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.
NASCAR bans the confederate flag at events "to provide a welcoming and inclusive environment."

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.
People who own human beings as slaves, who went to war resulting in over 600 thousand Americans dead because they were too lazy to work themselves or too greedy to hire and pay people to do that work aren't honorable people.
Anyone who sees such people as respectable and flies their flag, are traitors to America and everyone who gave their lives for freedom, liberty and America.
I'm tired of having to be politically correct for the feelings of people who want to fly the flag of traitors.
The only reason the civil war happened was because lazy people in the south wanted to keep human beings as slaves to do the work those white people were just too down right lazy to do. Or too greedy cheap to pay someone a wage to do. No such people should ever been respected or treated with anything but contempt and distain.
The people who started that war are the lazy slave owners. They started it at Ft. Sumpter. They lost the war they started.
All the conservatives need to get over it. It's been nearly 150 years since they lost that war.
They lost. Move on. They should stop trying to force their traitors and their flag on us.
The losers don't get to dictate things to the winners in war.They lost. America won. If they don't like it, that's their problem.
