Can we just get rid of DART all together? They are bleeding money. Nothing but low life scum use it, hence the crime rate at bus stations and this is THE 2 SHOOTING IN 2 MONTHS THAT A COP WAS SHOT!!!!!!

BAN DART!

BAN DART!



There was a shooting in December aboard an Amtrack train involving a police officer.  The story I just read said the shooting last month was between two people bickering, but not a cop.

yes you were right, the amtrak one a cop was shot, the one last month was two people arguing and someone got shot! Regardless, Dart stations a breeding ground for criminal activity.

Keep them CONTAINED in their area.

I can't wait for them to start running DART through Mesquite, and then the rail...so excited.

The gunman was killed at the Vent-A-Hood warehouse. How appropriate and awesome is that?

I'm in Mesquite too, not looking forward to it getting even more ghetto in this town.

I'm in Denton and I was not excited at all when the DCTA/Dart train opened for business last summer. Thankfully I'm a couple of miles away from the station, but there's a reason why Corinth and Hickory Creek told them to piss off when a station was proposed there. Wish Denton had done the same. At least the station is conveniently located next to the police station.

My ex takes our kids (4 and 8) on DART often, taking it from Richardson to downtown for various fairs & events the kids would like. It's not just crackheads using DART.

That said, I don't like DART, have never used it, and worry about her (unarmed of course) taking our kids on it.

There are plenty of commuters who use it for work purposes, and i guess it helps, but have you ever been on or seen a dart bus unload after 7 o'clock? As my DPD friend says, it becomes the Crime Wave Ride!

You know what DART spokesman Mark Ball said? In a totally holy shit statement when asked what DART riders can do to protect themselves

"I don't really know what can be done, you have a right to carry in the state of Texas."


I had to re-read it to make sure he really meant what he said. Why bother having DART police when your spokesman says you are on your own and should arm yourself? I guess that is what he is saying. Surely he does not think that everyone, even crooks, have the right to carry a firearm in public, wherever they want? Either way what he said is retarded.

Said it right here in the Channel 11 story:

That made me laugh out loud also.  

I have ridden the train 2x and both times I was going to events that did not allow CCW so I was not armed.  The last time I really thought I was going to get in a fight with some thugs while holding my then 3yr old.  I never said a word to them, but they were drunk and looking for a fight.  Had my wife, 3 kids and 60yr old mom with me.  An old black lady started chewing their ass's for being idiots which finally made them get off at the next stop.  Wife and mom thought the boys would enjoy riding the train.  They know better than to even bring that idea up again.

You ought to see/smell the crowd that rides the Amtrak (anthrax) train from L.A. to Miami.

Yeah, I'm confused. Either he thinks that

-everyone should legally get a CHL to protect themselves and legally carry because DART cannot protect their ridership

OR

-everyone in the state of Texas can legally carry a firearm in public and there is nothing DART can do to stop someone from carrying a gun


That's what he said. One of the two. Not sure which. Maybe both.
