I think in Italy you have bigger problems regarding sexual assault than a bit of silly banter

Like for example your legal system, that sees rich people appeal their conviction repeatedly, never serve any prison time and then wait for the statute of limitations to run out

Doesn't seem to that well informed about his country does he


He seems to know about as much as Arsene Nose

How Italy would handle banter comments on a football forum?

In Italian


What consequences do you want there to be?

How would Italy enforce said consequences over the internet?

Who is "Italy" in this instance? Your government monitoring football forums?

It's a ridiculous notion.

Your comment is ridiculous. I took it to mean more as what Italian moderators would do, not what a government would do. With the economy in the state it is, they have much better things to do.

That happens in every country. Yes, there is corruption here, there is crime, but it is overstated. The North of Italy is a lovely place. I see no difference between it and Germany


No, it doesn't happen in every country

Did Jimmy Saville see punishment? Did Nigel Farage face punishment? Will Boris Johnson face punishment?

If they get convicted they will serve punishment

Not like in Italy
