Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Are people really so dumb they believe that's a decision directly form the police department? No wonder you suck at elections...

This whole post is dumb as hell. If $100,000 is all the money they collected, in a year, in NYC, that tells me the cops are ignoring the issue. If the city was collecting millions and millions, then it would be an ACAB story.

I'm reading the penalty is typically $100, let's roll with that. Reading they system just passed 1-billion riders for the first time in 2022. (Wow.)

$104,000/$100=1,040 people busted (assuming once charge each). 1040/1B= 0.00000104 of the total riders incurred a ticket.

Not seeing the percent of those riders that were jumpers, but it's going to be a few orders of magnitude larger than 0.00000104. LOL, the street cops are utterly ignoring this thing.
