JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) -- A South African soccer referee pulled a gun and shot dead a coach who questioned one of his rulings, police said on Sunday.

[x0thedeadzone0x]

Wow, South America has 8 times the number of murders that US does? Or so the article says. o.O guess you shouldn't fuck with the South Africa coaches.

[epobirs]

ha you mean like the england-portugal Euro 2004 match?

the entire game was exciting

[Fatesealer]

Damn... people used to shout 'Kill the umpire!' at baseball games, but I guess when your ref is packing a .45, you tend to let the call on the field stand...

What the hell is the deal with soccer. I mean seriously between the riot, stampede, and now the ref's shooting people... and people say football is dangerous and violent.

...only when a play is challenged in the NFL, overturning the call on the field doesn't result in a slug to the temple...

[daphatty]

That's why I don't like soccer. Too violent.

8 times??? I could've sworn the US was #1 when it came to the number of murder's, just another thing Moore lied about, I suppose.

[Specter]

Never4Ever, I keep looking at your sig over and over.....did that actually happen? That is kind of funny, reminds me of Eurotrip!

[Ericnmel99]

I heard about that. Soccer is crazy man. People in south america, europe and i guess south africa take the sport waaaay to seriously.....btw what ref keeps a gun on him!??!?!

[Cracka]

i bet they dont undermine his authority again!

[MrBadExample]

Do you get a yellow or red card for this?

[johnnyoski]

If they get this pissed at soccer refs imagine how we feel towards NBA officiating ? NBA refs would need to start packing heat too.

[XboxMaster]

I'm not surprised as soccer is usually taken as a life or death matter in South America.

[snotknocker]

This makes me think of that movie "The Last Boyscout"

[Kaijufan]

:shock:
Thats just crazy.

[Dok Diamond]

That is crazy as hell

According to the article:
"South Africa has one of the world's highest murder rates with an alarming 47.4 murders per 100,000 people, or eight times the figure for the United States."
Which means, of course, that SA has the higher percentage rate of murders, but since the US has a far greater population, the US still has the highest total number of murders per year.
We're not as aggressive about it, there's just more of us to kill.

Yes that actually happened, that's that idiot John "Bradshaw" Layfield, who got laid-off by CNN for that stunt.

Moore doesn't necessarily lie, he just distorts words to make it appear as if he's saying something else. He loves to use terms like "perhaps" or "is it possible" to avoid actually coming out and making a statement directly, it keeps him from being able to be sued.
