When I worked for Amtrak, one of their officers stopped me at the maintenance facility where I worked and lectured and threatened me because my company issued ID badge was a year and a half out of date. I told him that's the company's fault, etc, he didn't care. I asked him why they have 120 security cameras around the facility when, despite being in the worst part of West Oakland there is virtually no crime at the facility. He replied, "one time we used the cameras to convict a homeless man for breaking into a reefer and stealing frozen chicken at the adjacent UP yard." True story word for word. Amtrak has a bloated Police budget. Hell they even have a mobile tactical command center. Yet somehow, they are powerless to stop on board crew members from being assaulted, employees from being assaulted by employees and personal theft on trains and in facilities.

Meanwhile, BART police write traffic tickets and perform ethnic cleansing as if it were the day before the rapture.
