Look at the scale of this problem. People gather to watch the fight. People video tape the fight, post it to You Tube and people flock to it.

I can't help but think that publicity is why people do this sort of thing.

We don't know what the third person did to provoke the officers. That's the problem with most videos - there's always a part missing so we can imply all we want, but we weren't there, so we'll never know.

Abuse a homeless man, get a desk job. Maybe that's what they wanted to begin with?

No - opening the doors is the one thing the drivers still have to do, even under automatic train control. There was an incident - way back on Oct 8, 1979 - where a Red Line operator stepped outside of his train at the Brentwood Yard and the train took off without him. The train ran as it should have, stopping at all stations between Brentwood and Metro Center without the doors opening. A passenger picked the lock on the control compartment and pressed the door open button. Otherwise, the train would have pulled into the pocket track at Dupont Circle, waiting for the absent driver to change ends.

From Donald Deiter's Book - "The Story of Metro" - written back in the good old days of Metro.
