Train Smash Catastrophe!

OMG this cannot be true!

Aintree set to BAN photographers from taking pictures of badly-dressed women at Grand National meeting

But… but… but where are we going to get pics of Train Smash Women, when their best source will be denied us?

Saith the sniffy killjoy boss of the event:

John Baker, managing director of the racecourse, hoped the ban would put an end to what he claimed was unfair coverage of customers getting drunk or flashing too much flesh at the event.
He said: ‘We want to overwhelm the negativity, to push the positivity to the front.

Here’s some frontal positivity for you:

And:

‘Our event is full of character, it’s fun, and that’s generated by the personality of the Liverpool people.’

Ah, yes… that Scouser personality:

 

More:

He warned that any photographer taking unflattering pictures would lose their accreditation.
‘We have to absolutely protect that because it’s at the core of what we are, and we have a responsibility to our customers to project the correct image.
‘We have talked about trying to monitor those photographers, so if we see any element clearly looking for a negative shot and we can identify that, we will take their accreditation off them and we’ll kick them off the site.
‘That’s not easily manageable, but that’s what we’ll endeavour to do.’

Twerp.

My feelings exactly.

Train Smash Down Under

It’s very tempting for me to disqualify all Australian women from Train Smashdom because, well, because Australian.

However, then we’d not be able to feast our eyes on displays such as this year’s Australia Day celebrations:

Of course, this being the modern era, people found something to complain about the event, and they looked pretty much as you’d expect them to look:

…but who cares?  Not these folks:

Which just goes to show that not all women Down Under are Train Smash Women.

Happy Australia Day, Over There!!!

Fitting Punishment

Here’s an interesting one:

A psychology student has been arrested for a hate crime after allegedly hurling anti-Semitic slurs at three Jewish children before spitting on one in Brooklyn last week.
Christina Darling, 21, was arrested on Friday and has been charged with aggravated harassment as a hate crime, endangering the welfare of a child and menacing [behavior].
In the video, the St Francis College student can be seen stomping up to an eight-year-old boy playing with two of his younger siblings – aged seven and two – and launched into an anti-Semitic tirade before spitting on him.
‘Hitler should have killed you all. I’ll kill you and know where you live,’ she yelled.

See, I don’t buy the “hate crime” thing at all, but spitting at someone is classed as assault, and a minor felony, ergo  this unpleasant little virago deserves some kind of punishment…

…which, under the reign of World-Emperor Kim would be that she be exiled for one year to live in Israel — Jerusalem, preferably.

The NYGovt could pick up the tab, which would be less than keeping her incarcerated.
