You called her full of shit, Buster took a backhanded slap at her. Quarterflash and Swainy are knocking her too. As I said, Giantone brought her into it when he said she's an artist and he took her to see the painting-I don't believe, as some are implying, he simply showed her the image on the Web-and she wasn't impressed from the point of view of an artist (to me that's irrelevant to the story actually, this is about the Redskins not budging on protecting their trademark and business but I digress).
So now it seems the thing to do is pile on her because she, through her father, gave her educated opinion on the quality of the piece. A.) As I've said, I don't think the quality of the piece matters that much quite honestly, and B.) I see this escalating to further unnecessary insults of family members of site members here and I'm saying now do not let that happen.
If Giantone wanted to bring his daughter into the conversation he has to be prepared for some pushback. But the response could have stopped at "art is subjective" You could even, if applicable, discuss your own artistic background, or that of someone close to you. Your daughter is full of shit wasn't really needed.
