Yeah I guess, I remember during the London Olympics that they installed rocket launchers or whatever on top of the buildings, that was even worse.

I just can't imagine a situation where having a sniper on the roof of a football stadium would be useful. When would they actually shoot anyone? If An Important German is in danger, there are too many people around to actually shoot.

If An Important German is in danger, there are too many people around to actually shoot. If it came down to it jyrka and you were in the way of stopping an assassin trying to kill a head of state you would eat the bullet and be an unfortunate casualty of a terrorist attack. Also let's post football pics because this discussion is a bummer and totally off topic.

Balotelli was born in Italy, but as the son of immigrants and only got his Italian citizenship when he got 18 years old. So I guess in the eyes of dumb racists, he might very well be an "immigrato".

Not that it would make a difference if he was, mind. as an alpha male I posted:What comments were these, please? I dont' know which exact one that he's referring to, but all of the standard idiotic mumblings about the French players being from Africa were amplified around the time of the final. I don't remember it being just Italians saying it though.
