Exactly what I was thinking. :)

@Villain Pony  
I think you missed the point.
 
“aren’t blood born or breed”
 
“have little money or entitlement to fall back on”
 
“I don’t mean doing pre-arranged heroic acts”
 
Twilight is heroic, there’s no debating that, but true heroes and leaders would never apologize for saving people in a different way then asked by someone else. Rainbow Dash and Trixie think for themselves.

@PonyPon  
In Twilight’s case, it’s all three!

@CronoM  
I guess magic and destiny don’t make heroes.
 
People do.

So let me get this straight…
 
>Only some packs of Diamond Dogs are so vicious that they are kidnapping thieves and raiders.  
>While only some packs of Diamonds dogs became thieves and raiders, they are still a rough species like some versions of trolls, goblins and ogres.
 
>One of the first things Trixie does when she is made queen is order ALL violant acts or dotted-line press gangs to be forbidden. She would not hear of it.
 
…
 
>The buffalo’s steal AJ’s tree and make a fool of Rainbow Dash, deciding to track them down  
>She initially hates the buffalo’s, but when she hears the story, she tries to find a peaceful solution in the name of the buffalo’s.
 
>Despite the fact ponies are disresptected in general by them, stubborn Chief Thunderhoof is so influenced by RD he looks at her pleading and conflicted saying “What would you have me do, Rainbow Dash?”
 
 
There is a supreme irony in here somewhere. How is it that Rainbow Dash and Trixie…
 
…two unentitled, stubborn, morally grey but evolving characters…
 
…have a better track record for spreading order and kindness on a national scale then any of the Princesses besides maybe Celestia over the years?
 
And I don’t mean simply maintaining peace or doing pre-arranged heroic acts, I mean seeing a large group or society and setting out to make things better. Trixie has a long way to go compared to Rainbow Dash, but the potential is already there. 0.0
 
Y’know, its almost as if the true leaders of tomorrow aren’t blood born or breed, its the people who have made a lot of mistakes, have little money or entitlement to fall back on, yet constantly improve themselves to rise to the occasion.

@Villain Pony
 
They don’t need to meet an ass to do that. They thought Zecora was a child eating witch based on pretty much nothing.

It’s pretty telling about how the ponies think that an entire species is totally evil if they met someone who was an ass.

Monotone isn’t how humans talk, you /robot/.

Ah sell bones and bones accessories

@Mr. Horrible  
And yet prose writers manage to do without nearly all of it, even lacking the benefit of showing facial expressions.
 
Also, half the time the “flow of the sentence” formed by the random emphasis makes no sense.

@RIG  
Reminds me of the time everyone seemed to think that all Griffons are jerks and were/are at war with the ponies just because of Gilda.

… Oh god.
 
Diamond Dog queen.
 
Queen Bitch.
 
THE BOWIE CONTINUES.

@Background Pony #5667  
It’s to show emphasis. You can’t really convey tone of voice very well in comics, so the bolded words serve to help the reader form the flow of the sentence as they read it.

What is it with the comics and bolding words at random? It’s distracting…

@OverlordScorpion  
he seems to emphasize that most of them ARE like that. they have jsut been domesticated.

@Niggoslav_Krawczyk  
I’m talking about “the asshole of the species you saw were outcasts” thing.

@Itsthinking LEEEAVE THE DRAGONS A LOOOOONE WHAT DID THEY EVER DO TO YOU! ;_;  

“Not all of us. Just most of us.”

@OverlordScorpion  
now they are more like world of Warcraft Orcs

Eh. I would’ve preferred Diamond Dogs were like LOTR goblins.

Now just to do this with dragons.

hahahahaha!  
“all the diamong dogs are savages” fans getting BTFO!

Yeah.
