NASCAR Called 'Bastion of White Supremacy'

Je$$e Jacka$$ shakes you down for 250K and still sez yer racist. Why am I not surprised?

The NLPC is the Washington, D.C.-based legal watchdog group that filed a formal complaint about Jackson's finances with the Internal Revenue Service in 2001.

Anybody know the status of the IRS complaint?

Everyone knows that simply being white in America is now prima facie evidence of being a hatemongering criminal. And being a self-appointed black leader permits you to call anyone who crosses you a "racist" with impunity.

This is the kind of crap that PUSHes people into a state of resistance, or outright hostility, to the cause of racial color blindness. If these racists refuse to let it die, then why shouldn't everyone else, just to stay on the defensive?

I can see it now, race based preferences for seating at the track. If you are minority, you get preference for the high seats at the finish line (to make up for all the years of deprivation). This will be the subjective, not the objective use of race......

Hey, where's the EXTORTION ALERT!!!!

TOP FIVE REASONS BLACK GUYS DON'T PLAY HOCKEY

(We only got 5 'cause The Man wouldn't let us have 10.)

5. It’s cold out there.
4. Scared to get a gold tooth knocked out.
3. Don’t want to be around white guys with sticks.
2. Don’t want to be around with a white guy in a mask.

And the number 1 reason black guys don't play Hockey...
1. Don’t feel the need to dominate yet another sport.

I am not going to go somewhere where I am seeing confederate flags all the time," Mills said. Boo freakin' hoo.

If you are minority, you get preference for the high seats at the finish line (to make up for all the years of deprivation)

Not to mention the first minority team will likely get all kinds of gimmes and concessions from NASCAR. Hell, they'll probably even waive qualifying if your skin color contributes to the right metric.

Nascar track expansions coming up. East LA, East St. Louis, and Harlem.......

Jesse Jackson? Rikkia Mills? They are free to do what everyone else does: sponsor a team. In the case of Mills, a drag racing driver, very, very few from that segment of the sport have successfully made a transition into stock car racing where you actually have to turn the car. The stop watch doesn't care what color you are, but it does care about your lap time.

It's easy to bring "diversity" to a place like Dennys. It's difficult to equate an illiterate hash slinger or order taker to the skill necessary to be a driver or crew member in NASCAR.

Bringing in black drivers or crew members for the sole purpose of adding color to the track will certainly succeed. Unfortunately, that color will be blood when the lack of experience and skill gets people killed.

If NASCAR is committed to bringing more non-whites into their organization it starts at the fan level and I don't see many black NASCAR fans. When I drive through traditionally black neighborhoods here in Mississippi I don't see a lot of black kids out tinkering with their car engines like I do the white kids. I don't see what NASCAR can do to change that attitude, that has to happen on the personal level. NASCAR and racing "employees" start out as car and racing enthusiasts and I don't see that interest in the young black kids. I guess NASCAR needs to be forced to start a "Thumping Bass" or "Loud Obnoxious Stereo" or "Expensive Shiney Tire Rims" division to further appease Reverend Shakedown.

If NASCAR is a bastion of white supremacy, then what is the NBA? Crap like this makes me sick.

[bullseye1911]

Seems to me a black pit crew would give even Jeff Gordon's team a run for the money. He's in and out in about 14 seconds. My tires and wheels got stole in Detriot in half that time!!!

Another Rainbow/Push hit and run. Coming to the rescue...the NASCAR ambulance full of life support equipment...MONEY.

I've been watching NASCAR for a lot of years as well as the guys on the local circuits who dream of getting a ride in the big show. There are 43 drivers out of a couple of hundred million people out there. That's less than any other sport on the planet, I believe. And nepotism is the best way to get into the sport.

If African-Americans want into the sport, they are going to have to form the teams, get the millions needed from the sponsors, and move up the ladder like the rest of the owners.

[AAABEST]

Let's just hope this doesn't get into the hands of the supreme court somehow.
