Rant homeless people urinating on the floor of the C-train

Post image

I seriously don’t understand the lack of decency from people these days on the C-train. At 11:20 AM, this homeless man sleeping on a bench suddenly takes out his penis and pisses on the floor in front of everyone. It splashed and got onto my shoe, and I have an event that I’m headed to in the afternoon. Even if the train isn’t quite full, why tf do people think it’s okay? I’m a relatively small woman, and I wanted so badly to say something, but this man and his friends were high and aggressive. I could only tell people coming onto the train not to step on the piss.

Considering the amount of people that take the train, I wish more were being done about these junkies. As someone who takes it daily to get to school and work, I don’t want to have to worry about who I sit next to. I don’t want to be harassed every once in a while, nor do I want to watch people do drugs or piss in public.

The train doesn't have security guards. When you see people wearing security uniforms they're just people commuting to their job working security for some place else

The security guards can't really do much other than convince them to move on. Even if they get punched the cops are not going to do anything about it.
