OMG... I just yelled at a crazy man on the T... I felt myself getting angrier every time he tried to bother another passenger. He started off calling a Latino man "papi", then moved towards a Black woman saying "you know what your problem is...?" The man next to me was about to be the third one, and I'd had about enough of the bullying. At first I'd thought, he's drunk, there's no reasoning with him, but then he got way too close. I started to raise my voice, asking about the red emergency button. When the train stopped at the next station, I shouted down the platform to the MBTA officer, "can you get this guy off the train???" Of course, by then señor loco had already deboarded, but at least the efforts of a few concerned T riders were not in vain.
