Do you have any conception how many unlawfully armed people ride the Metro in any given day? It has to be huge.

Do you have any conception how many legally armed people ride the Metro every day considering all the police, federal agents and assorted other personnel in this area?

Anybody riding the Metro with a concealed firearm and a permit will be trained, tested and thoroughly background checks. Contrary to your paranoia, their guns, like the guns of most criminals and ordinarily all law enforcement, will neither leap into independent action, nor possess their carriers and compel them to do evil.

Wait! You’re telling us an inanimate object, with no self awareness, upon which no force is acted upon, will not impose an equal opposite force?

Where was OP for any numerous stabbings, when metro ran on a regular schedule?

OP doesn’t mind criminals carrying guns illegally on metro. She’s fine with that.

She just doesn’t want YOU carrying yours legally.

Because reasons.

Pretty sure No Savage, Yung Capitul and Lil Diztrict have been carrying handguns on metro since they were 13 year old aspiring rappers

Those aren’t the people OP is frightened of. If she were, that would make her a racist.

As someone who uses public transportation, this troubles me on many levels. I wonder how many of the plaintiffs actually take the Metro.

Another reason not to ride Metro to add to the hundreds of others.

You're more likely to die of smoke inhalation or a train crash on the Metro than being shot by a legal gun owner. Back to reality people ...

They watch too much TV and think they are Dirty Harry. They have no concept of reality.

That explains all shootings on the Metro. Too many armed people there.

Oh ... never been a shooting in the Metro? (or maybe one?)

No reason to be afraid of good people carrying guns. The guns are there now and shootings are not happening.

You have to be kidding. There's shootings on the Metro all the time.

Yes, in the stations, sure … and I am sure all the perpetrators have legally acquired weapons or concealed carry permits. That’s irony, if you didn’t notice.

I dont even need to be carrying to be protected. I just need a criminal to realize that I might be, in a situation where it is legal to be, and that he could pay with his life for trying to take mine. And maybe instead he will go find a new hobby and we can live in peace, because that is what a good world is, peace and prosperity.

So that's why crime is out of control here? Not enough people carrying guns?

You’re more likely to die in a train derailment, collision or smoke/track fire on metro than you are to be shot by a citizen legally carrying a gun on a train.

Sorry to insert reality into your fever dreams of Wild West shootouts on the escalators when people don’t stand to the right.

I don't think that is true at all. Most people are commuters and kids going to school.

Therefore allow guns? Some kind of logic fail going on there!

No, therefore post about something more relevant.
