For switching subway cars? How's that a crime? He paid for the ride didn't he? Or do the people of color are still only allowed to ride in the back on the subway?

it is illegal to switch from one car to another car (regardless if the train is in motion or not). that's a crime/fact, in NYC of course.

Is that a joke? Why would anyone vote to make that a crime?

I through that three felonies a day is an exageration, but I'm definitely guilty of switching train cars.
