I’m not a very big NASCAR fan at all. To me the sport is boring but I felt this is worth writing about.

Last night on facebook, I put up a post about this tragedy. How Tony Stewart accidentally killed a 20 year old race car driver for stepping out in the racetrack wanting to confront Tony over something. I wrote on facebook on how I’m glad that Tony Stewart is not gonna get charged over killing Kevin Ward Jr. and then I wrote how that stupid kid shouldn’t have stepped out in the tracks like that. Yes, those were my exact words. I wrote stupid kid in the facebook post. Sure enough, a few people replied being offended by that comment saying I should have been more respectful and compassionate to Kevin Ward Jr. I deleted the post ’cause I didn’t want to deal with a heated debate.

My question is, why should I be more respectful and courteous to Kevin Ward Jr.??? What he did was pretty stupid. It was proven that Kevin Ward Jr. was high on pot at the time that happened. The evidence is in the toxicology report. He was completely stoned out of his mind while driving. So he stops the car, gets out and walks out in the middle of the race track with a bunch of other race cars driving at least 200 mph??? Kevin Ward Jr. made that decision… of course it was his fault and a pretty stupid thing to do.

Tony Stewart hit Kevin ’cause I’m pretty positive that Tony didn’t see him. I mean, driving in a fast car like that would be pretty difficult to see someone standing on the racetrack, won’t you think??? Why would Tony intentionally hit and kill someone?

It was Kevin’s own damn fault. He made that decision and brought it upon himself so he definitely had it coming. He was an idiot for walking out in the middle of the race like that.

I knew Tony was innocent from the very beginning. Yeah, I’m sure there’s going to be a bunch of weed lovers who will make claims that weed is no big deal but when you’re racing, weed is a big deal. I can see NASCAR doing some strict drug testing on racers from now on after the discovery that Kevin was under the influence of weed.

Tony didn’t do anything criminal. He’s not a monster or a murderer like some are treating him like one. It was accidental.

This is why I try to keep debates and my opinions of news stories off of facebook ’cause people in there won’t let me have my honest opinion when I should have every right to have one. Just more typical lib nonsense. Like I said, they’re all for freedom of speech until they disagree with you.

Kevin Ward Jr. made a dumb stupid move. Smoking pot before a race??? Really???

I’m glad Tony is not getting charged. Now he can move on with his life and do the thing that he is best at, racing in NASCAR. Of course, there will be some that will never move on and accept it for what it is. They will always find ways for Tony to get held accountable like a lawsuit perhaps???

I’m on Tony’s side. He was just doing his thing. Doing what he was supposed to do, racing. He didn’t mean to kill that pot smoking kid. It was accidental. Period.
