Boo And Go Home

Nationalism trumps crudity:
Any football match in France before which the country's national anthem is booed will now be "immediately stopped", French Sports Minister Roselyne Bachelot said Wednesday after meeting with President Nicolas Sarkozy.
They sure as hell better do exactly that or turn in their "I'm a politician" badge. Don't cave to the utterly expected riot and chair-tossing gala that such a cancellation will generate, and at the next game, just as soon as some displaced Neanderthal starts booing, he'll get clocked by fans who paid to actually see the game.

No big deal, it's usually the booers that start the riot at the end of the game anyway. Being the crude bottom-crawlers that they are, the rest of us won't miss them at all when they get singled out and tossed.
