Argentina...beautiful country...
Insanity is absolute...
Fans of a Colombian football team stole a flag from one of the minor factions of an entire argentine "hooligan firm".
Context: Football Hooliganism in Argentina is divided as criminal organizations are divided in other countries. The minor factions are the "street soldiers" in charge of getting money from everything around the stadiums (parking, merchandising, food, etc). Then you have the "muscle" which are the ones in charge of showing force both in numbers and violence even for political parties when they pay for it and then you have the "upper classes". Mostly men wearing suits, neckties, etc. The ones getting the previous ones out of jail or capable of lowering their time in jail shall they go there. People with A LOT of power, connections and sometimes direct links with the people running the country. And because of what colombians did all branches and factions (including the biggest ones) started a raid around the Capital City (Buenos Aires) hunting colombians until someone decides to speak and whistle where this "iconic" flag is.
There has been several ambushes at train stations, colombian gathering spots and even around border crossings to prevent the flag to be taken out of the country. They´ve been able to stop buses full of tourists from different nationalities and make people descend in order to check luggage and baggage.
A lot of people stabbed during ambushes, a lot of tortures and kidnappings as well. All against whoever has a colombian accent.
But just imagine if you were visiting my country with your family. Just having a peaceful time to see and experience things in peace as it should be and out of the blue all these beasts stop the train or the bus you are travelling in to open your bags and check all your stuff "just in case".
I honestly have no idea where the fuck our police or authorities are when these people decide to take control of everything. It sickens me.
To say we are 3rd world is to be gentle. We are 8th world.
