The wussification continues.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - Fans of the "Dukes of Hazzard" television show remember the famous (or infamous) General Lee.
However the iconic car won't be part of a planned pre-race ceremony at Phoenix International Raceway after NASCAR stepped in and tabled plans to include the General Lee due to the prominent placement of the Confederate flag on its roof.

Oh, good grief!
bumpity
PC gone nuts
I don’t think the ruling class or wanna bees would ever see the Flag! So why even bother to appease them?
Let me guess, if they cover it up with a muslim flag it will be allowed? How many black NASCAR drivers are there? Anyone know?
I watched a little of that TV show in the 1980s in America, and on French TV, I was shocked at the sex and depravity of European TV and hoped that it would never get that bad here.
At the time I didn’t imagine that we would get all the sex and depravity, fart jokes, etc, and that the Dukes of Hazards car would be banned.
When I went to a Nascar race the Confederate flags outnumbered the U.S. flags about three to one.
“The image of the Confederate flag is not something that should play an official role in our sport as we continue to reach out to new fans and make NASCAR more inclusive.”
OK, get a stolen Ford pick up from south of the border, put a Mexican flag on it and throw in an AK decal on the side and call it the “Attorney General Holder”. Inclusive enough for ya?
They should have let Archie Bunker drive it around the track. Oh wait. He’s dead.
I want my country back!
As another example, although I no longer smoke, the smoking Nazis have made it a heinous crime to enjoy a cigarette. There was a time when the mark of a true gentleman was to light a lady's cigarette.

Now Jeremiah Durrance would get slapped with jailtime from Charlotte Vale. Likewise, when I was growing up sodomy was rightfully considered a SIN and sodomites were justly ostracized.
What a crazy world. Smoking is now a sin and the homosexual agenda has made their perversion the norm and acceptable to many. I'm just glad I'm old so I won't have much longer to witness things get even worse.
Payback for booing Michelle-my-Belle?
So NASCAR has “really” turned left for good.... Vote with your dollars folks.
NASCRAP. . died when it became all about these drivers with friar tuck haircuts, cookie cutter cars and then (barf) Toyotas.
Bring back the days before power steering, cigarette lighters left in cuz who in the hell could drive 500 miles without a smoke?What a bunch of wussified dandy's nowadays - they bear absolutely no resemblance to David Pearson, Richard Petty, Buddy Baker or Cale Yarborough. Now we have Danica Patrick and the Busch's - eeven Formula 1 is much more manly than NASCRAP and some of those dudes are Frenchmen and Krauts,
We can boycott NASCAR and support dirt-track racing.
I saw it in the Philippines and canada. Never bothered me as Daisy Duke was the one who gave me these “strange feelings”..
