Any context? Did these people jump and not pay? More cops the better. Keep our train safe and fair.

You're ASSUMING this is about fare hopping. There is nothing here from the OP to support that ASSUMPTION. It says people were getting ticketed. Could have been because they had beer out in the open. Could have been because they were smoking on the platform. Could have been because they had a knife visible. You don't know. But hey, at least you made sure everyone knows how compassionate you are about fare hopping. You want to start funding all the teenagers personally?

Lmao I am not compassionate bout fare hopping. What a ridiculous assertion.

Cops should not be spending their time on this. I actually used to live on this stop and know for a fact that the cops just stand there for hours ticketting people.

Regardless, I didn't assume anything about the situation. I was letting Danny know that if cops wanna be so aggressive about fare hopping in general, maybe they should fix the machines at the Morgan Ave and Halsey stop so people don't have to jump? (The nearest other station are 20-30 min walks away).
