The perp is sure to be caught if decoys were monitoring the lower Manhattan (mostly 14th St.) train stations... We need to get rid of these parasites of society.

Maybe, but then you'd be bitching that your commute was ruined when the MTA had to temporarily halt service to remove his corpse.

"grabs their purses and then runs into the subway tunnels." Unless this guy is a former MTA employee, who knows what he's doing in there, I think these robberies will resolve themselves pretty soon.

These people are look the same to me. And by that I mean suspects in police drawings. Do these things ever help catch criminals? At least he isn't wearing sunglasses and a hood like the Unabomber sketch.

He wouldn't get much if he stole mine - a withered paperback, a debit card with hardly any money in it, and a credit card near its limit. And a tampon. ENJOY!

He runs INTO the subway tunnels? That's pretty ballsy!

Maybe someone will shove him into the path of an oncoming train or onto the 3rd rail.
