My father, mother, brother, girlfriend along with some of my co-workers and professional colleagues all have used Greyhound. None of them, nor I, fit in any of the categories you listed.
As for myself, I've been a Greyhound patron nearly all of my life, including one trip made as recently as last year. During my college years, I made two cross-country bus trips on Greyhound.
Yes, I prefer traveling by train, but many times that was not possible, either financially (during my younger years) or logistically.
There are low-lifes on all modes of travel, including and especially in automobiles and
airplanes. Nearly all Greyhound patrons who either rode on buses with me or waited in stations in which I waited were just trying to get from one place to another. They never bothered anyone else.
However, thank you for the punch in the face. It's always fun to be insulted and stereotyped by classist and thoughtless idiots like you.
This newspaper article, and many others, offer credibility to what I'm suggesting. How would you like to drop your mother, wife or daughter off at a bus station and, on her trip, she's surrounded by homeless and mentally ill people who are hallucinating and probably haven't bathed for days?
