NASCAR Chair Brian France ‘Working Behind the Scenes’ to Change NC Bathroom Law
Breitbart ^ | April 23, 2016 | Trent Baker

NASCAR has decided to openly oppose the North Carolina bathroom law, according to a Motorsport report. The law forbids people from using the public bathrooms of the opposite sex in government buildings.

At this week’s 2016 Associated Press Sports Editors Meeting, NASCAR Chairman Brian France said his sport is “working behind the scenes” to change the controversial law.

“Watch the fans start a boycott NASCAR movement.Let’s see how NASCAR would react to having half empty events and revenue slashed.”

I gave up on NASCAR right after Dale Earnhart died. It’s big effing circus with rules changes to make sure tnat nobody really wins. “Stock Cars?” Go out and try to find a Toyota Coupe with a front-moiunted pushrod V8 and rear wheel drive. At least Ford, GM and Chrysler actually make V-8’s for passenger cars. The “Toyota pushrod V8,” is made in Los Angeles. And Toyota managed to make this engine with a Chevrolet bellhousing mounting flange so they didn’t have to go to the troble of making a special part. All-American Sport with a Japanese car, that’s the ticket!

A couple of years ago, they closed the Superstretch stands at Daytona for the summer race. Don’t know why they did it. Oh, yeah. Could it be the 100 deg temps and always a very good chance of rain? Add to that, restrictor plate racing. That’s exciting! /S

Is there a big audience of trannies that attend NASCAR?

NASCAR isn’t losing fans and revenue fast enough to suit him?

Anyone notice the huge numbers of empty seats at recent races?

NEWS FLASH: Very few Greenies, Pinkies and other libtards are hard core, monsy spending NASCAR fans.

This continuous pandering to the left will end up destroying NASCAR.

Honestly, the crashes are the only interesting parts.

So—NASCAR thinks it perfectly acceptable for a 45-year old male (XY) in a dress to urinate while standing in front of a 6-year old female (XX).

This needs to be trumpeted from the rooftops.

In fact, every NASCAR driver needs to be forced to wear a patch to that effect.

Wonder if these idiots ever heard of the Dixie Chicks.

Never thought I’d see this. If true, NASCAR is dead to me, ending a 50+ year relationship.

WTF is wrong with our corporate leaders? They act as if they’re all being blackmailed by the gay lobby. I’m sick of these phony minority rights being pushed upon us.

I do not understand why the stands are not empty.

Give it time - it's not even May yet.

A few more of these leftist moves and NASCAR won't have money to pay the winning drivers.

France will end up with a few homosexuals, lesbians and cross dressers in the stands watching democrats driving around the track in City Car endurance demonstrations.

Two things (ok, maybe 3):

#1 The left can only survive and prosper when they have bullied everybody into tolerating whatever behavior they want to engage in — and good behavior doesn’t require any tolerance. So we’re talking about aberrant behavior to begin with. {Rush Limbaugh}

#2 The old saying “your rights end where mine begin” ... well, with the Left/LGBT bunch, THEIR “rights” are the only ones that matter, so yeah, a 45 year old supposed “tranny” in a dress can urinate in front of a 6-year old female because HE wants to & it makes him feel ‘good’ in one way or another. She has no rights & neither do any of the other females who might be exposed to this exhibitionism/perversion, whatever you want to tag it. France condoning this as standing up against “discrimination” is disgusting.

France is dead wrong on one more thing ....
B.France : “We don’t set agendas or write laws but we express our values to policy makers.” I am SICK & TIRED of people like France, Obama, Valjar, Hilly, et al making these blanket statements about “values” and defining for ME what MY values are. My values for darn sure are nothing like what these Leftist/Politically Correct idiots embrace.

Working behind the scenes to drive a stake through what’s left of NASCAR’s heart. It’s in pretty bad shape now, I couldn’t believe how empty the stands were at Bristol last week.

Help me understand the logic of the LEFT

If I belong to a fitness club like LA --Planet--or the YMCA and having male organs but if I identify as a woman I can use the Female locker room

By their logic I should be able to

The only reason they aren’t ripping out bleachers like the other tracks is because the big college football game there this fall is sold out.

When I first started watching NASCAR races they drove actual cars like those on the streets but beefed up to handle the demands of the race track.

Over the years at different times they drove cars from Chevrolet, Ford, Dodge, Plymouth, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Buick, Mercury, Hudson, AMC, Henry J, Studebaker, Chrysler, Lincoln, Nash.

Now the cars are boring - Designed by a committee, all the same bodies, distinguished only by different paint and decals.

Like Gummie Bears and M&M’s

The only similarity to the cars we buy are that they have four wheels and an engine.

You make a good point. However the safety factor has increased tremendously. I give them a lot of credit for that.
