What is wrong with people now a days?

Question

I was reading the sports heading and now it seems some african american lady is attempting to file a lawsuit for racism in NASCAR? Is it a redneck sport...yeah i think so, but that doesnt mean that its racist. I myself do not watch that stuff cause its boaring to me. But then again i dont watch basketball for the same reason. They say it has a bad image casue of all the white viewers? and that all the drivers are white? I guess i could say the same thing about basketball.. How many white NBA stars do you see on the court? How about football? If you answered not too many, then thats the right answer....and do i care? no! I doubt anyone in NASCAR would make comments like that to her, but I am sure she will get a lawyer that will push the color thing again! Maybe i should file a lawsuit on the Entire US professional sports buisness? DO I blame african americans for not watching NASCAR? NO, cause it is boaring! unless you enjoy watching a car going around in circle?

Answer 1

whoa...calm down lol...I don't think NASCAR is a racist sport either,but if she was treated unfairly for her race or gender as she stated,then NASCAR should step up and handle it.They should address all the people directly involved with it and then suck up their losses and pay the money..On the other hand,the lady should have reported the discrimination while she was still employed with NASCAR because it does make it seem a little fishy that she brings it up all of a sudden after being fired.That's why we have trials,though

Answer 2

Sounds like you have some issues.

Go try that lawsuit thing, let us know how you do with it.

I personally find it questionable that she waited 8 months after being terminated to do anything. It is as if someone said "hey, I saw this episode of Boston Legal and....".

Sounds like the lawsuit against the Duke Lacrosse players.

But if it did happen as she states, NASCAR and the employees should be held accountable.

Answer 3

I read all 43 pages of the lawsuit and 90% of it is nit picky bullsh*t.

Answer 4

Good luck with your Lawsuit.  I bet you have a good chance at that.

Now with the gal that filed against NASCAR. With prices going up, she figured now was a good time. I mean with gas prices at a record high, at the nation average at $4.00 a gallon, she figured heck, I'll sue NASCAR. BUT, if NASCAR did what she said they do, sue them for all their worth. I despise racist and sexist people.

Answer 5

I really dont understand what you are asking.  Sounds like a rant to me.

Answer 6

The word is boring not boaring. And the reason why anybody does anything stupid, irrational, or out of anger is because they are uneducated and have hurt feelings. If people would get a better education before they open their mouth and spew negativity, the might have some factual basis for their argument. All the negative c**p is non-productive. People with hurt feelings don't know how to contribute to society, so that's the only way they think they can accomplish anything. It's ignorance. People have a hard time running their own lives, so they get hurt feelings, and want to waste their time blaming it on other people. Ignorance. No control of their own destiny. And most of all hurt feelings.

Answer 7

wow... sensing some hostility from you.... i agree it is a red neck sport and the African American will never win because there are black nascar drivers.

Answer 8

If people did say everything she is claiming they did, it was a joke. She knew at the time it was a joke or she would have reported it then. NASCAR probably fired her for a legitimate reason and now she is seeing dollar signs. MONEY HUNGRY!!

Answer 9

Well she should settle down because Nascar is pushing to get natives into the sport.

Answer 10

Have a Xanax and sit down...

First, NASCAR does have a minority program for recruiting drivers, and it's not as if there have never been drivers of color (Bill Lester comes to mind).

Second, most sports have athletes of ALL races.  I don't see too many African-American NHL players but I'm sure they exist.

Third, looks like someone is trying to play the RACE card and took it to the wrong racing forum.

Can I have the stone out of your belly, troll? *g*

Answer 11

Sweet Pea, I'm throwing the "spelling" card: it's boring, not boaring.

Answer 12

Remember...that only white people are racist and all other races just speak the truth.  Her stories have so many holes, but what is even sadder, is that people will grab hold of this and run with it.  Unfortunately, in the end, it will turn out like the Duke lacrosse case where all she was trying to do was make a buck and tear people apart.

Answer 13

You know people always have issues with white sports.  NASCAR has never discriminated so the lawsuit is just stupidity.  I mean no disrespect but there is African American month, All black colleges, NAACP.  When the white people try to have something they fight and yell Racism.

Answer 14

She should take those rednecks for all their worth.  You don't accept co-workers treating you nasty.  She was right to  report these egregious incidents.
