Picture yourself in that woman's position: One moment you are standing 
on the platform thinking no harm and doing nothing wrong, next moment 
you've got a broken leg and wrist; the hospital won't give you any care 
unless they know who's paying; your medical insurance isn't, due to some 
random loophole of the policy (so now you know why it was so cheap that 
you could afford it); neither is the government, because hey, this is 
America, so don't any government dare take from the rich and give to the 
poor.

Bottom line: Unless you want to spend the future walking around with a 
crippled leg and wrist, you've got to find /someone/ to blame for your 
misfortune and force them to pay.
