Whilst I'm totally against racism, I think they are making too much of a fuss on this. I live with 3 spanish people, who don't really see the problem. Its no different to making fun of Alonso for having bushy eyebrows etc, its just they doing it on colour of his skin. Whats the difference in making fun of someone for having bushy eyebrows or dark skin? From my understanding, in Spain they have a more relaxed attitude to the line between banter and racism, and its not really seen as racist, or no more racist than making fun of someones eyebrows. And I'm inclined at agree, I think society (in UK anyway), is too focussed on race.
