I have to point out one, of the many, that is bothering me more than most.
The surveillance cameras weren't working!
It just reinforces every dysfunctional and unresponsive government stereotype out there, and it really illustrates New York City's problems.
Statistics show a major crime problem. People don't feel safe, and this just adds to it.
As one New Yorker said after that horrible incident, "I still have to go to work." Yes, riders will not abandon the subways. They will spend more time looking over their shoulders. They have to. The city can't and won't do it for them.
