. Like, what was the point of that argument on the train? Was it worth risking someone's life? 
It just makes me think about how violent our society has become and how we need to work on communicating better and resolving conflicts peacefully.
. It's just not right when people get hurt like that over a stupid disagreement 
.
what's wrong with people these days? can't even have a calm conversation on public transport anymore... 2:51 am, someone gets stabbed in the chest... that's just crazy 
I hope he pulls through, but it's not looking good. And what really gets me is the fact that no one was taken into custody yet... like, where are we supposed to be? 
The Red Line train service is still running, which is good, but you can't help feeling a sense of unease when something like this happens. It just makes you wonder if there's going to be another incident soon 
. I feel bad for his family and friends, who are probably going through hell right now.
... it's like we're living in a real-life video game where anything can happen at any time. As much as I want to think that our society is getting better and more civilized, I just don't see it right now 
34 years old guy stabbed on the train? who does that?! 
i'm still trying to wrap my head around it, hope he recovers ASAP 
but yeah, this is getting out of hand we need to find a way to calm down and not resort to violence on public transport 
. People are gonna do whatever they wanna do on public transport and then freak out when something goes wrong 
. 
.
. We need to wait for the actual facts to come out before we start theorizing or getting our knickers in a twist 
.
. Fingers crossed no one gets charged 
just heard about the violent attack on the CTA red line train... so scary! hope the victim recovers soon 
. can't we all just get along on public transportation? 
.
️. Can't wait for the details to come out and hopefully not too many more lives will be ruined this year 
and scary for all the other passengers who were there. I hope the guy stabbing him is caught soon and gets some serious help... my heart goes out to his family 
. Just really frustrating all around...
it's just not safe anymore, no matter how many times we're told everything will be okay. A 34-year-old man nearly lost his life in an instant because of some stupid argument... it's just not worth it. I'm so tired of hearing about these violent incidents and wondering what could've been done differently to prevent them 
And the fact that no one has been arrested yet is just infuriating... justice needs to be served ASAP 
. What's the world coming to? A 34-year-old man, fighting for his life over a stupid argument 
. We need to get our priorities straight and start protecting ourselves from these crazy people 
which already means we're talking high stakes here
