Who was the random guy in the blue and yellow jacket who came over and started yelling at them? Was he part of the cops or just some random dude?

Sorry folks. No idea why Greg Berlin removed the vid. "No one" pretty much sums it up. Good job by MTPD.

Or more likely that he is a Democrat-that would explain the weird behavior of posting a video to draw attention to yourself and then removing it.

He's too busy making topical and clever Gaddafi quips to have kept the video up. Also spends time on his twitter account pleading for a food truck to visit "cap south" and complaining that a Subway (Jared's, not Sarles') is opening in DC "what a waste."

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, you're new-breed Washingtonian.

Obviously, there was a video from the one shot. Question is why would someone post it, brag about it and then take it down?

I smell a rat.

I wonder if his employer (the DCCC) didn't want him to have that video up there for some P.C. reason.

Ok...so where's that asshole from about a week ago that said it was the victim's fault if they were robbed on Metro? We should let him know about this so he can inform the cops that they got the wrong guy...that they should really be after the person whose phone was stolen since he was obviously begging to be robbed...

Right James, but was the vicim "waving the phone around"?

Wouldn't it be ironic if it was their phone that got stolen after their whole blame the victim nonsense and to quote them "And I hope you don't get jacked, but I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if you do".

Oh I so wish this video was still working-I hate those little punks with a passion and would love to see this video. Glad to here there is at least one wmata cop doing their job. They should give bonuses for each little gangster they apprehend.

Metro gets something right "for a change" - and no comment, not one word of introduction or reaction from the Unsuck blog writer. I guess this site never claimed to be "fair and balanced" w/r/t Metro.

here's the thing people. if you're standing next to the doors with your ________(insert electronic device here) just sitting in the palm of your hand and you fail to realize that some wannabe ganster shit bag just boarded the train because he saw you from the platform as a for sure V-001 (victim) then it really is your fault. How hard is it to just switch to the song you like and put your _______ away. There's announcements and flyers all over the place telling you all to put your _____ away so that these turds don't beat you up and take your shit. Has anyone ever heard of make it hard on the thieves? Not trying to point fingers but if you make it hard on the kids then there's a higher likelihood of you making home at the end of your day with your ipod/crackberry/ipad/ereader still in your possession.
