Loesch's response is incredible and absolutely spot on. It's a parody of the fact that they introduced "black" trains when all of the characters were gray and blue trains, not people, insinuating that only utterly insane people would infer race in the first place. Priceless. And this thread sucks, not enough hot pics of Dana |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
The media is itching to call all NRA members racist Nazi radicals and then she pushes something that inflammatory? The point she is making is that they are adding "diversity" to a show about cartoon locomotives - they aren't even PEOPLE, much less have a race. If they HAVE to add diversity - what were they BEFORE? Klan members? That is the point she is trying to make. |

It might play fine in the brains-addled-by-4chan world of GD, but she should be trying to appeal to a wider audience and not just preaching to the choir. She seems to be an awful lot about the clicks instead of the spreading the message further though.

Thomas has always male and female engines, as well as engines of different "ethnicities" (Hiro the Japanese engine, for example). Who gives a shit if they add one from Africa? Sir Topham Hatt will still be a condescending patronizing prick to her just like he is to all the others.

Here is a link to program. You have to jump to the 57 minute mark. She was trying to point out that trains have no genders or ethnicity and then when off on a tangent trying to figure out what it was about a gray train that triggered the producers so bad that felt the need to star assigning gender and race to trains. She was mocking them and said it must have been the white hoods and burning train tracks that made Thomas a white male train that needed to be balanced by a black female African train. The whole conversation/topic was stupid, she should have just skipped the whole thing. https://www.nratv.com/episodes/relentless-season-1-episode-107 After the Philandro Castile shooting, she went on a very broad anti cop rant and rave on twitter. I asked her only what her qualifications were to make her a expert that arrived at her conclusion. She, of course, ignored it. Then when Colin Noir took over the criticism of the shooting and Dana all of sudden was born again pro cop. She blocked me when I asked what happened to change her mind, that I was curious. Someone else responded, some mouth breather white knighting her, and I said I have taken an oath since 1991 to protect and defend and I have been a NRA member since 1999 and I wanted to know what made her the expert in police shootings.. She then blocked me. She had been reminded a few times from others about the Castile shooting and how she dealt with it on twitter, she never responded and a few DM back and forth with screen shots show she blocked them all too. She isn't on our side, she is on her side. She wants an echo chamber of her scripted thoughts. She is like the left in many ways... Oh, buy Goldline, I mean Superbeets. |

Y’all are looking at this from the wrong angle. Yes, it’s obvious this was going to get the left’s panties in a wad. Yes, it was obvious that it was going to cause controversy. Guess what? Causing controversy is what got Trump elected. I hope this marks the beginning of a much more aggressive stance by Dana and the NRA as a whole.
I don’t have high hopes, but if they refuse to apologize and instead come back with basically “You dumbasses, we were making fun of you. If you can’t understand that it just shows how out of touch with reality you really are”, then it’ll be game on. I’ll have a Coke. |

No one has ever been offended by that till they introduced an African train and all the sudden that lady from the NRA lost her shit and brought up the KKK. Do you see why this comes across as bizarre and poorly thought out? You can't use the 'we were making fun of you' excuse if there was absolutely no humor or wit involved and, besides, I'll ask again what the fuck this has to do with the NRA?

She's thinking she's a Republican party spokeswoman, not the NRA's...and she'd be right. The NRA going increasingly off message should surprise no one at this point.

Propaganda trap.
The segment was showing how ridiculous to assume gray-faced trains emulated only white people, and their response to add a train that looks like it came straight out of Coming to America. |

Stupid shit that affirms widespread suspicions that NRA = racist. Absolutely fucking retarded PR move by both Loesch and the NRA.
The notion of Thomas the Train going on some around-the-world trip and meeting trains with different paint jobs and accents is great. It's not like the show hasn't been on forever and this would make writing new episodes pretty easy while maintaining interest from both child and parent viewers. Loesch and her producers at NRA TV are all fucked up here. I can hardly imagine a worse PR move. |

She's from the more redneck part of the St. Louis, MO area. if you think she's hot well there are TONS of her here, you just gotta grab one out of the trailer park and doll it up some and bam you'll have your own. Lotta italian genes like her's in STL.
EDIT; I'm not talking shit about her as I'm a fan. I'm more so doing the proper St. Louis snobbery and talking shit about the part of town where's from and the high school she went to (Fox, pffffttt), it's what we do here. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: A more aggressive stance on what, exactly? Children's television programming? What the flying fuck does that have to do with the National Rifle Association? Conflating gun rights with this bullshit left/right culture war narrative may rile up support for the NRA from the far right, but it hurts gun rights in the long run by alienating everyone else.

Y'all are totally missing the point, stop bleating on about political rhetoric - it was a catastrophically idiotic move to put the imagery up for the simple reason that:
It's the internet. When you put something out there it's available to be used or mis-used in the worst possible ways, your original context, intent and motives are meaningless. |
