More Septa drama/fun

Feb 17, 2009 09:43

The Hi-speed rail ceases to entertain. Two trains pull into 69th street, and all parties leave in an orderly fashion. One bum-ish guy just stays in his seat for about 5 minutes after everyone departs. This is a guess, but I think that train was about to be decommissioned for the night. I bet he had nothing better to do, so he'd just hang out on the train as he's already paid. The conductor of the train must have called the SEPTA police knowing the bum-ish guy was going to make a scene. All the sudden, three officers and the conductor walk straight to him on the train, and although I can't hear it since I'm outside the train, we could tell what's going on. The bum-ish guy puts up a verbal fight of, I'm thinking, "I ain't bothering no one" or "Why you in my face." After about 5-10 minutes, the bum-ish guy leaves, and almost immediately afterward the train he's on leaves for the night. I'm betting the conductor wanted to go home and didn't want to deal with this shit right now. :)

The 10 or so passengers on my train were semi-shouting at the police from inside our train saying how much they hate the PO-lice, or commenting how that dumb (slang for black guy) was sent packing. I wanted to take a picture of the police pointing at the door to the bum-ish guy and post it with one of Chris Rock's rules of how to not get beat up by the police: Obey the law. Sadly, my phone was just about to die and I couldn't take a photo.
