A mugger slugged a Harlem straphanger and shoved him down the stairs before swiping his wallet, cops said.

The 50-year-old male victim was waiting on the northbound C train platform at the 145th Street station around 4:30 p.m. April 14 when the suspect walked up to him and demanded, “Give me money,” authorities said.

The victim refused and walked away – prompting the suspect to follow him, according to police.

The brute then punched the victim in the face, hit him in the head with a glass bottle and shoved him down a flight of stairs before snatching his wallet, cops said.

The suspect – shown in surveillance images released late Tuesday – fled the station and is still on the lam.

I am convinced that there is a genetic component in behavior. It simply cannot be otherwise.

‘Straphanger’ has such negative connotations, especially for the armless. ‘Seatless riders’ is much more equitable.

I am convinced that there is a genetic component in behavior. It simply cannot be otherwise.

I completely believe so, perhaps initiated and enhanced by generational environmental conditioning.

In a classic definition, this would be racism, of course, but we don't want to confuse that useful approbation with 'science'.

When they finally catch this perp, if ever the liberal judge will sentence him to community service like “get out the (democrat) Vote”.

Not living in NYC.

Here in the South, many of us carry routinely. There are fewer of these sorts of interactions. I am not saying they don’t happen, but that changes the calculus.
