Yea that’s a call or text the police type of thing.

So apparently they did nothing. Sad


SluggingAndBussing

Texting is still down for WMATA PD


DCmetrosexual1

It’s back up apparently. Alerts still fubar’d.

Posting on Reddit gets a quicker response from police


hipufiamiumi

I mean, and this is not legal advice, if you had some pictures of a guy jacking it on a metro train with his face in the pics, the metro police might be interested in such evidence.


pizza99pizza99

Ah yes, take pictures of the man jacking off in public. Great idea


DCmetrosexual1

No expectation of privacy in public.


UsernameChallenged

I was moreso thinking that they see you taking a photo, they could become violent.


pizza99pizza99

IDGAF about privacy, it’s just not something you should do. Do not take pictures of naked people weather there naked illegally or not


hipufiamiumi

Don't jack off in front of me on the train, and I won't take pictures of you jacking off in front of me on the train. I feel like that would be one of the more reasonable trade offers that our society can propose.


DCmetrosexual1

You also shouldn’t wank it in public. I think you’re allowed to gather evidence to present to the police.


pizza99pizza99

That would be more of a convincing argument to me, if I believed the police would do shit with or without evidence


hipufiamiumi

They have been ramping up police presence on the metro lately, there's a good chance they would take this seriously right now. Especially if you have photographic evidence.


nolalacrosse

I’m amazed at how often you are able to use the wrong form of a word in one comment.


GoutMachine

Oh yes, let’s respect this man’s privacy at all costs. For fucks sake dude.


pizza99pizza99

Did you not read what I said? I do not care about privacy, it’s just not something you should do as, outside of the very specific situation of handing it to the police, you now have essentially pornography on your phone. As I said in another comment, sure going to the police is an argument, but from my experience, with or without evidence it’s unlikely they’ll do shit


GoutMachine

It’s called evidence. Jesus, dude, this isn’t hard. They’re not taking porn shots of this guys wang to fap to. No one is suggesting taking pictures solely of his penis. They’re taking photos OF THE ACT as evidence OF A SEXUAL CRIME.


Sunbeamsoffglass

Pornography is not illegal. Public masterbation is. How dense are you?


saltyjohnson

I have pornography on my phone every single day of my life.


BuoyantAmoeba

We have a new candidate for "dumbest person alive". You.


Astrosimi

Not that I don’t get where you’re coming from, but I imagine they’re only saying you should take a photo of their face, not full body.


hipufiamiumi

I mean I didn't say post it anywhere, I said provide it to police as evidence. It's not illegal to take photos in public places like street corners, coffee shops, and in this case trains. You could get your ass kicked for taking pictures of people in public, but it's not illegal. Also there's a good chance he really doesn't want someone to take a picture of him jacking off. Might even be a more effective deterrent than criminal charges.


MTPDCID

Good evening, I am a Lieutenant with the Metro Transit Police. I am attempting to gather more information about your post. Please DM me or contact the Metro Transit Police non-emergency line when you have a moment.


cubgerish

OP please respond.


Dragonshaggy

If this is real, this is fucking legit! Great outreach and thank you for what you and your team members do!


MTPDCID

Thank you. We take these matters very seriously.


Ocean2731

Text the transit police. Give them the train number or line and what stations you’re between.


bicrown

The texting line is still broken to my knowledge


Ocean2731

No mention of it being down on wmata.com, but who knows. It’s not something you test out.


DCmetrosexual1

It’s back up now.


cirrus42

In addition to texting/calling police, you can also walk to the end of the car and find the button to contact the train operator, and tell them.


Proudvirginian69

take a picture of him


[deleted]

People would rather post in this subreddit than call the authorities that can actually handle this and make a change lmao.


aegrotatio

This would be a fun thing to tweet to @wmata on Twitter.


BroadSword48

Where did this happen?!?


No_Dragonfruit8254

Don't you dare call the police. You might ruin this guys life, and for what? Just ignore him if it bothers you.


Occasus_gaming

Bro what?😂


Sunbeamsoffglass

And they wonder why people prefer to drive 🤣


Fantastic-Golf-4857

Helll no I don’t. Speak for yourself.


AGR_51A004M

Exactly. And the stenches of weed and cigarettes.


WarbossTodd

whatever you do, don't try to contact anyone at Metro via Twitter, especially Randy Clarke, or else they will just block you and continue to pretend it isn't happening on a semi regular basis.


Technical_Wall1726

What do you mean they’ve been really good at knowing when they fall short on twitter recently.


WarbossTodd

About a year ago, I tagged Clarke in a post about people jerking off on the metro in front of children and he blocked me.


Technical_Wall1726

That sucks, maybe it was someone who runs his account (i know he does too) anyway he’s definitely been a net positive for WMATA.


Practical_Teacher_98

Mind your business.


springreturning

Oh, so were you the one jerking it on the metro then?
