Today, after leaving a bar I fell asleep on the Q train heading home. I awoke at 5am in Coney Island, end of the line, to a cop poking me with his baton. He gave me a ticket for "Subway Vagrancy" even though I have a job and an apartment. He didn't ticket the homeless man next to me covered in piss. FML

i hate the subway cops, why? Because they are always on the news for insitigating fights and shooting people. I know there are alot of ******* homless people on Q. I wish the cops would stop doing stupid shit and make them leave the train. I did not enjoy sitting next to the homless man who smelled like pee this morning.

You have a place to sleep and a steady income, and you're whinging because someone who is severely down on his luck - someone whose life is ******, one might say if one could think of anyone outside oneself - didn't get in trouble with the law? Jesus. H. Christ. Get over yourself. It's unfortunate that you got a ticket, sure. It's the end of your post that means I have no sympathy for you, none at all. You're seemingly too ungrateful and self-involved to even consider empathy.

that freeekinnn sucks, sorry :( #57, youre stupid he has the right to feel upset that the homeless guy didnt get a ticket, like are you serious? most homeless people can do sumthing about there situation and they just choose not to. Its still unjust no matter what. This is America for goodness sakesss.

a lot of my heart goes out to the homeless...it sickens me the lack of sympathy they get.

Who cares if he is homeless, I thought we were supposed to be treated as equals. If that was so he should get a ticket. He can pay it off in jail time or go get a job at mcdonalds. By giving the homed guy a ticket your punishing the succesfull people who try in life, and don't sit on their butt and use welfare. Bunch of left wing bullshit.

#59: oh noez i'm sssstoopid like. Would he have been that annoyed if an evidently more successful man beside him didn't get one? Then he'd bitch about picking on him because he wasn't as well off. #61: how on Earth will he get a job without a fixed address? Or welfare, for that matter? And yeah, that guy who gets locked and passes out on the train is a real winner. Some people have bad lives, and the odds are against them from the start. Some manage to overcome them, and more power to them. Some don't, through now fault of their own, and that should break your heart if you have one. If you lose your job, and don't get another one in time not to lose your house, you're pretty screwed, and America doesn't seem to do a lot to help in that case.

Of course he ticketed you, because the real vagrant wouldn't be able to pay the fine.
