They ought to try requiring all fans to kneel during the race—see how that goes. ;-)

I guess they don’t remember where their Roots came from. I hope all the fans quit going. When they open up that is.

The folks running NASCAR should grow a pair and not try to pander.

It bet it does very little for sales, outside of some possible minor boycotting at the beginning. The right in general has no spine for long-term sacrifice to make a point.

I have never had any interest in owning a Confederate flag, but now I'm thinking of getting one just to say "F*** em!"

Let us see how the fans of NASCAR react to this. I suspect NASCAR just f***ed itself.

BLM wants NASCAR to do away with the black/white checkered flag go strictly with a black flag for the winner (who must also be black)

The Chinese wants NASCAR to do away with the yellow flag at races because it is racist against Asians...

Native Americans wants NASCAR to do away with the red flag also because they feel it’s racist...

The only flag they really approve of flying is the white flag (symbol of surrender)

The French might be extra rude if the white flag is used.

agree with you on this. Better do it quick, they may outlaw possession in the near future.
