From the comments, the general consensus is that bag checks — whether you agree with them or not — are a useless show. I rarely comment on sites, but I did on this one hoping that Gothamist can use their journalistic resources and look into the issue I raised. Here’s my comment: A potential bonus side effect might be a general decline in subway crime because of the increased police presence. But, yeah, I think bag checking is generally ineffective in preventing terrorism and all for show. Something I am truly concerned with is why many (most?) doors between cars are locked and marked “Emergency Only.” So, how do you get out of a burning or smoke- or poison-filled car? You don’t. Sometime in the last few days, I read that the MTA has no intention of changing the rule that those doors remain locked citing “daily safety” as the issue. Of course, I now can’t find the article that addressed this but I will be sure to go out of my way to ride in the car with the conductor. —Kambri<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kambricrews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/948"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kambricrews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kambricrews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kambricrews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kambricrews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=948"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kambricrews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/948\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kambricrews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=948"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kambricrews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=948"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kambricrews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=948"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
