NASCAR crewman fired for anti-gay tweet<\/span><\/p>\n

Posted on June 30, 2011<\/p>\n

\"\"A Red Bull Racing crewman was fired for an anti-gay tweet he posted Sunday night following the Sprint Cup race at Infineon Raceway.<\/p>\n

\n

Prior to flying out of San Francisco on Sunday night, Jeremy Fuller, a contract employee and tire changer, posted on Twitter a photo of a gay pride banner on a car with the comment, \u201cThis is way [sic] I don\u2019t live here!\u201d<\/p>\n

One of his Twitter followers responded with a tweet that read, \u201cif we could get rid of them, it\u2019d be a lot better.\u201d<\/p>\n

It appeared that Fuller later replied to that tweet, but did not re-tweet the original message. The response read: \u201clol.. Don\u2019t we all wish!\u201d<\/p>\n

Fuller said Tuesday night that his initial tweet was meant as a joke to another crew member. He said he never posted that response and was on a plane when that appeared on his Twitter account. He took down the posts Monday morning, and Fuller said Tuesday night that he had been fired by Red Bull Racing and by Turner Motorsports, where he also worked a few races as a tire changer in the Nationwide Series.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

He continued that God wasn't important, wasn't real, and our parents just used God to impose restrictions on us because they were inadequate to parent effectively. I knew then I was going to be involved in a war and that I would have to be in Jesus Christ's Army. Even then, I knew the United States of America would cease to exist without the vast majority of its citizens voluntarily submitting to the Perfect and Good Laws of the Holy Bible. I am a woman who loves the Lord Jesus Christ. I am tired of seeing our LORD denigrated from the school house to the White House. I search the Internet for items that ought to serve as a warning to Americans and Christians all through America, but the nation seems to be sleeping. Wake up America! You are losing your freedoms, your children and your country.
