If the assumption was that you couldn't do this stuff on the Ctrain or in the stations because CPS would be all over you in minutes it might at least make transit seem less scary to people. I've heard from a ton of people over the last year who won't ride the c train anymore.

I'm not sure if it's what their intention is, but CT is trying to hire a lot more peace officers at the moment.
The other half of that though is I think if these people just had somewhere better to go, then they'd go there. People would be more willing to not hang around the c-train if there was a better alternative, make it easier to chase them off and they'd be a lot less likely to return
