Nearly everything on TV is produced to promote an agenda. Part of that agenda is to earn money by putting eyeballs in front of TV sets. One quick, easy way of accomplishing that is exploiting stereotypes and prejudices, because many people feel comfortable having their prejudices reinforced.

Often the agenda includes promoting political or social points of view that are not openly stated. Even shows that pretend to be objective and "balanced" generally are not. That's why I quit watching shows like "Sixty Minutes" years ago.

I don't know what this "Lock n Load" series is trying to do. I probably will never see it.

If this show promotes firearms safety, the fun and challenge of the shooting sports, the role of hunting in wildlife conservation, the importance of self defense, and the role of the right to keep and bear arms in American history, I owe you lunch.

Jim,

From what I saw of this show I can safely say you can keep your wallet in your pants, you wont be buying any time in the near future. In fact it looks like it is slanted to portray the people in there as gun toting lunatics. Not my kind of show

Re: New showtime series: Lock n Load

Did anyone else take time to watch the show, I watched the first show only because I happened to be watching TV at the time it came on. I have to say I was not all that impressed with it. It looks to me to be staged, if it is not then the gun dealer guy seems to be trying way too hard. What did those of you who watched it think?
