Several posters don’t understand what would drive someone to do such a heinous act towards another person.
I don’t understand why someone would do something like that. Attempted murder for sure.

More like “how” could someone do this… not human

Anything short of attempted murder is a disservice and slap to the face of the victim.

As we just found out, Hawkins is being charged with attempted murder.
Many have justified fears of riding the subway in New York City. They say you have to constantly be on your guard.
You have to be in a constant defensive position and stay aware. Have your back to a wall if possible to keep people from attacking reom behind. Ridiculous this all has to even be considered. 😞

New York Governor Kathy Hochul has been touting the safety of the city’s subway system despite recent horrifying events.
Have we heard from Kathy Hochul’s PR department about how subways in New York are safest they’ve ever been?

The only reason Kathy says that is because she has security and doesn’t ride the subway.

Tuesday, saw a random man shoved into the path of an oncoming subway train. Authorities say the man was hit by the train and sustained a head injury, they say it’s a miracle he wasn’t injured further or killed.
