FIFA ended their investigation on the racist ‘monkey’ chants that came from a group of Croatian fans during the England match earlier this month. The chants were geared at England midfielder, Emile Heskey, who is a black man.
The Croatian FA was fined 30,000 Swiss Francs for the incident which is definitely something they should be happy with. I thought for sure that FIFA would make Croatia play one game behind closed doors (possibly vs. Ukraine) or not allow their fans a chance at tickets for the England rematch at Wembley next year.
There’s almost an investigation for Croatia every year because of our fans. So it’s either that we’re doing something really wrong in the stands and FIFA should slam the door on us so we learn or they’re just after us for whatever reason. But these little slaps on the wrist will not work, I assure you.
Remember now, race is just a "social construct", the only difference between us is "melanin".
Sunday on the National Geographic channel there's going to be a show on a cannibalistic tribe; you must be "tolerant" because they are a part of the "human race" and are in essence no different from us, they just lack "economic opportunity", if they had a "level playing field", if it weren't for "racisism" and "white privelege", they would achieve at the same level as the white man, it's just a matter of "guns, germs and steel".
I have no problem with the swastika as it pre-dates nazi germany by about 4000 years and the swastika is part of croatian history dating back to the original croatian aryans from the persian empire, plus the germanic ostrogoths and even the slavs I believe used the swastika as a symbol. I don't have a problem with the U either as it's political freedom of speech; if clowns are allowed to were CCCP and che gueverra tee shirts than surely the other side should be allowed the same freedom, no? I do however have a bit of problem with monkey chants cuz it's kinda dumb, although if you take it too seriously as FIFA does – then you are the one with the problem.
…please where can I buy a unicorn?
Croatia is an ultra nationalistic country and thats the way it is going to stay for a long time.
When people like the Bad Blue Boys and Torcida get together theres no hope of well behaved fans. The BBB don’t care if the HNS get a couple of fines and I’m sure they don’t care if a black man gets offended by their actions and neither do I.
Can’t wait for the game against Ukraine…Petric scored 2 goals for Hamburg the other day..lets hope he can start doing that for Croatia!!!
