Not all NASCAR people are siding with Trump -- with Dale Earnhardt Jr. throwing his support behind NFL protesters ... despite several NASCAR owners bashing them.
After POTUS said NFL owners should fire any "son of a bitch" who takes a knee, two of the most powerful men in NASCAR gave major stamps of approval.
Richard Petty said, "Anybody that don’t stand up for that ought to be out of the country. Period."
Team owner Richard Childress was asked what he would do if any of his staffers protested the anthem -- "Get you a ride on a Greyhound bus when the national anthem is over."
But Earnhardt -- hands down the most popular NASCAR driver of the last 10 years -- sees things differently ... and weighed in Monday morning with a quote from John F. Kennedy.
"All Americans R granted rights 2 peaceful protests," Dale Jr. tweeted.
"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."

Someone should tell Jr. that protesting our national anthem will reap peaceful protests in return. People will quit buying your products and tune you out.
The President has the right to say what he thinks too.
Not during a national ceremony, asshats
Stage your protests on your own time and at your own venues
Go To Hell Dale Earnhardt Jr.!
These morons really don’t get it do they, they work for US..without US they would have NO money..we pay their damn salary..they want to protest America FINE, not on OUR dime they can protest at home
Meh ... he’s turned liberal anyway so who cares?
He's retiring after this season and his season is basically over already.
I think that just changed.
So black police officers kneel to support BLM which was formed to protest police brutstkit against blacks and attacked police officers outright in protests... including black police officers like these.
I’ll lay good money these officers don’t even understand why they’re kneeling except they’re antiTrump.
Me too. He looks phony and talks phony as well.
Remember that time he took his whole crew to see a Michael Moore movie.
The guy has always been a douche nozzle.
Wanna take any bets Junior doesn’t have a great race this weekend?
I’m thinking he has a close encounter with the wall.
Sure, p*off the base. Great career move for your franchise, Dale Earnhardt Jr.
The US Flag has been demeaned and despised by thugs, and you sympathize with THAT? Poor choice of hill to die upon.
So Dale Jr. supports “revolution”? Really? And why is that, Dale? The Constitution doesn’t work for you? You support cop killers? Let’s hear more!
I was just thinking the same thing.
Shinny car ya got there Jr, be a shame if it got some paint rubbed on it in the corner.
Dale? Seriously?
Here is his Facebook page link...
I’m sure all his fans want to know.

Well, he is retiring after this season, so not much for him to lose...
Hmmmm. In the overall scheme of things, this is NOT a major issue. NASCAR, nfl, nba, wnba, mlb whatever. For me anyway. I served to protect their right to disrespect me. Water, ducks back.
A better bet would be which driver punts him into the wall.
My money is on Brad Keselowski
