People are losing their chit over on Nascar's Facebook page right now, I'm wondering if they really are going to lose a lot of fans or are they just venting at the moment?

Man, people are really pissed they can't bring a confederate flag to a race anymore.

I honestly don’t see that many rebel flags anymore at the race tracks. There are some but not so many that it’s going to be a problem. I could care less about the rebel  flag but I don’t think it’s right to tell somebody they can’t fly their flag. I’m sure some people don’t like the black lives matter flag or the American flag. Just like Buddha, Muhammad, black lives matter, Republican and Democrat party we will have another fake god to discuss 😝.  I had to do it roam lol.

And when I say black lives matter as a fake god I’m talking about the cult not my brothers and sisters that are oppressed.

I do thinks it's perfectly fine for an organization to determine what is and is not appropriate for their own races, events, etc.

That said, I never understood the whole confederate flag thing anyway... just seems ignorant for many reasons:

1. It's not actually the confederate flag, but the battle flag of Northern Virginia.
2. They call it the stars and bars, but again it's not. The original confederate flag was the stars and bars (looked similar to the American flag).
3. It's a flag that was flown fighting AGAINST the United States. Why would you think, as an American, that's something to fly proudly?
4. It wasn't even a popular symbol until the Dixiecrats started flying it again after WWII in response to the civil rights movement. So apparently it wasn't a heritage thing until civil rights came up?
5. "States rights" - Oh please, these people crack me up. In many of the declarations from the confederate states they specifically mention slavery and the slave act as primary reasons for secession. I mean my lord, Mississippi wrote: "Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery". I mean, the state of Mississippi is telling you, LITERALLY, that they are doing it because of slavery, yet people there still try and say it wasn't about slavery. SMH

@roaminglion

what can NASCAR do if somebody has it flying on their car or at their campground? It’s a great looking flag for sure but IMO since the kkk carried it around I don’t want anything to do with it. As for slavery heck every race of people was in slavery at one time because nothing but tyrants and dictators ruled everything before the good ole USA come along. Thanks for all that info roam I didn’t know some of it.

👍 I just try and keep my eyes on the prize baby because it keeps me in a good mood lol. Matter of fact I’m fixing to head down to Panama City for 8 night and I can’t wait to get me some good ole seafood. We we going to go to Cancun when we got back from Panama  but the virus killed that trip. I’m sure my wife will keep me busy around here though. Is my wife the only female that wants a house painted 6 times a year? Lol she’s killing me

The Bristol fans give bubba a hard time this past weekend which is BS because these fools booing him couldn’t have cared less about that stupid rebel flag until somebody told ‘em they can’t fly it anymore lol. Bubba Wallace is all about the USA I’ve seen it with my own eyes and don’t ask me to prove it you’ll just have to trust me on this one lol
