thats really fucked up :S, Henry is my favourite player and damn he is so cool D:
I thought that here in latin america we had a problem with soccer, I thought that we were too violent and people in the stadiums were not safe, I thought that in Europe people was civilized and behave.. I guess i was wrong, they have a much bigger problem than we do.
Man that's odd... racism in spain? I mean, I'm sure just like with the slanted eyes scandal this is just a misunderstanding.. the world just doesn't get spanish humor is all.
I am currently training individuals in SCBW for cash. PM if interested.

Wow...I was always under the impression that there was much more racial tolerance in Europe, but I guess you'll always find a huge crowd of asshole anywhere you look.
Theres racism everywhere, its just a matter of how socially acceptable it is to be racist. If a community or country doesn't make it clear racism is not ok then people won't be discouraged from acting out and it will be a growing problem.

geez, it's nothing hateful, just harmless fun making, black people really should just get a sense of humor, right spain?
i can't believe people are taking offense to this! it's not racism! the bananas and monkey chants are affectionate! they love him! can't they take a joke!? i feel sorry for the black people that are ashamed of their inner banana monkeyness. they should be proud!
edit: and the spanish coach saying "show that black piece of shit that you are better than him" is not racist, obviously, i can't believe henry would take offense to that, the spanish coach has black friends! obviously the fans and the coach are very open and accepting of race, they aren't racist.
edit2: don't get the point of this video tho - maybe just to cause an uproar? obviously not racist conduct.

In Santiago, you can walk in the streets with your favorite Soccer team jersey right?
London, you may not- You may get killed no joke~
I saw a documentary in a neighboorhood in London where people in a house the first thing they would ask before someone came in their home that they didnt know was "Who's your Team" If it was another differing from theirs they'd be like "Sorry!!!"
All they talk about is FUCKING ITALY AND SPAIN. There are no mention about OTHER COUNTRIES.
I go to soccer regularly in Sweden with some friends and there is no fucking racism, we cheer as much on the "different skin" players as we do on our "native born skin" player.
It's not like the entire population of Spain are racists. Just like Chuiu said, you'll see racism anywhere you go in the world, just maybe to different degrees.

That would be a waste of bananas. Instead, they should be forced to run across some of the many undefused minefields in Africa. If they somehow survive, they should run through it again....
edit: hahahaha Hotbid. That was beautiful.

I guess i was referring to the violence inside the stadiums, but that (the thing about london) it's pretty harsh.

black people are this and red people are that and people who live on that side of that river are like this lets do our best not to understand each other and keep thinking in terms of race and nationality.
Life will soon have passed you by. Don't take for granted the beauty that is all around you in each and every moment.
guys, if i were black i totally wouldn't be offended, monkeys are cute and bananas are tasty, i totally would be like yeah ooo ooo aah aah hell yeah monkeys!!! and then turn to the fans and playfully call them sweaty whities! and we'd laugh and pat each other on the back and sing kumbaya in a circle
people that are offended by this have no sense of humor and obviously don't understand what true racial understanding is about

It's been about for a long long time.. but yeah.. Here in England and all over the U.K there are so many "dedicated" football fans who are just plain thugs.
Take a look at how well fan behaved at this years euro 2008.. It was fine but only for one reason and that reason was there were no English football fans to start anything which is normally what happens..
It sucks but racism is everywhere.

Let me guess, those black soccer players were only offended by what those racist people were doing/saying because they chose to be? It would have been better if they had just let it go?
