    Like it or not this guy has made TFC fans look bad in a public forum. To not have TFC fans condemn him for hoping it was Argos fans who were slaughtered can make it appear that they are OK with it. Especially with all the public displays of anger directed at the Argos move to BMO.

    Condemnation gives the voice back to the good fans. Silence gives the only voice to the extremist.

    I agree. This can escalate if people don't speak up in order to stop this.

    I'll agree with Mulder. hahaha.

    I don't understand the whacked soccer culture of hate, fighting and intolerance. Obviously many TFC fans want to try and act tough and like fools similar to the Euro fans who just go around trying to cause shit. Racism is alive and well in this LAME sport.

    I laugh at soccer fans who want to start shit with football fans.

    So, by that logic Muslims should have to apologize for the actions of the shooter in Orlando. I know some groups already have but I always feel like it's ridiculous that they feel they need to. I know the majority of Muslims would never consider doing something as heinous as what happened in Orlando and I hold the shooter responsible for his actions, not the group he associated with.

    With that said, I apologize on behalf of TFC fans for @tfc114roadie extremely stupid and insensitive comments.

    In this TFC vs. Argos fans “debate” there is stupidity being thrown around on both sides of the fence by a minority of fans on each side. I really hope one day it will stop.

    not sure if apologizing on behalf of this ass is needed, or even wanted. Muslim communities, from what i've heard, haven't apologized for the shooter, but rather condemned his actions. They don't accept what he has done, just like they have condemned terrorist acts of ISIS. By condemning actions, one is saying this person does not represent me/us in any way.

    My apologies, let me try that again:

    Should Muslims have to condemn the actions of the shooter in Orlando. I know some groups already have but I always feel like it's ridiculous that they feel they need to. I know the majority of Muslims would never consider doing something as heinous as what happened in Orlando and I hold the shooter responsible for his actions, not the group he associated with.

    There is reason we call people extremisits because what they say or do is not of the norm. So, should others have to condemn obvious extreme behaviour?

    Again with that said, I condemn the extremely stupid and insensitive comments of @tfc114roadie.
