can't believe they actually sent someone to Motordrome to look for Confederate flags tonight..wow

I saw one story earlier today on top of the their page basically saying that NASCAR is caving into the politically correct witch hunt linking racism with the rebel flag,that made me mad being as the sports nerds in this city won't recognize any sport unless it involves a stick and ball..
we all know our area tracks outside of one local column (thanks DJ!)don't get any media reporting on our sport unless someone dies.
but I think its absurd that they would go out of their way to try to denigrate our local racing tracks and fans..they found one truck in the lot with a flag plate and had to post a pic like "Look we found a racist!" no,its a RACE FAN Dumba$$!
sorry for the rant.but this is getting out of hand!

It's easy to see what this contemptible left wing rag was looking for, and I'm glad they found great fans proudly displaying the American flag. Maybe the same libtard reporter should go interview blacks to see why they fail to attend ball games at PNC Park.

Did you see where TVland quit airing the Dukes of Hazzard because of the flag on top of the General Lee? Ridiculous. The Dukes are as American as baseball & apple pie

As I was driving down us250 yesterday, coming the other way was a black Chevy Redneck special with a huge flapping Rebel flag sticking up from the bed. I honked and gave the guy a thumbs up. Until yesterday I cared less. But if the Black Panthers can wave their flag, and if the Gays can wave their flag, and the Illegals can wave their flag, then by God a Redneck can wave his flag too! And as soon as I can find a place where I can buy a Rebel flag, I'll have one on all 4 of my trucks!

[The Legend]

Retort that's my opinion also. The rebel flag has no real meaning to me but if someone wants to fly it they should be allowed to do so. Allowing the fag flag and Isis flag and America flag with obamas face is allowed so it should be anything goes . Full bubba Watson I'm sick of pussies caving to political pressure. I hope the next girl he takes home is a tranny

You ARE free to fly the Stars and Bars. This was about flying it in our state capitals as a Government flag. NAPCAR, Wallmart, etc removal are coporate decisions.

[The Legend]

Smoky they are called progressives for a reason .... You watch with the radical leftists on the Supreme Court don't be surprised if possession of that flag is criminalized

[old man d]

Let the flags fly. It is not about left or right, what it is about is FREEDOM let me repeat that again FREEDOM to display a flag that is part of OUR HISTORY. Freedom of expression.I for one have a Confederate Flag, an American Flag, a P.O.W. Flag and a Flag that says GOD BLESS AMERICA. Drive through the south you will see Americans flying both the American Flag  and The Confederate Flag on the same Flag Pole. I do not see a problem with that do you? HAPPY 4th and GOD BLESS AMERICA

The whole anti-confederate flag bullshit is getting absolutely ridiculous. The fact that a local paper went looking for them is even more ridiculous. They went cherry picking at a race track bcause it's not like a lot of folks around here even have a confederate flag, because we're in the north.

Sad day when you cant watch the Dukes of Hazzard without being considered racist.

I'm surprised they did not bring an NPR show with them. I see how easy the mainstream media got Napcar to cower down to grass roots traditions (that I'm glad I saw in 1969) to wave a historic flag in the Southern 500. Now the P/C crowd have taken over to destroy our country through taxation, regulation, open borders and affirmative action. Please keep this in mind next year.

Brian France and his lackeys may have cowered to the P/C whores but wait and see how the fans react to his spineless actions especially at the Southern tracks.

Want to bet the NASCAR P/C police won't let the networks show any infield/campground coverage of the fans

Since these P/C pukes started this "ban" I have seen more "Stars and Bars" flags flying than ever before in various places and on vehicles so i'd say their "master plan" is blowing up in their faces....

This whole pollitical correct bullcrap is way past out of control.  I don't have a rebel flag either, but by god if a fella or gal wants to fly the flag, then left wing progressive jack asses get the heck out of the way.  We as a country had better get our heads out of our rear ends soon or we as a nation are going to become irrellavent.  There are so many folks that think the left wingers are out of control but unfortunately our voices are not being heard.  The old phrase (the squeaky wheel gets the grease) has never been more plain as day as it is now.  4 people in Oklahoma said they wanted the 10 Commandments taken down and the courts caved to them,  1.9 percent of people in the USA are in the LGBT community and they now dictate what stood as the definition of marriage for thousands of years being changed to suit their needs.  Civil Unions would have sufficed but no we need to change thousands of years of what god said marriage was to now be something it is not ! Please speak out folks before it is too late!  We don't need to be mean and call others names that don't have the same ideals as many of us do, but we also need to make our voices heard!

Freedom of choice ! They keep taking more and more of it away. What should be banned is media coverage ! You give them the bait and they turn it into the longest drawn out issue they can. I wonder when soldiers are fighting for there lives if they ponder stupid issues such as what we do back here at home. My flag, yes the American flag, is proudly displayed on the front of my home 24/7. Yes, it's has a light shinning on her. O dam, the media will be knocking now. Independence day. Think about those words while watching tonight's race. I remember they would show the infield campers. American, Confederate, and your favorite driver or brand was next.

The Confederate flag has only been banned on government buildings.  Anyone else is free to fly their confederate flag anywhere they want.

and if you do you will be instantly branded a racist.
and in other news this week,if you take offense to 2 men sucking face in public you are also a bigot and taliban/ISIS sympathizer.
can't wait to see what happens next....geez

[flash49]

Well if you fly a confederate flag and you're not a racist, what do you care what other people think?  I could give two hoots if anyone flies a confederate flag, but if you're a northerner, what is the attraction?   The flag to me represents a treasonous act on the part of a segment of our country, trying to destroy the union.   I don't feel that's something to celebrate, but each to his own.
