Offensive fruit


"I don't know who threw the banana but I want to thank him. It gave me the energy to put two more crosses in for our goals."- Dani Alves. This was a quote from Dani after the Barcelona game at Estadio El Madrigal. The photos in these links( #saynotoracism #saynotoracism) are photos taken after the soccer game with the caption "#saynotoracism" on Instagram by his girlfriend and a fan (fan=blue, girlfriend=purple). This offensive remark made by a "fan" was called a "helpful" jester  because it so called helped him with the winning goal in the end. I do not think that is what they should have said. By calling it "helpful" they are basically  encouraging the man who through the offensive fruit at the brazilian player. Should the player be more offended then he was?
