?It was horrible, disgusting behaviour [by police],? said Ms. Kosoian, a 38-year-old student of international law. ?I did nothing wrong. They should go find the guys who stole my tires off the balcony.?

😕

looks like she's got a nice rack - could be the angle I suppose

I am sure this crap happens in the states all the time.
All the time? Not really. We really don't rely on limp-wristed police, or transit police, to insure the safety of escalator riders like Canada apparently does.

It's more likely any officers in the area would sooner push you down the escalator to keep traffic flow moving, than they would arrest you for not holding on.

I don't remember seeing any handrail signs in the NYC subway system. I doubt there are many actual laws on the books regarding handrail safety in our cities. Though who knows.

I want to know more about the tires on the balcony. Who keeps tires on a balcony? Is this a Canadian thing that can't possibly be understood by us lower folk?

yes. Apt dwellers tend to store stuff on their balconies during winter months.

she doesn't mention whether they were car or bicycle tires.

What I want know is why a place called Canadian Tire sells socks and canoes? 😕

So you have something other than tires to buy with your Canadian Tire money of course. 😀
