I think he's smart enough to accept deals with clubs so he can provide his family with money than not accepting and putting his family in a poor situation.

Actually I`m not that sure that most people think that the Zoro case is worse!
Zoro`s case was just racist (not connected to anything but racist) and it was the crowd that did that...
Di Canio`s case is a lot more than just racism it is connected to the SS to the Nazis who we all know who they were and what they have done. Also it was the player and not the crowd that did that and that is a lot more severe since the player should set an example
The two cases deserve punishment there is no doubt about it but Di Canio`s doing was much severe

Shaka Hislop has hit out at his former team-mate Paolo di Canio after the Italian was fined for showing a fascist salute while playing for Lazio.
Hislop said their friendship was over after Di Canio made the gesture in a game at Livorno and has not apologised.
Hislop said: "Paolo never impressed me as that kind of person when he was here at West Ham.
"When it is someone you thought was a friend it has a longer-lasting effect. I am very disappointed by it."
Di Canio was suspended for one match and fined for aiming the salute at supporters, which he insists has "nothing to do with political ideologies."
"I will always salute that way because it gives me a sense of belonging to my people," he said recently.
But Hislop is disgusted by Di Canio's explanation for his straight-armed salute.
He said: "He got on well with my wife and my kids and to see him making headlines for his actions disappoints me greatly because of what those gestures mean and the wider effect of it.
"Paolo was certainly someone I considered a friend who I liked a lot, so I am very disappointed."
Di Canio was backed by Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi, who believes the 37-year-old striker is simply misunderstood.
He said: "Di Canio is an exhibitionist. His salute didn't have any significance. He's a good lad."

So Hislop is pulling out that, oh so trendy, racism card. Would have been good if he had something to back up this claim. Interestingly though he says di Canio got along well with him and his wife. So Hislop now pay attention - facism is not a synonyme for racism although they seem to usually go hand in hand.
Within few years all of us can be labeled as racists with this current level of labeling.

Blatter said that it is time to punish racist behaviour more severly and it will be in the shpae of deducating points or even move them to the next league
and he commented that on the Di Canio`s case
so I guess Lazio will lose some gained points and if Di Canio contiunues with it they might find themselves in Serie B
I personally disagree with that since it is a player and not the whole team so I think a one year ban (for the player) and then if he continue doing that they should give him a ban of two or more years
About the racism of the fans I think that Blatter`s system would work perfectly
