Confronting Strangers on the Subway or the Street Can Be Dangerous

 

• A New York City subway rider was stabbed after asking another man to lower the volume of his voice.
• The man allegedly punched the victim in the face several times before stabbing him in the abdomen
• Police were called to the Jamaica Center/Parsons and Archer subway station in Queens at around 11 a.m. on Nov. 22

There are more details about this incident in:

• The New York Daily News
• The New York Post

I have read reports about people killed after fighting over parking spots.

There are too many nuts out there with knives and guns.  I am careful not to confront strangers.  I am tempted to do it when I see people riding bicycles on the sidewalk, but just don't do it.
