    Default Dirty racist douchebag.

    I debated long and hard about posting this.

    I did not post when I left the top of 109 due to the racism and homophobic remarks that I heard there, but I am now tired of it, and after my experience tonight in 112 I am speaking up.

    I came really close to becoming violent towards the end of the match tonight. I am not a violent guy. My last 'fight' was in 1998, grade 10, when I just sat on a guy who attacked me until he calmed down.

    Tonight though, there was a guy in about the 12th row of 112, fourth seat from the railing, who was repeatedly calling Frings a ____ German Nazi ____ ____. Fill in the blanks as you will, this guy did often enough with foul adjectives.

    I directed many glares at him, while I thought about charging up the rows to 'teach him a lesson', for lack of a better phrase. Luckily (perhaps for us both), he left very quickly after the whistle, while I was wrapping up my flag. I really wanted to confront him.

    If any anyone knows who this dirty racist douchebag was, please ask him to stow that shit for future games. His neighbour's said his usual seat is a few rows behind them and I cannot say for sure that he was in the 12th row tonight as I was in a randomly chosen row myself. I hesitate to describe him because I do not want to be misconstrued as a racist myself. I know others noticed him and were appalled as well.

    I guess my plea here is for people to stand up to this kind of behaviour. Those nearest to him simpathized with me after the game, but only grinned at him while he was at it during the game.

    What can we do? I really don't want to create a ruckus during or after the game, but I have had it with this shit.

    Sorry for personalizing this, but I have uncles who were born because my grandmother was raped in Russian concentration camps during WWII. Not all Germans are Nazi and I have never heard that Frings was one. But I swear, racism in the stands must stop or this shit will get ugly.

    What can we do?

    Has that ever been done at BMO? With any success?

    'hey, that guy is a racist!'

    'yes sir, we'll kick him out now.'

    No offense, it just does't seem that easy.

    Plus, even if they kick him out, will they ban him? Probably not as he is likely a season ticket holder (i have seen him many times before) and then a) he is back and b) I have to be near him again?

    Skeptical...

    I'd think they'd ban him. I remember the league said they would ban anyone spewing racism in the stands when Columbus was in the hot seat a few seasons ago.

    Its true, what you should have done is said he swore. MLS takes swearing very seriously.

    Just terrible. Unacceptable.

    That's ridiculous.

    People say some pretty stupid things sometimes.

    That guy should not be in 112.

    We can't allow that sort of crap to take place.

    Let's all vow to report this kind of behaviour in the future.

    Also - why is he talking shit about our own players from 112? I mean what he actually said is pretty rough, and if it was about an opposition player it'd be bad enough, but why is someone in a supporters section yelling at a Toronto player?

    Edit: also I'm not trying to say saying that stuff to the opposition would be okay, just that I can think of at least two reasons to toss him from 112.

    some douchers were mocking Frings from the top of 114 as well. I've never seen them before and they were trying to be Hans and Franz....just pathetic.

    Had I heard that, it would have miffed me as well. Yeah, I think everyone here agrees that we need to stamp this kind of nonsense out of 112 altogether. You can be rowdy, but you have to have some civility FFS!!!

    SAY NO TO RACISM AND BIGOTRY!

    Yagbod, the best thing to do is to report it. If security does nothing about it, you can follow up with FO because they do take that very seriously.

    Is this story for real?

    Pal, you need to be in touch with the powers that be about this where they can collect your account and the accounts of others in your area that saw/heard this.

    Be relentless and encourage (next game) all of those near you to come forward and speak with the right people who can ban this guy permanently. He doesn’t just need to be banned, he needs to be charged also.

    Get on this today, contact BMO security without haste. The longer you let this wait, the more likely it is he’ll be seen/heard doing this again.

    Make it your mission today. One of the RPB cronies in here should be able to set you up with head office. Which one of you can help this guy?

    Speak up.

    wow - i didnt hear a thing and i spent part o fthe game midway in 112.

    I can safely say that most here dont want someone like that in 112. As much as we dont own the section, things that happen there are a reflection on us.

    If this ever happens again just let security know. They take these sorts of things pretty serious

    I've heard racist things at BMO before. One time this guy was saying terrible things about a certain religious group.. eventually everyone in the entire section just started booing him and yelling until he just got up and left the game. It was a proud moment!

    We are fortunate to have a player of Frings' calibre in TFC colors. These types of remarks are really disgraceful, especially from our own alleged supporters. I agree with Boris. If it happens again, report the douchebag to security.

    You hear racist shit all the time in 112. Can't tell you how many times I've heard "spic" "polack", "ginger"(that ones not really racist) and now this nazi stuff. I'm sure people can play the "I'm german so I can make that joke" or "My friends are polish so I'm just ribbing them" - but when you're shouting it out like a moron for everyone to hear in 112, people don't take it as a friendly jab or an inside joke, they just think you're being as ass.

    Would love to see it stop at BMO and in 112 specificially.

    Speak up. Let security know. If they hear it, calling a German player a Nazi seems like a definite ban by MLS standards.

    I've had "a go" at players when frustrated but that's ridiculous.
