If you’re taking the T to make a quick grocery store run, don’t forget your ID:
You better have a good reason.. and be able to produce identification as well. [Via IP.]
I hope that they really use their behavior pattern training, because I fear that it will be just like my experiences in airports … dark skin, get stopped. I do take some comfort, though, in the fact that I’ve never suspected that I was racially profiled at Logan. Hopefully, the officers on the T will be smart about it.
(and what’s up with that infrared sensor on the SEPTA lines?)

my browser crapped out when I first wrote this (Safari doesn’t like something I’m working on at work) so I lost the original article… It was right the first time I wrote it.
It’s fixed now.

Did you notice “Officers have been training for the security checks since May 11″ — woah! 11 whole days of training at the time the Globe ran that story. I feel really safe.
