    Rats scamper out from under NYC homeless man's blanket: video (nypost.com)

    A pack of rats was seen bunking with a homeless man at a New York City subway station before scurrying off as people approached, horrifying footage shows.

    The man filming walks up to the sleeping form and says, “Yo.” Movement can be seen under the blanket as the man repeats, “Yo” a little louder, which finally stirs the homeless man.

    That's pretty gross. I know this is a problem with larger cities, seems like they should be able to control them better than this

    What’s wrong with a homeless person having pets to keep him warm?

    New York certainly doesn’t care that it’s subway system is third world or worse.

    Not that, at least from you. You're usually better than this.

    I was talking about the rodent problem in general with large cities, their rodent programs just aren't working

    This forum should have an official “New York/SanFrancisco/Chicago/Minneapolis/Portland etc” thread where righties can obsessively post about every incident that happens in those cities
