If you jump, Balotelli dies(Se Saltelli Muore Balotelli) (18 Viewers)

We are talking him being being called negro di merda, and last night being addressed with "a nigger cant be italian". RACIST SCUM, é basta.
Wishing death on him or any player is stupid as shit crap that doesnt belong in footie either. Even more senseless that they are chanting about him when we arent facing him either, wtf is up with that.

Even if we disregard the whole racist or not talk, it is still downright idiotic to be singing that crap. Because in the end, it's always the club that has to pay (fines, stadium bans).
Now I read that Uefa are awaiting a report about our chants last night: just great!
Sing "chi non salta..." at every game for all I care, even if you're not facing Inter / Milan / Roma / ... I'll join in because it's fun & harmless.
Go ahead with "Che sera di questa Inter", it's also good fun.
...
But singing against Balotelli at games when he isn't there? Seriously, that's just making a fool of yourself.
Also, I don't recall our ultras singing Zlatan Zingaro when we weren't playing Inter (correct me if I'm wrong though).

They did?
I can vividly recall the first time they sang it because I was there: first game against Inter after our return to Serie A.
I also know we received some fine and there was a lot of talk about it in the media.
I myself never heard it again, except for our direct confrontations with Inter. But I can't say I really paid a lot of attention to it, so I'll take your word for it.
My point still stands though: don't do shit that gets your team in trouble!

Look, I never condoned calling him a "negro di merda". That is obviously wrong. But sorry, the original chant in which this thread was based on is not racist, especially when similar chants are said in other stadiums about a general base of supporters, especially Italian fans.
Refer back to swag's post regarding A Season with Verona to understand that much of this is just banter, and considering this chant doesn't call him a nigger, I don't have a problem with it.
If that makes me a racist, so be it. It's one thing to label someone a racist when they condone racist chants, but in this case, with bianconero labeling us all racists, he's going overboard. Accusers are sometimes as idiotic as the offenders.

so, Neapolitans can be slammed in Northern stadia, the same goes for Sicilians (anyone remember WC 1990, where a sign was posted in one of the Northern stadiums , referring to Scillaci "not too bad for a dirty Sicilian"), the Roma sign a few years ago slamming Lazio and Livorno (same first letter, same ovens), signs slamming the police (ACAB)....but if you pick on a black man in any way, its racist
this reminds me waaaay too much of America
