  1. We need to realize that nobody (Mayor, Police, Politicians) can protect us from these. We have the right for self-defense by using all necessary means – military strength tasers, handguns, etc. I strongly believe that after 2-3 cases of strong resistance and punishment the attacks would dramatically decrease – these "deranged" people understand very well the difference. Imagine if the woman or the other passenger had a weapon – this may have been a success story to celebrate and our world would have been a little better place.

  2. In 1995, law enforcement sources say Foster was arrested for murdering his 82-year-old foster grandmother in a brutal beating at the age of 14. Six years later, he was arrested for stabbing his 21-year-old sister with a screwdriver. Then in 2010, he was arrested for attacking three workers at the Creedmore Psychiatric Center, where he was an inpatient. He was on parole until November 2024 at the time of last week's attack.

  3. It's something the citizens of New York want as they vote in democrats that support this kind of criminal behavior. You get what you vote for folks. If you vote for the party of criminal empowerment you are part of the problem.

  4. Proof our Justice System is an absolute FAILURE…What kind of judge let’s a man out in the streets with that type of violent history and mental heath issues. Also this is another reason we should not defund the police and why all states should have the right to bear arms. You have to be a complete fool to think you are safe in these times without a weapon to protect you especially after the pandemic everything has skyrocketed from crime to mental illness and we have yet to really feel the aftermath.

  5. pathetic people around them the man running away is a coward, i would've stood him down and fought him to help her, sad and people like him get away with it, they use the crazy excuse, when he killed his own grandma he should've been deemed a danger to society and given life without parole, and for this vicious act, he will probably get probation, as if nothing happen

  8. This is awful!!!!!! Praying that she keeps her site. 0:16 Did that guy really have to turn tale, leaving her COMPLETELY alone? This is what Wokeism (and feminism) have done to manhood. Masculinity has continually been degraded – now we have these males (some, not all) that run away, are cowardly, stand by and film on their phones – but when you're are afraid of being sued because they may be branded toxic or sexist. What a mess, thanks Wokeism.

  9. Women in NYC be very vigilant and avoid public transport or traveling alone unless absolutely necessary and especially at night. There are way many of these type of perpetrators walking around looking for their next victim. Sadly, I don't think she could've have prevented this since the man clearly has a lot of anger and strength and he was determined to make her pay for his own misery. Having pepper spray or a weapon such as a knife is not likely to save you and can potentially be used against you. There is a device that can be purchased on amazon that when pressed can make a loud noise, this is helpful. But again the best option is prevention, I personally have stopped taking public transportation and will be looking for work remotely. If anyone wants to hangout they can pick me up or I will only take Uber/Lyft. Stay safe!
