Personally I think that's junk and the city should still be held responsible since they are still the owners of the property. They need to tell their tenants to behave and tow the line legally.

The Dallas Zoo, on the other hand, is a different issue. They managed to get themselves classified as an amusement park because of that one little train or a few little kiddie rides. That too is bogus. No one thinks of them as an amusement park unless you want to consider it amusing how many of their animals are able to escape their enclosures.
The Dallas DA said they won't prosecute trespassing. :evil2:
That's right! :cool:

I bet they would, though, for one of those scary white guys with a gun that has a cleaner record than your average police officer.
