train window yelling out, "Benchod", they probably just avoided his direction.
When I see junkies around in this city, I know they're humans going through a rough time, but it's almost like these people have been bitten by zombies, and need an antidote. Unfortunately it's not as simple as getting a gun full of goo and they turn back.
Good call, that’s an obscenity. (sister f*ker)
You should always do what keeps you the safest, nothing wrong with that. I feel you about the zombie behaviour
