I'm betting it was a track worker that lives locally, no way would anyone on a team that travels with the sport be stupid enough to do this. And no fans have access to these areas.

With all the money and risk riding on the line there has to be cameras on the stalls, right??

I just read that only 5,000 fans were allowed in attendance. Due to COVID, I’m guessing zero were allowed access to the garages (another poster mentioned he had a pass that allowed access to garages before).

So that pretty much leaves track workers or someone on a team.

I agree that I doubt anyone on a team is dumb enough to do this. That is absolute career suicide.

It would still be pretty dumb for a track worker too. Wouldn’t they also know about the cameras? Your life is pretty much ruined once you get caught doing something like this.

Sounds like one dumb mother****er.

Not saying its right but what'd you think was gonna happen. Its Nascar. As redneck as it gets. Some black guy asks a bunch of backwoods hillbillies to take down there redneck flags. You didn't expect some pushback?

And that is exactly why it needed to happen.

Racism is a worldwide issue that impacts all of humanity.

It's not confined to only America or a geographical region of the country.

Stop perpetuating stereotypes of the good folk in Alabama.

The stereotypes of people from Alabama are stereotypes for a reason. Don't play stupid.

Let's demonize everybody in the state because of a few scumbags.

Every state and city in the U.S. has racist scumbags. Alabama is no different.

If you don't think this region or state is unique in comparison to the rest of the country or rest of the world in regard to this then come what may.

I think you would have to bury your head super deep in the sand to pretend ITS THE SAME EVERYWHERE IT EXISTS AROUND THE WORLD.

How much information would you have to ignore to believe that. The few bad apples approach does not even begin to apply here.

Well, the first group that comes to mind when Alabama is mentioned is the KKK. The KKK is so tiny these days, so insignificant and so marginalized, that it doesn't have enough members to fit into a phone booth.

Every area has a dark past if you look. Liberal utopia Los Angeles has an abhorrent history of racism. The Zoot Suit Riots just barely scratches the surface of its fine résumé.

Ok my friend. Racism is the exact same the world over and there is absolutely no reason why people associate it more so with a place like Alabama.

Feel free to clutch your pearls and be shocked when everyone who speaks of long standing racial issues in the area speak of Alabama.

The editor and publisher of a local paper in Alabama is under fire for penning an editorial calling for mass lynchings by the Ku Klux Klan (KKK)

In this case, the editor and publisher never said anything about any race being lynched, just political opponents. But he used the l word and he invoked the KKK, so liberal lightweights are going to use it as an example that Jim Crow is alive and well in the South.

It's just an outlier case anyway. Every state has these extreme cases of disgusting people. The good thing about 2020 are these people are singled out and their reputations are destroyed and they have a difficult time making a living.

I’ve lived down here in the South for 10 years now. Alabama doesn’t just have a few bad apple racists. There is a shit ton of racist ****s in that state.
