GAYLES.TV.- He Spanish Observatory against LGBTFOBIA has denounced FC Barcelona for the homophobic insults of "Christian maricón"Which occurred in the minute of silence dedicated to Johan Cruyff during the classic of last Saturday.
Paco Ramírez, Director of the Observatory has stated that "it is incomprehensible that there is a double standard to measure intolerance in sport, and that action should be taken forcefully and unusually rapid in cases of racism or xenophobia, but continued ignorance that the greatest intolerance in football at the moment it's homophobia and turning a blind eye or looking the other way doing nothing. "
The complaint lodged with the State Commission against Violence, Racism, Xenophobia and Intolerance in Sport, recalls that these acts are punishable by the Law of Sport (Law 19 / 2007) and demands an exemplary sanction that ends with the continued presence of the homophobia in football.
Cristiano Ronaldo He has been the subject of constant rumors about his sexual orientation for months and is constantly insulted in the field. It is not an isolated case, there are many players or referees who are denigrated by a crowd that seems that when they get together they lose their forms and education. Much work remains to be done on the football fields to eradicate disrespect; it seems to be a tolerable attitude, when it should be punished.
The clubs make timid campaigns, in fact FC Barcelona signed a specific protocol against homophobia that manifested its willingness to fight against these attitudes. But something is not going well when we still do not have a reference of gay footballer throughout the Spanish league. Let's see who will be the brave one who throws the first stone.
