Glad you brought this up. I myself am wondering why you lost see it fit to say something about us everyday without provocation when we aren't considered worthy rivals?
Now let me look into this article.

So the FA has decided to charge Suarez over an alleged racial comment and Suarez is still pleading "not guilty". If indeed he did use the term, "Negrito", as alleged by Evra, then he is guilty regardless of how acceptable it is in South America. This is after all England, where anti-racism sentiments are strong. Forget the allegations (I like how often this word is used a lot in this case) that his manc buddies call him the same name. It's a case of "only my friends can call me that". It is true however that the term, "Negrito" is indeed a term of endearment in South America.
However Suarez should be sensitive to the fact that those from other continents may take offence to it. If he did utter the word, I think it was more out of naivety than hostility but should be fined nonetheless for when in someone else's house, we should respect their rules. I can understand him not wanting to please guilty though especially if he didn't mean it as an insult. It's what I would do and if anyone here tells me they'll plead guilty to a crime they didn't intend to commit, then you're a bigger man than me. This is all assuming the allegations turn out to be true.
Wonder what the outcome of Terry's case will be now given that there is alleged (here's that word again) video evidence of him uttering a racist word.
To anyone who thinks these cases are that straightforward, not bothering to do research of reading before commenting, it's why there are people with different intelligence levels around.
