Another straw in the wind

Posted by Guessedworker on Thursday, 22 December 2011 01:57.

A few weeks ago Luis Suarez, a Uruguayan footballer currently overpaid by Liverpool Football Club, thoughtfully provided anti-white activists everywhere with a golden opportunity to jump up and down about “racism”. He said the word “black” in his own language to Patrice Evra, an African footballer currently over-paid by Manchester United. Evra is known for playing the race card from time to time, and he duly obliged.

The result for Suarez, perhaps inevitable given the Football Association’s keen desire to demonstrate its anti-racist credentials to the world, was an 8-game suspension and £40,000 fine.

This was not expected for so slight an incursion of orthodox speech requirements. There is dissent, particularly from the direction of Liverpool.

In a hard-hitting statement released in the wake of the ruling by a three-man commission, Liverpool made a set of claims that they believed showed that the judgement of the three-man commission, and conduct of the FA, was flawed. It amounted to one of the most strident attacks on the governing body by a member club in recent years and puts the two organisations at loggerheads.

In a series of criticisms – some aimed at the three-man commission of Paul Goulding QC, Denis Smith and Brian Jones – the club claimed that Suarez’s fate had effectively been decided before he was even first interviewed about the events of the home game against Manchester United on 15 October.

The club said: “The FA was determined to bring charges against Luis Suarez, even before interviewing him at the beginning of November.”

The Telegraph has run a reader poll today. The current vote total stands at 13,278 of whom 48.72% declare the FA’s verdict “completely wrong” and a further 18.65% “too harsh”.

That’s a good enough sample size to suggest that such sentiment must extend well beyond the “right-wing” Telegraph readers.

Meanwhile, the paper’s editors were forced to close the Suarez-related comment threads as the anti-anti-racist commentary flowed. They completely disappeared the thread to one new article with just a dozen comments posted, suggesting a certain desperation. We are at a point where anti-racism holds sway as never before across the Establishment. But it is also now losing its intimidatory power over the white masses.

The dissonance ought to grow quite naturally. But, unfortunately, another footballer - the England captain, no less - has transgressed against orthodoxy much more spectacularly than Suarez. That will certainly set back the prospects for undermining anti-racism in England. It is difficult, though, to see how the English public - not a stranger to contempt for authority - can be held in check by anti-racism forever.

GW,
I’m interested to know why you feel that John Terry’s transgression will be a “set back the prospects for undermining anti-racism in England”.

Your assessment of that incident seems to be at odds with how you view the Luis Suarez episode.

It’s also worth observing that Patrice Evra has some form in this area.

Very simply, Englander. To a normal bloke Suarez looks as though he has been stitched up, not least because there is no evidence beyond Evra’s word (which has twice been found wanting, as Harry notes).

But Terry’s phraseology was a little rich for most ordinaries, and he was caught on video ... the police are involved ... the liberal media are all geared up to go. It’s not helpful.

Alan Hansen, on the other hand ...

GW - Alan Hansen should be hung for crimes against Scottish football (I admit that’s a long list with many offenders on it) but his ‘SPECIAL’ moment from this game lives on in infamy.

Apparently at that game the Scottish fans had a wonderful banner:

“ALCOHOLISM VS COMMUNISM”

As for the Terry thing, should calling someone a ‘black bastard’ REALLY be a crime against the state? One thing I do admire about America is the robust ‘freedom of speech’ tradition.

It seems Terry was sining a different tune when England played Bulgaria.

But after England’s 3-0 win, Terry told Sky it was a shock to learn of it. He said: ‘You don’t expect that at all. It was a great spectacle for everyone to watch this evening. Let’s not let that spoil it.’

The footballing metaphor to ‘kick-off’ is very apt - it shouldn’t be long before it does.

The media whores are doing their best for the multi cult however I agree with GW’s assertion, the power to intimidate our folk is waning. That first expression of a people going into survival mode will be one hell of a sight. A nation’s collective consciousness maintains balance through opposing emotions: the fear of doing nothing is opposite to the fear of doing something. The ‘dynamic’ is about to change,

He said the word “black” in his own language to Patrice Evra, an African footballer

Are you saying he called him a nigger, or merely negro? And either one is a crime in Britain??!

And this Suarez isn’t even white himself.

And who is Alan Hansen, and what are his offenses?

The club noted that Suarez is “of a mixed race family background as his grandfather was black’’ and has been involved since the 2010 World Cup in a charitable project that uses sport to encourage solidarity among people of different backgrounds.

Suarez is said to have used the term ‘negrito’ several times towards Evra. Evra, it is claimed, directed the term ‘sudaca’ towards Suarez. So two overpaid idiots mouthed off on a football pitch - big deal!

Except we are in ultra-PC Britain were it is potentially a criminal offense to call some a black whatever etc.
