I blame Sarah Palin for this culture of hate and intolerance

I mean, who else could have caused it?

BRUSSELS — The Belgian top-flight encounter between Germinal Beerschot and Lierse on Friday was halted by the referee after Lierse goalkeeper Eiji Kawashima was taunted with chants about the Fukushima disaster.

Lierse had gone a goal up when visiting Beerschot fans threw a projectile in the direction of Japanese international 'keeper Kawashima before insulting him with chants of "Kawashima-Fukushima! Kawashima-Fukushima!" the Belga agency reported.

Following protests by Kawashima, the referee decided to bring play to a halt for several minutes until order was restored.

The match ended in a 1-1 draw, but Kawashima, 28, left the pitch at full-time in tears, and spoke of his anger at the chants.
Maybe Rick Perry?  Couldn't be a case of bad mannered Euro-idiots.  I mean, they're all like Einstein crossed with Shakespeare, right?

Can every Progressive that ever said we should "be more like Europe" please shut up and sit down in the back of the room?  Grown-ups are talking.

Surprised the "fans" weren't thrown out of the venue.

Disappointed, too.

I don't get the Euro-fawning by the left either. Whenever someone starts a sentence with "In Europe they..." I invariably know I'm talking to a liberal, and what is about to follow is statist BS.

Belgium is currently famous for two things chocolates and pedophiles.
