Tony Stewart |
Its no secret that NASCAR superstar Tony Stewart has some serious anger management issues.
In March of 2013, Stewart ran over to Joey Logano after the Auto Club 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup race, and attacked Logano.
After the incident, Stewart, a three time NASCAR cup champion, who was upset that Logano had put a block on him during the race, said, "If he ever turns down across in front of me again, I don't care what lap it is, he won't make it through the other end of it."
This past June, Tony Stewart confronted Matt Kenseth, and in what many called a temper tantrum, Stewart threw his helmet onto Kenseth's hood.
Earlier, in referring to Kenseth, Tony Stewart made what is now seems to be an eerie threat.
"I’m going to run over him every chance I’ve got from now ‘til the end of the year," Stewart said.
"Every chance I’ve got."

Yes.
Trash talk is part of competitive sports.
However, when it comes to Tony Stewart, a disturbing incident Saturday night at a race track in Canandaigua, NY has allot of race fans disgusted.
Tony Stewart hit, ran over, and killed driver Kevin Ward Jr.
In a graphic video, posted to YouTube, which I've included below, Kevin Ward Jr. is seen losing control of his number 13 car, before hitting a wall at Canandaigua Motorsports Park.
In tne video, Tony Stewart's number 14 car seems to push, or run Ward's car into the wall.

One car is seen swerving to avoid hitting Ward, but then something very disturbing happens.
Kevin Ward Jr. was pronounced dead on arrival at FF Thompson Hospital in Canandaigua, NY.
According to Ontario County, NY Sheriff Phil Povero, Tony Stewart, who is scheduled to race at the NASCAR Cheez It today afternoon, in Watkins Glen, which is about an hour away from Canandaigua, Stewart was "shaken up."
Povero said the incident is being considered an accident.

I'm not so sure.
What I see on that video is very disturbing.
The fact that Tony Stewart accelerates, and turns his car into Kevin Ward, then hits and runs him over?
I don't think that's any accident.
Then, when you factor in Stewart's history, I truly believe Tony Stewart intentionally killed this young man.
I truly believe that in the video you are about to see, Tony Stewart intentionally ran over and killed an innocent young man, in front of shocked race fans, including young children.
I truly believe that in the video you are about to see, Tony Stewart intentionally ran over and killed an innocent young man, in front of shocked race fans, including young children.
And I think because of who he is, he'll get away with it.
As an activist who has spent the past 20 plus years exposing incidents of police and official misconduct and corruption, I can tell you firsthand that Ontario County, NY Sheriff Phil Povero, and the Ontario County District Attorney's office are known to cover up and make things go away.
I wouldn't be at all surprised if they make this go away as well.
As someone who doesn't really follow racing, I am disgusted by this incident, where a young man, full of passion for racing lost his life.
At the hands of an individual who has a long history of being violent and unable to control his emotions.
I also think that the fact that Tony Stewart will still be racing Sunday afternoon, just hours after running over and killing Kevin Ward Jr., pretty much shows what kind of person he is.
When you watch the video, I want you to pay special attention to a few key things.
I want you to watch as Tony Stewart revs his engine, and then jerks his steering to the right, driving right at, into, and over Kevin Ward Jr.
And those two things, right there, is what I feel makes this intentional.
Tony Stewart knew exactly what he was doing.

Update:
Tony Stewart's Public Image Damage Control PR Campaign Begins As He Decides Not to Race at Watkins Glen.
Am I the only one calling it like I see it?
While Corporate-America run mainstream news media and sports outlets like ESPN continue to spin this disgusting incident by defending Tony Stewart, as the family of Kevin Ward Jr. begins to deal with the sad truth that their son is gone?
In a classic example of Public Image Damage Control 101, Tony Stewart has decided not to race at Watkins Glen this afternoon.
Interesting, since Tony Stewart, and his Stewart-Haas racing team were passionately adamant that he would in fact race.
Actually, Tony Stewart had every intention of still racing, just hours after hitting, running over, and killing Kevin Ward Jr.
Gotta love PR campaigns.
