Posted by JAzumah on Tue Oct 25 15:06:36 2011, in response to Re: ARTICLE: B110 Riders Must Demand Changes for Themselves, posted by BrooklynBus on Tue Oct 25 14:24:11 2011. I think that both of you are in agreement regarding the proper protocol on the B110. The only difference is that one believes that a reporter should not be the impetus for changing the behavior on the bus. I understand his point, but I do not agree. There are people in this article that think that the segregation is legal because it has been allowed to go on for so long. Herein lies the fruit of the neglect of the NYC bus franchise system.Having said that, the article does make a few important points. The most notable comes from the fact that an out ward attack on a community will make it defensive. That is, Orthodox women will defend the system because they are part of it and to attack it is to attack them. Indoctrination goes on everywhere. The idea that God doesn't exist is a type of indoctrination too. This is why I am not a big fan of discussing why the Orthodox Jews do what they do. It is irrelevant to the situation at hand. The deal here is that what is taking place on the B110 is illegal because the drivers are engaged in its enforcement. A simple reminder to the drivers not to get involved protects the franchise. On the schedule, the instructions in Yiddish should reflect a voluntary choice to segregate. If I were in Private Transportation's shoes, I would issue no public comment about the situation at all. |
