NASCAR Shifts on Guns, Rejects Ad Showing Semiautomatic Rifle

Congrats NASCAR....you just shite on 80+% of your fans!!!

quote:

NASCAR’s changing position on guns follows Dick’s Sporting Good’s February 2018 decision to ban the sell of commonly owned semiautomatic rifles. Moreover, the change in NASCAR advertisement is occurring at exactly the same time as Walmart, Kroger, and Walgreens are banning open carry in their stores.

Next year, NASCAR is going to race souped up electric golf carts to show their support for the Green New Deal

NASCAR is in sad, sad shape.

They have been in decline for years.

This is a Hail Mary...throwing their lot in with the Prog hipster green deal millennial crowd.

Sorry, I'm not watching until they get a gay black female driver with a disability.

Yep, that’ll make all of those low-T liberals watch a race instead of another episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians.



NASCAR has been shite since the Car of Tomorrow, and they were declining before that.

the family running the business is making terrible decisions
When one family controls half of the venues, sets the schedule, and makes the rules, once things start going off track, it is hard to get going in the right direction again.

I was hoping that the next gen car in 2021 or whenever, which is supposed to look more like production models, would help some. But SJW moves like this and the banning of Confederate flags many years ago, and the sanitizing of the drivers is going to keep the die hard fan away.

Is this not the case study for the saying about wealth transfer. One generation makes it (Sr) next maintains it (Jr) and third squanders it (Brian)

Man I used to enjoy NASCAR wouldn't miss seeing a race on TV and went to Bristol for years. You couldn't pay me to go to a race today too much bullshite! Back in the day there were no segments, or none of this chase crap. When Dale Earnhardt died, and Rusty Wallace retired I cut way back. I bet I haven't watched 15 laps in the past 5 years and couldn't care less.

For me, the switch from RJ Reynolds to Nextel as the Cup Sponsor in '04 was when it started to go downhill. They started pushing for drivers with squeaky clean, "sponsor-friendly" images and over-complicating the points system, abandoning their core fan base in the process. I used to watch every race religiously, but I haven't seen one in probably 10 years.

This is just NASCAR trying to get in with the left before the green new deal makes it impossible to race anymore

Every single non felon in the country that watches Nascar has at least 20 guns.

Smart move.
