Today, after leaving a bar I fell asleep on the Q train heading home. I awoke at 5am in Coney Island, end of the line, to a cop poking me with his baton. He gave me a ticket for "Subway Vagrancy" even though I have a job and an apartment. He didn't ticket the homeless man next to me covered in piss. FML

Wait, homeless people, who are obviously really damn poor get ticketed for stuff like this? Disgusting.

Really, FML for this? You fell asleed on the subway and they ticket the ppl who could actually pay the fines. Duh!! Next time just be glad you didn't get mugged and spare the rest us your heartless bulls**t

Probably because he knew the hobo couldn't pay the ticket, and you could.

and did you tell the asshole what actually happened and that the ticket should go to the homeless person? i mean really WTF? who gives a shit if they think a homeless person can't pay for it? technically they can...they hustle money all day long...they make at least $50 a day and spend it on friggin drugs and alcohol. so yes they CAN pay it off.

honestly, why on earth would he ticket the homeless guy? he's got no money to pay it...waste of paper.

Wow that sucks. The cop should've given you a warning.

the cop was probably trying to fill a quota

wait, you can't put your feet up on the subway, you can't eat or drink on the subway, and you can't take it home when you're drunk? I don't live where there is a subway (aka the south) and I'm unfamiliar with these rules. why are they like this?
