Default Re: Britain complains to Spain for 'racist' abuse against Hamilton

Do you remember when Fernando Alonso was called a miserable Spaniard? The Spanish media was not so loud.
Do you remember when (i don't remember if it was in a World Cup or European Championship) the English media said that all the spanish had moustache? (and it was not Carnaval). Spanish media took it as a joke (¿?).Many Spanish girls bought fake moustaches to go to the matches. We did not accuse anybody of being racist. Where is the sense of humour?
people dressed up as blacks in Carnival and lots of booooos is not a big deal. Hamilton is the target of pointing fingers because he's Hamilton not because he's black.
I think that type of media is damaging highly the image of Spain abroad. We are not more racist than any country in Europe, or the people who accuse us or even the people that support those accusing us.
It's really sad...
