There's very little chance of that. It came in a bubble padded envelope about as big as a piece of printer paper.

The green line is a little complicated. You have two options:
1. Get off at the West End and wait 5-10 minutes for a blue, red, orange train to pick you up and take you to the Convention Center.
2. Get off at the West End and walk. It's an easy walk if you are in any kind of walking shape. Personally, I'd wait for the train, but the walk won't kill you.

Just a heads up that the West End Station is one of the busiest stops on the train. It's got an interesting assortment of people waiting for the train, loitering or just living there.

Trust me--my 4 year old and 8 year old can get anywhere on DART. (I'm actually concerned they may try to catch the bus that comes by our house and runaway one day because they have that system figured out.)

The one thing that has me concerned - not worried - is the self-proclaimed pro-gun guys that plan to show up in anti-NRA t-shirts to protest the NRA leadership at the NRA event. In my view, this does not solve any grievances and only serves to strengthen the enemy. Thoughts?

The progressive socialists do, for the most part, stand together to achieve their agenda. Everyone else dedicates much time and effort to fighting amongst their allies and friends. That’s why our side consistently suffers further infringement of our rights.

It's like republicans voting for hilary since they don't like trump... you still have to vote for the platform and the party's principles even when you don't like the candidate.

Those people should direct that energy to something positive, like supporting TSRA or the other good gun organizations. Gun guys protesting the NRA hurts us nationally... they cause so many "middle grounders" and fence sitter to vote left that it's a net loss to our common cause.
