"New York, Philadelphia, Boston, and Chicago have had subways and commuter lines for over 100 years. The problem doesn't exist in those cities."

New York, Philadelphia, Boston and Chicago are all 'crime clusters' so your argument 'negates' nothing.

"Don't worry. Nobody is going to be building a subway in Montgomery or Mobile anytime soon."

Probably true. There aren't that many idiots in Montgomer or Mobile.

"If you folks want to sit in traffic burning gas and refilling your tank at $60 every two days, be my guest."

Beats sitting in a 'crime cluster cesspool city' masquerading as civilization.

f you see some of these animals, it is definately not civilization.

I always say that there are more wild animals outside the Bronx Zoo than in it.

It always pays to know the facts before you go spouting off. You'd be surprised to learn that the crime rate is lower in NYC than in Mobile.

Mobile, Alabama has a Relocation Crime Lab Index of 212 which is a higher crime rate than the national average

NYC (Manhattan), New York has a Relocation Crime Lab Index of 156 which is a higher crime rate than the national average

Of special interest to women the incident of rape per 10,000 is 59 in Mobile and 19 for Manhatten. You're better off in NYC ladies.

FYI, in the interest of fairness, I chose Manhatten because it's the population center of NYC. Queens had a much better crime rate and the Bronx had a crime rate comparable to Mobile.

Seems like most of your bigoted opposition to mass transit is born of ignorance.
