Because two Chechens were signed
quote:
The offices of Israeli football club Beitar Jerusalem have been damaged by fire in a suspected arson attack. The blaze came a day after four fans were charged over racist chanting against the club's recruitment of Muslim players. No-one was hurt in the blaze but the club's administrative offices suffered extensive damage, police said. Last month Beitar Jerusalem signed two Chechen players, breaking a tradition of not signing Arabs or Muslims.

Meanwhile, other Beitar Fans gave standing ovations when one of the Muslim players entered the game this weekend

"I came today to show that not all Beitar fans are punks and racists," said Yair Sina, a 49-year-old lifelong Beitar fan. "I won't let them take away my love for the team."

So what we see here is that US fans are by far the most tolerant in the sport?

This what pisses me off about ignorant fans here in the states when they call someone else racist i.e. Ole Miss and from some of the stuff I have seen go on world wide we wouldn't even be considered in this category. But because we have a history with it and to ignorant people being ignorant nothing ever changes so therefore all Ole Miss people are racist. Wow that shite just pisses me off. And does the media ever talk about that shite like when one our own, Jozy Altidore, gets racially assulted; of course not. But when a fire alarm gets pulled in a dorm after an election and people go outside ... and ONE drunk college student burns ONE DAMN obama sign ... THERE IS frickING RACE RIOTS AT OLE MISS and its reported on every fricking station across America. People here are quite ignorant and from my time spent trying to follow the global news one could see that in fact we as Americans might actually be one of the most tolerant peoples on the planet compared to others out there. Sorry. End. Rant.

Well hot damn ... I'm embarrassed now. Sorry bro I was kinda worked up because I had this discussion with a few people at the bar last night. Given they were from memphis and never left the place ever they had a very simple minded view on the subject. Anyway I last night I just gave up because I got tired of being talked over just so they didn't have to hear the other side and that just boiled over today and when I saw this thread I thought it was a perfect place to let it out. My bad though I was blinded with rage and did catch the sarcasm that time. I apologize for being an arse

I figured even an Ole Miss fan would be able to catch on to that sarcasm. I guess I was wrong. You seem extremely worked up. You should probably step away from the computer and take a few breaths. I'd hate for you to have a brain aneurysm over something so trivial as the (joking) opinion of a user on an internet message board.

I don't think I'd wish my worst enemy to frick himself, eat a bag of dicks, then die in a fire.
