monkeyleg: Yet another go at Black people. I am just sick of this nonsense, even in 2012 we still have rubbish like this going on. We as a race need to get our act together and understand there is strength in number

The cartoon was published after their game with England,the newspaper has apologized. But to be honest wit ourselves, racism is multifaceted ,we blacks themselves abuse one another in one way or the other that sends wrong signals to the outside world,and wen they abuse us,we come out to condemn it while we are not helping ourselves either. We must change our thinking about race,ethnic believe and our culture in other to earn respect from outside.

Opps that's harsh

racism is bad but he would have developed a thick skin in dealing with stuffs like that. He grew up in Europe, so he would have experienced worse racist taunt. I remember there was a BBC documentary with regards to racism in Poland and Ukraine. Some black dutch players were even booed during a training session in preparation for a match. He just as to keep his head up and shut up the ignorant racist mutherf*ckers by sinking Spain tonight.

maclatunji: That his second goal against Germany is perhaps the most clinical piece of finishing I have seen in a very long time.

That is one reason they want to kill his spirit before the match against Spain despite the fact that he's playing in the Italian squad. They wanted such goal scored by one of the whites.
I want him to play with anger today and shock them the more and after this tourney, he should sue that newspaper for libel.

hi

edicolove:

Racism is not limited to whites. Anyone can be a racist. Trying to make racism a white thing I think is not right and won't end it. It is a human problem, not a white problem. The kind of "racism" you find here on NL is far terrible. The difference is that we have the same skin colour so we call it tribalism instead. But the same principle of "am more superior to you" applies.

Stop being an "ignorant Apologist"!
There is a wide difference between "Tribalism" and "Racism"....even the two words are "self-descriptive" enough!

---When "discrimination" is based on your RACE, especially your SKIN COLOR....====> RACISM
---When "discrimination" is based on your TRIBE.....===> TRIBALISM
The "key point" here, is to look out for "the reason" for the discrimination!

You cant be "racist" to one of your own race, going by the definition of racism itself.....it is "race" for gawd sake!

BTW: I dont think you've ever lived abroad before?
When you have lived abroad (as a "black/brown skinned person) on a permanent basis for like two or three years, (not short holidays, mind you)
Then come back here and lets see if you will still be making excuses for a "shameful disposition" towards another human being.

Like "Olodostein" puts it, a white person who is "racist", will always be racist, irrespective of whether you put your head on a platter for him!

If you doubt me, GO AND ASK OBAMA.....of the "He dont look like us, he dont speak like us, he dont even smell like us" fame!

Lastpage!

But if we really look at his closely.....

^^^^^Pirlo is another Italian player that has played well in this tournament.

Question: Can they (the Newspaper) or would they have drawn Pirlo as "an Ape" clinging to Big Ben, to show that he dominated England or whatever other excuses that can be manufactured for this inexcusable cartoon?

Any intelligent cartoonist would be "sensitive" to the fact that "being black" and being portrayed as a "savage Ape" in the same breath IS BAD TASTE and UNREFINED!

Are you sure?

Balotelli deserves more credit than what he gets of recent.he is jst frustrated,i dnt blame him at all 4 the king kong pose!

well its obvious that despite his impressive track record, italian name and his preference for european women the europeans still have no respect for him , i dont really have much sympathy for some of these black footballers as they love identifying with europeans more than their own people, its only when they get the nigger wake up call that you see them remembering that they are black. Italians are very racist people and unlike the english cant be bothered to hide it so i guess he's going to have to get used to their abuse.

This is really pissing me off, and racism in football is overlooked because it seems football fans are insensitive. I'm sorry whether or not football is a barbaric sport there should be no room for racism in a popular sport, millions of children are emulating thse football players. they get paid millions and millions of pounds, they should not allow racism for one minute in their careers.

People were debating over John Terry's comments, what the hell are you debating? You call someone a black cunt? How racist can you get??

I think they need to set up an independent association for ethnic minorities within football and other sports, one with the authority to boycott players and games, they need to take aggressive action with this. If the media can continue with these remarks (and this is nothing compared to the rubbish I've seen in British tabloids) then it means we are definitely not working hard enough to stamp out racism.

The same goes for racism and sexism in science, this is the 21st century and quite frankly i'm just tired. I am a black woman, why should that be a bad thing? I'm tired of spending every single moment defending myself and my position in life. It's tiring.

Oh no, it's never too late to get a lecture from a football aficionado.

so the guy is ghanian? why isnt he playing for ghana. . . the black stars lost out on one of the best players in the world meeehn... . . . .

The problem with humans is there is never a balance. I have seen the cartton and don't see anything racist there. King kong is a dominating force, not a shameful representation. I can understand some people might be sensitive because of their environment but I think we might find ourselves taking some things too far. As much as racism exist, we must not get into paranoia. I don't think the Italian media after such a match would want to throw something racist at Balotelli. He was a hero that night. I just think the world in an attempt to leave one exreme is sliding into another extreme.

king kong is a gorrila,and a general description of africans by the western press has been any specie of the monkey race i.e baboon,monkey, gorilla,chimpanzee,so when a certain black player who has been told to his face that no black man is ever an italian,who has been described as the dark sin of the italian team gets depicted as a gorilla,put things together and see where its going to

He was adopted by an Italian family(Balloteli) during his infancy. So he's a bonafide Italian and can not play for Ghana

He's ghanian by ethnicity? doesnt that count? He probably didnt want to. and see now the italians are disrespecting him.
