Re: Masked gunmen kill 1, injure 3 in Dallas store
I used to live about 10 minutes' drive from there. At the time, I didn't own any firearms because I didn't trust the apartments I'd just moved from. Oddly enough, I didn't even seriously consider the CHL until I moved back here where I'm less than a tenth as likely to ever need it.
As I recall, there were a couple of really scummy looking apartment complexes between our relatively nice complex and that neighborhood.
(Out of curiosity, I pulled it up in Google for directions: 8 minutes by car, 1hr56min by DART including 35 minutes walking to/from the routes and 33 minutes waiting for transfers, or 46 minutes walking the whole way...and people wonder why I hated DART - two hours of delays (not counting the fact that you have to schedule everything right to catch that first bus) to knock 11 minutes off of a 46 minute walk...and the return trip is only 50 minutes, still including the 35 minute walk.)
