Report: French Soccer Institutes Secret Racial Quota

The French won their last World Cup with a multi-racial team representing the full spectrum of the nation’s growing diversity. And now that it’s nearly 13 years later, let’s just allegedly make sure they never do that again and ensure that we anger our fastest-growing slice of the French population by instituting a racist policy capping the percentage of players of non-European descent at 30% in the nation’s sponsored soccer academies and centers.

The plan, presented in November 2010, involves limiting the number of youngsters from black and Meghrebi African origin entering the selection process from training centres and academies as early as 12 and 13 years of age.

The reported plan is racist, but this is France. It doesn’t stop with mere racism. Recall what they do with meats: not only do they kill the animal, but they season it, wrap it in another animal, and then feed this to another animal before killing that animal and then making sausage of it.

They won’t stop at just making a racist policy. No, they’re going to make an elaborately racist policy with accompanying alleged quotes leaked in the media that in the United States would get someone fired in seconds, and further embarrass an already humiliated French soccer establishment recovering from 2010’s disastrous World Cup flameout.

The sources added that Blanc cited the current would football champions Spain, reportedly saying: “The Spanish, they say ‘we don’t have a problem. We have no blacks’”.

The official response has been that this is a misunderstanding about players with dual-nationality status. Laurent Blanc has denounced the report as “a lie,” and he should. When you’re caught openly crafting policies that would gradually restrict the numbers of some of France’s most passionate soccer prospects’ admissions into the national academies based on race, you will lie because if it’s true that means makes you are a horrendous bigot.

Not that Blanc’s opinions are even considered discriminatory in France, a nation that is to multiculturalism what the United States is to fighting obesity. One in seven French citizens openly admit they are racist, and France’s Interior Minister last year remarked in public that one Arab was fine, but “when there are a lot of them...there are problems.”
