So it would appear that in Scotland, "the best wee country in the world" its ok to racially abuse and attack another person as long as the person being persecuted is either Irish or Catholic. Heaven forbid that they are both.
Sign this petition if like me you are disgusted by the fact that John Wilson, the Hearts supporting thug was found not proven in the case that his assault of Neil Lennon was racially motivated.
I am currently compiling the personal accounts of harassment submitted through the petition comments to prepare a formal submission for the Scottish Football Association. These testimonies are being organized for a meeting with legal counsel to discuss the current definitions of racial motivation in Scottish law. Expect a full report on the outcome of this consultation once the documentation is finalized.
