Long overdue!

NASCAR no longer wants to be associated with racist assholes

How were the confederates traitors? They seceded from the union.
Do you know what "traitor" means?

They took up arms against their country

What country? They SECEDED

Where in the Constitution does it mention secession. We the People formed the UNITED States.

Lol thats your argument? That it doesnt mention it? Wowzers. You just made a case the Democrat party are traitors.
Good job, you idiot.

This is very good news.

Nascar bans the confederate flag at their events.

It's about time to get that flag of traitors to our nation out of Nascar and all places in America. Anyone who reveres a flag of traitors to America seriously needs to reconsider living here because obviously you hate our nation since you fly the flag of traitors to our nation who tried to destroy our nation.

If you're an American, you don't fly a flag of traitors to our nation.

Your days of your traitor flag being acceptable are over. We real Americans have put up with your treason for way too long. I'm proud that finally that flag is being treated as the piece of garbage it is.

The confederacy did not try to destroy our nation. It made no demand upon New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, or any northern state to do anything. The overwhelming majority of people (soldiers and civilians both) who fought for the south, did so in self-defense of their land which was under attack. Most knew nothing about slavery, and never saw a black person in their entire lives.

Slavery was bad, of course, but if the 11 southern states would have had a GOOD reason to secede, would you still call it treason ? The 13 colonies had a good reason to secede from England. You call that "treason" ?

You are comparing our revolution that formed the USA to the confederacy. Sorry, you lost and the USA won. We honor the men who died defending the USA, not the ones who were killing and maiming our soldiers.

The thing is most of them were rehabilitated after the war, and the idea was to let each side honor their dead and leaders as they saw fit. It was part of the healing process, and now a century or more later when no one from the time is around to defend it you want to unilaterally end that bargain.

Interesting perspective. Well Confederate haters ? Got any response ? What do you have to say about that ?

What part of YOUR culture, will you be OK to have people 150 years from now, put an end to ?

imo, barring radical changes, ten years from now, the Confederate haters, will be targeting American culture and heritage with the same arguments and tactics.

Why wasn't the racist American flag banned? America was built on slavery. I find that flag offensive.

Is that you with the confederate flag? Was that 1950?

Suck it racists!!!

We will see what a price NASCAR will pay for this action. NASCAR is primarily a southern sport. If enough southerners are offended by the ban of the rebel flag, it could hurt NASCAR significantly. Time will tell.

If NASCAR's profits take some hit, they may reverse and allow the Confederate flag once again. If that happens, we'll see more Confederate flags at NASCAR events than ever before.

Yall said that about the NFL and protesting too.....

I don't know what you've been reading, but the NFL suffered heavily from that.

The NBA is suffering big time from their nonsense.

So, your position is that Might makes Right? Interesting morality.


Anyhow, the Americans of the time, were not that brutal, and forgave their former enemies and welcomed them back into the fold.


They were far better Men than you .


You do not have the Moral Authority to reverse that. You might have the Power to do so.


But there will be a price.


Are you wiling to pay it?

This is huge news since it wouldn't surprise me in the least if there's regularly more Confederate flags than American flags at a NASCAR race in the South.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

The reason this is significant, is because one more institution is caving to idiotic demands of Looney Tunes psychos.

I don't give a fuck about the confederate flag. But, this is not going to stop at that symbol. If you think this is gonna be the end of the road you're really fucking stupid.

They are going after anything that represents America's founding. They're just starting with something that's an easy target.

Based on your posts, you seem more inclined to encourage people to rewrite and cancel everything that relates to the flag we have.

God Bless America

"Our" soldiers ? It was Union soldiers who CAME HERE TO THE SOUTH, who were killing and maiming OUR soldiers, in Florida, Texas, Georgia, Alabama, etc.

Yeah, I'm comparing the confederacy to our revolution. Both are examples of secession. So if southern secession was "treason" as you called it, then US secession from England would be treason to England, right ? Right ?

Another perspective: While Slavery was fought for under that flag for 4 years or so, it existed under the current flag (or at least a less star covered version) for a century or so before that.

So is the next step to somehow eliminate the american flag as well?
