Just wait until some 400 pound man resists arrest and has a heart attack.

Police should just round up the men and tell them they have to sit in the back of the bus. Put them in their place.

That’s what the socialist justice warriors want.

I remember when I was a kid and my father used to talk to me about how amazing it is that there is a high level of implicit trustworthiness in public society, that, for example, when you give someone a $20 bill they give you change for a 20 and not try to say that you only handed over a 10, and that that level of public honesty is repeated millions of times each day all over the country, and even the world, and if that spirit of honest public cooperation and trustworthiness ever disappears we are all in big trouble.

I believe that it’s something along those lines that makes some of us so angry at the behavior discussed in this thread, that it’s not just a subway seat we are talking about but a level of commitment to a peaceful honest society that today — with paid rioters and looters and prosecutors joining lynch mobs — seems under grave and immediate threat. The louts in these photos are a very visible expression of that threat to the public order, to the whole fabric of implied public honesty that is the deep foundation of public order.

Well said, Sam. Well said.

That's the world we're losing....
