No Weapons or firearms allowed on RTD?

[gnihcraes]

Ok, I checked at work, and this is the answer I received:

It is allowed publicly, unless posted.

My return answer was, it's posted on the bus, no weapons and received this answer back:But frankly, think about it – if you don’t have to use it, no problem. If you DO have to use it, they would likely be grateful that you did. I’m just saying.
So, take that how you may.

I'll present the legal garbage to this same person and see what comes of it and let you know.

Out of sight, out of mind.

I'm confused... I was under the impression that carrying a weapon was mandatory on RTD, and if you did not have one, they would issue one for the duration of your ride...

"Please be careful of the step down, place any loaner weapons in the bin, and have a nice day...."

Update: Based on the legal:

18-9-118. Firearms, explosives, or incendiary devices in facilities of public transportation.

A person commits a class 6 felony if, without legal authority, he has any loaded firearm or explosive or incendiary device, as defined in section 9-7-103, C.R.S., in his possession in, or carries, brings, or causes to be carried or brought any of such items into, any facility of public transportation, as defined in section 18-9-115 (4).
It is allowed with permit.

(i'm no lawyer though)

Has anyone or does anyone know anyone with a CCW who has been cited for carrying on RTD?

Past performance is not always an indicator of the future, however, if it hasn't happened before, it isn't likely that it is on RTD's radar.

Anyone have any regular contact with RTD security? I have spoken with them occasionally. Next time I talk with them I will ask the question. No idea when that will happen.
