Yesterday I tweeted a comment to NASCAR about the “Religious Freedom” act issued in Indiana.
@NASCAR Should support Equality Rights in #Indiana; pull the Indy race and go to another Road Course instead!

One of my friends asked me if I was trying to start-up trouble. Of course I was!
Today NASCAR issued their own press release on the matter.
Statement from NASCAR on Indiana legislation March 31, 2015, Official NASCAR release, NASCAR.com DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (March 31, 2015) — “NASCAR is disappointed by the recent legislation passed in Indiana. We will not embrace nor participate in exclusion or intolerance. We are committed to diversity and inclusion within our sport and therefore will continue to welcome all competitors and fans at our events in the state of Indiana and anywhere else we race.” — NASCAR Senior Vice President and Chief Communications Officer Brett Jewkes |
Way to go NASCAR! So proud to be a fan of your sport!
