Seems like a wasted effort to me but I suppose a big corporation like WB cannot afford bad press.

It is indeed a shame the GL gets hit from all this nonsense. --A good example of fallout from kneejerk reactions to a completely unrelated incident.

I can see vandalism coming to chargers that have the "F--g"  on the roof.  And since the total car image has become so iconic even the "color" might be an issue with some because it's part of a package.

My mind does wander a bit sometimes but ----It is true and we all know it--- To some the color of the car does matter. If your car goes out of favor because of current social preference the color/heritage can be changed to fit the latest flavor. Also if need be a new vin tag can be made to cover all the basis.  However if one wants to change their car into a chevy?? That may be over the top. It would be across species and may take a little more time to become the new style. As for getting married to ones car?-- I think we are just better off if we stay in the closet on that one.

Sorry for rambling on with stupid/ inane and otherwise irrelevant wanderings. The general public deserves better.

Let's just all buy Toyota's and be "Real Americans"
Patriotism is dead in this Country.

Of course the film industry is going to bow down to this crap, they let N Korea take away their rights as Americans so why should this be different.

----WB is not killing the general.-----

Just moments ago On local radio I heard the good ol boys jingle from the dukes of hazard. It was a lead into a brief news bit about the confederate flag.---

WB is not killing the general. The rush of news casters to fill time with current stories will do it just fine. What better way to get into the mind and the attention of a current listener?  

It's to tell them what the flack is all about--you know--that old car that jumps and is orange.---Yes that' it-- that's the flag we are talking about.

I'm going to make Warner Bros a cheap offer on the rights to all Dukes merchandise and films.. It's dead to them anyways
