It means there are Yidden, my friends and neighbors, who use that station all day. My husband and son use this station to get the train to work. Crown Heights has had 2 deaths by train in the last few years, one was my neighbor. So yes, it was distressing, and it doesn't take away from the tragedy of such a horrific death for anyone. But I'm glad (selfishly) that the poor victim isn't a Yid. Get it??

It means it was to close to home for comfort. Why does everyone here assume the worst of others?
