inside the train station just after 5:30 p.m...

That's rush hour time, when the station would be wall-to-wall people.

So much for avoiding MBTA in the wee hours.

In light of Massachusetts’ new abortion law, the phrase: “the fatal stabbing of a man at South Station” is now considered a standard late-term abortion.

I’m going to speculate that the perpetrator is some insane, violent felon who has been released multiple times for prior violent crimes.

If the dead guy was white and the killer was “of color” he'll be sentenced to community service.

I would say that is a very, very safe bet. Equally safe would be a muslim, just doing what muslims do.

In 1974, Willie Horton murdered 17-year-old gas station attendant Joseph "Joey" Fournier during a stick up and left his body in a dumpster. In June 1986 Horton failed to return after a weekend furlough from a minimum security facility, whence he traveled to Maryland and assaulted a young couple, repeatedly raping the female. He is still in prison in Maryland.

During the 1988 presidential campaign, Democratic rival Al Gore brought up the incident to hamper Michael Dukakis's chances. After Dukakis secured the nomination, an "unaffiliated" poltical action committee (PAC) released the imfamous "revolving door advertisement.

“Boston police have not released information about identity of the suspect. The department is asking those who have information surrounding the incident to contact the police. . ..”

Well, maybe if the Boston Police Department would plaster around a description of the stabber, they could get some information. Why is this a secret? s/
