    And as you’ve tapdancer around, you want me to believe the subway is unsafe. My point is simply that if you want to call the subway unsafe, then you have to admit driving is much worse. Whether you’re stabbed or you are spread along a 1/4 mile or pavement, it’s still dead.

      No, “I’ve tapdancer” around nothing. You are attempting to force the narrative that I’m claiming driving is perfectly safe, when in reality I claimed no such thing. All I’m saying is that “pre pandemic levels of crime” is still pretty bad. I absolutely guarantee the NYC subway by itself has more crime than the entire country of the person who earlier said “I can leave my phone charging and go to the bathroom” on their train. Safer? Sure maybe. Safe**.**? No.

        There you go, that was my point, thank you. That if you’re going to claim the subway is dangerous, you should at least say it’s safer than driving.
