CARRYING ON A DART VEHICLE
Customers can still carry a handgun when riding DART. However, if someone is carrying openly, bus or rail operators may stop the vehicle and call for DART Police. The law allows a police officer to request the license holder's driver's license or government-issued identification along with the holder's handgun license.

Customers carrying concealed handguns should experience no changes unless the handgun becomes visible. If that happens the police may be called to investigate.
I feel like that should be against the law... They either need to post 30.07 signs on their buses/mention it on their website or not make a fuss about it at all instead of being like "if someone feels uncomfortable we'll call the cops on you for exercising your 2nd amendment right as a law abiding US citizen." Wouldn't logic dictate that if you get on a bus and dont go psycho on everyone, that theres a GOOD chance you're a law abiding citizen... Plus speaking of logic, if a bad guy planned on doing something bad i dont think he'd be open carrying to begin with. he'd wanna keep it concealed so nobody knew he had it...its policies like these that make no since to me. they defy logic. all for a "false sense of security" for people who are scared of guns.
It is illegal. You can't call the police just because you think they fit a profile. Should I call the police when I see a high school aged kid on a DART bus? After all, recent shootings have been done by high school aged folks. Maybe those two teenage boys are getting ready to go on a rampage. Same thing for members of ethnic groups that have a higher chance of committing crimes.

If DART is not publicly owned, then they should post 30.07 signs or just give verbal notice to anyone OC'ing.

As said go or don't so very simple for all it would seem or do not go where Pres and VP are, what's hard there. Ever been to a 06 gunshow?
Let me answer the 2nd of your questions. I have never been to a gun show that had an enforceable 30.06 sign posted. All of the gun shows I have attended have been on public property where it is impossible to post an enforceable 30.06 sign.
The intent was posted same as a business doing so message given, I just do push things a lifetime of seeing what can happen now is just not worth it to ME. Same as a PT jot I later had with an illegal sign posted message given either keep job or leave very simple to me.
I'm not sure what you mean by intent. A business that intends to prevent people from carrying firearms onto their property posts a valid and enforceable 30.06 sign. If they post anything else, they do not intend to prevent people from carrying firearms onto their property. I'm assuming the business owner is actually literate and has a minimal level of intelligence, of course.

If you are implying that the people running a gun show would like to do things they can't legally do, then I suppose that is true. They might also want to ban minorities, homosexuals, and who knows what else. But they probably aren't completely anti-gun since they are choosing to run a gun show after all. I also would not assume that the owners of a bar were anti-alcohol for the same reason. Still, if a gun shows organizers were to make their anti-gun stance clear, then I would not patronize them. This actually happened with a range owner in Katy who came out against online ammo sales. He is now out of business.

Plain and simple, this isn't the NRA's decision. It's not the VPOTUS' decision. It's not the POTUS' decision. It is solely the Secret Service's decision. I'm not sure what is so hard to understand about that.
Are you implying the NRA could not have said "no thanks" to the President / VP?

We can debate whether the NRA made the right decision, but saying that they had no say in the matter is just disingenuous. Personally, I'm not hyperventilating, but I also will not be attending. There are very few things that I would willingly disarm for. And seeing the President / VP speak is not important enough to make that short list. Others are free to make a different decision on this.

I guess I will not be making the trip to Dallas after all.
