TOO MUCH TV

Is Richard G. Everit ("Keep dogs off BART") serious? I think he's watching 
too much television when he imagines an inevitable shootout on BART because 
someone sees a dog.

"At best he will see the dog and shoot the officer"? I guess we know how he 
feels about law enforcement officers. Also, I didn't realize that many 
fugitives with bombs, guns and baby-snatching tendencies rode public 
transportation.

I, too, am concerned with the almost complete lack of courtesy on our 
highways, but it never occurred to me that dogs on trains would put more 
bad drivers on our freeways.

I'm happy that he would allow BART police to stop drug peddlers from 
causing a disturbance.

I guess well-mannered drug dealers should be left alone.
