From the Anon who recently asked about LA's subways comes another question:

How bad is crime on the Blue Line?

(A couple articles from the L.A. Weekly, if you're interested.)

Crime is terrible on the blue line. I can't think of a single trip I've taken where myself/fellow passengers were not ejaculated upon.

Seriously, you're not getting off in Compton, why do you care?

I don't "care," strictly speaking; I'm just interested in rail transit lines on the mainland because of the fuss over the plans for one here on Oahu.

Crime can be measured by the amount of niggers you encounter. the nigher the nigger count, the more dangerous the area becomes.

Going by that logic, the blue line has a relatively low crime rate, as most of the area's nigger population moved out of the area after 1992.

Anyone who thinks that rail transit will cause crime is obviously a nigger themselves.

I know, but the line runs through Compton and Watts, which is why I'm asking. (Not saying the existence of the line increases or decreases crime, just that there are a hell of a lot of people killing other people in those areas.)

Hmm, I've used the Red and Yellow lines of LA Metro, and they both used the honor system for ticket enforcement. I'm assuming that the Blue line is the same. Isn't it about time that ticket barriers are installed, especially with the increasing usage of rail?

A unified Metrolink-rail-bus smartcard system might be a solution as well, and would do well to show SF how it's done (SF is currently failing with TransLink, with infinite delays on BART/Muni integration).

Bleh, I didn't read fully; you're from Oahu.

Anyway, I can't speak for the Blue line's crime reputation, although in San Francisco, the BART (heavy rail) passes through cities like Oakland (murder city), yet seems very safe to me every time I pass through. BART uses ticket barriers, while down here in LA, it's all based on honor. And to be honest, I've NEVER EVER been ticket-checked on the Red and Yellow lines. If the Blue line does have crime problems, you can see why.

If Oahu has a crime problem as much as LA (doubt it), then putting a mass transit system w/o ticket barriers will be suicide. But the addition of rail probably won't BRING crime to the area. Besides, as an island with limited resources, Hawaii needs to be thinking about efficiency; any more cars on the island will probably sink the entire damn thing.

I used the ride this train all the time, and hardly ever witnessed any crime transpiring.

That said, never get off anywhere between Del Amo and Pico.

It isn't so bad, I use the Red train more often (my area) but every time I have used the blue to get around, all was well.

So then the Blue Line's worst crime-related problem is people who don't pay the fare. Cool.

LISTEN TO THIS MAN.

Living by the blue line I can tell you that between Pico and Del Almo you'll see nothing more than a bunch of mexicans and niggers that will ejaculate on your face just because they can.
