Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight.

Man it is going to be an interesting tournament off the field.

People really don't realize how much more racism there is outside America. shite is nothing in the US.

I have no doubt he will walk off the pitch. WIth all of hype on the racism, this tournament seems to be doomed from the beginning. Not looking good for UEFA.

Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleh Voloshyn said the program was unjust and smacked of arrogance and xenophobia, portraying "Eastern Europe as mentally not equal to the rest of Europe."

I love this response from Ukraine vis a vis the video.

How did they come to the conclusion that the video painted them as being "not mentally equal to the rest of Europe?" That's some damning self-criticism right there

That said, I agree with their self critique. There is something seriously wrong with these people.

And it's not like there is a different way of interpreting what was going on and the film was slanted towards that. If you have a crowd of white men doing the Nazi salute and yelling Seig Heil, there's really only one way to look at that.
