Thank you for referencing that article digger48. Please note that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

Unless I missed something, the article doesn’t mention if this a state or federal lawsuit. So I will presume (ass-u-me?) that it is a federal lawsuit, corrections welcome.

If it is a federal lawsuit then the following major constitutional problem exists.

A major problem with new citizens, and I’ll include not only legal immigrants, but also the decendents of the freedmen too, is that new citizens, meaning new voters, and also illegal aliens who unlawfully vote, is the following. Such people are not required to prove knowledge about the fed’s constitutionally limited powers before becoming a voting citizen.

Consequently, corrupt candidates for federal office are able to trick these new voters into voting for them by promising them free things that these new voters don’t understand are unconstitutional — unfortunately, low-information, life-long citizens have the same problem.

Getting back to the NASCAR diversity lawsuit, the misguided people who are filing this diversity lawsuit in a jurisdiction that has no constitutional authority to address the issue, are unthinkingly helping to unconstitutonally expand the corrupt federal government’s powers by doing so imo.

From related threads ...

Note that the only race-based right that the states have amended the Constitution to expressly protect deals with voting rights as evidenced by the 15th Amendment. But since the racing profession is clearly outside the scope of voting rights, the feds have no constitutional authority to stick their big noses in this discrimination / diversity issue.

The problem is that the corrupt feds have historically seized any opportunity to unconstitutionally expand their powers.

In fact, James Madison and Thomas Jefferson had warned patriots to be on their guard against the feds unconstitutionally expanding their power in subtle ways, this lawsuit a good example of this imo.

Finally, even if the states had expressly constitutionally protected against discrimination outside the scope of voting issues, note that the Supreme Court had clarified in United States v. Cruikshank that enumerated constitutional rights protect citizens only from actions of the state and federal governments, not from individual citizens.

Remember in November !

Patriots need to support Trump / Pence by also electing a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that will not only work within its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers to support Trump’s vision for making America great again for everybody, but will also put a stop to unconstitutonal federal taxes and likewise unconstitutional inteference in state affairs as evidenced by misguided discrimination lawsuits.

Note that such a Congress will also probably be willing to fire state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices.

NASCAR denies discrimination and said in a statement that Cox’s suit is an attempt to gain publicity, and that it would pursue action against cox for defamation.

Wonder if Brainless will also seek damages for the looting of the NASCAR Hall of Fame last night?

They could never Race because during Green Flag the G Forces in turns would send the pistol under the seat all the way to the right side of the car out of reach and during Yellow Flag they couldn’t snag the Pistol while scrubbing the Marbles off the Tar’s.

I won’t even get started on the massive theft of Wheels,Tar’s and Tools from the Pits.
