If there are delays and it's moving slowly, does the acronym change?

Some of y'all would be up in arms if the perp had been a Muslim terrorist.

But since it's MARTA we know where this is going and don't gaf.

You aren't wrong. And truth be told you are FAR more likely to be harmed by some thugPOS than a terrorist.

I blame conservatives and the continued support of public transit.

I take public transit to and from work every day. It's by far easier and faster than dealing with traffic and parking. When done properly, public transportation is a very good thing.

I lived in Atlanta several years and took MARTA often. I never ventured west of Vine City.

Does Marta have gates and turnstiles?

In Chicago they do and everyone on the train belongs on there and sits and waits for their stops.

In St.Louis, Metro is used as a get away car,hassle white people, rob, and beat them up. NO gates, no turnstiles, and you don't even need a ticket to ride. Zero police on trains, and Metro security are knob jobbers.

It's a joke.


PS I was told that turnstiles and gates are racist by an Alderman. lol

It's literally just black people riding it all day with nothing to do. Oh the metro cops are going to give them a fine if they can't present their ticket?

Yeah that'll be paid in.... never.

The 85 overpass collapse has more people now using MARTA than they are capable of handling.

I've been on MARTA a good bit over the years... usually Holmes to GWCC then Vine City to Holmes ... and never had a problem... I took Metro in DC and was puckered until we got near the government buildings... went from midnight to midday in one stop
