What the hell is up with Spaniards and sports? Throwing bananas and monkey chants at footballers, wearing blackface to Lewis Hamilton's F-1 race, and now this idiocy.




I can't help but laugh at their childish ignorance For one time imperial globetrotters this nation seems to fall short on cosmopolitanism, but I suppose that is what military dictatorship does long term....

As I have reiterated on many occasions, I have no respect for blatant racism that defines the feelings of many Spanish citizens. In my younger days my travels thought Spain were characterized by my inability to control my fist‘s(true to my NY roots) in the face of such stupidity, but now I just don’t visit the country.



I wish this guy would have tried this out on me

"What the hell is up with Spaniards and sports? Throwing bananas and monkey chants at footballers, wearing blackface to Lewis Hamilton's F-1 race, and now this idiocy."

I saw that in yesterday's paper (the players with the slanted eyes) and I was shocked. But then I thought about where it came from and I wasn't so shocked anymore. The mother land. Ha! The motherfu**er land is more like it.

Insensitive? Yes!

Stupid? Of course.


But people really need to lighten up! It was just a joke.

That video angered the crap out of me for real. That other guy was as oblivious as a wall. I would pound that motherf----r's face in!!! If that scrawny metrosexual asshole did that to my sister or spouse I'd be doing some serious jail time right now and he'd be in a Barcelona morgue cuz I'd kill him. I don't understand Spanish though so can someone help me understand fully. I hear this is connected to racism somehow?

Hay apparently he was having a racist convo on the phone but loud enough for others to hear. Not much more detail other than what is clear in the footage. It definitely makes the blood boil.

The word "coward" doesn't even begin to describe that fool.

From the trickle of headlines on this topic I have a feeling we could see things get very ugly In Europe when it comes to race and immigration. It is certainly no secret they have the capacity to become very hostile and hateful.

This article makes me wonder whether we'll see similar situations in US. One would think knowing they won't be majority for long will cause awareness of the need to build harmony and union, but then again it may just make them feel threatened. Anyway the populations in both countries need to realize they have no choice in the matter, not if they want to keep up with the Chinas and Indias of the world.

there you go. i always said that Spain was the laughing stock of Europe and the toilet bowl of civilisation. why am i not surprised that anthonyc finds humor in throwing bananas at black people, and dressing in blackface? anthonyc, do you make any money selling the bananas, or are you just being an imbecile for free?

you want to know if this can happen in america, Manhattanite? try a simple experiment. see if you can get some white guy at Shea stadium to throw bananas at black ballplayers, and watch as he is beaten to a blood pulp by blacks and whites alike!
