Subway Shoves

I thought, no I hoped I would never again have to write about another coward shoving an innocent person onto the subway tracks, no, not ever again, THIS YEAR!!; but here I am. A poor guy from Queens, NY was cowardly pushed onto the subway tracks by a homicidal, racist, scumbag loser, Erica Menendez. This has been a banner year for cowards and Psychos, I say cancel all New Years "celebrations" and let's just take a day to reflect on all the awfulness of 2012. I'll tell you a quick story years ago when I lived in NY, I was a wide eyed, happy go lucky, idiot. I used to stand on the yellow line of the subway, look down the tunnel like a jackass, and presume everything was fine, and that my looking would somehow magically make the train appear, until one day. As a gawked down the tracks I was approached by a homeless black man, he very calmly asked to talk to me, assuming he just wanted the usual buck and earful of pity, I obliged. He ushered me to the wall of the subway and told me, "D.T.A" I said what's that? he said, "don't trust anyone" he then explained to me that he saw me rubbernecking over the tracks and that I'm not to do that. He said keep your back to the wall at all times, don't let anyone get behind you, "they'll push you over!" I offered him a dollar, he declined. He turned down my dollar; but I NEVER forgot his words, to the nameless homeless man I learned from in 2003, THANK YOU!
