Wilfried Zaha subjected to vile racist abuse on Instagram ahead of Crystal Palace's game with Aston Villa as "fan" calls him a 'black c***', sends him pictures of Klu Klux Klan and threatens to come to his house if he scores

Extract(s):

• Wilfried Zaha tweeted that he had received the abuse and showed screenshots
• The fan threatened to come to the Crystal Palace star's house if he scored
• The Ivory Coast international was also sent pictures of hate group Klu Klux Klan
• Palace have responded with a Twitter statement condemning the vile abuse
• It comes a day after Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham also received similar abuse

This is the filth from the gutter scum [who posted it to Zaha]- online Mail-online - in public domain.

THIS IS WHY WE MUST FIGHT FIGHT AND FIGHT AGAIN TO LET THE SCUM KNOW WE ARE NOT HAVING IT!
Shocking but real.

Dear me
Hopefully the idiot responsible can be traced.

But White Lives Matter too and all that bull.
Absolutely vile behaviour and the perfect example of why we should be doing all we can to change the political landscape from the divisionist one that we have.

Disgusting.
I don't know much about the social media platforms but it must be easy to trace someone who has an account or am I wrong ?

Very easy.

Bloke on the radio said the coppers are on the case.
Whoever it is deluded to call themselves a football "fan".

 

[TeaCider]

He'll be convicted.

Hope Zaha can equalise.

West Midlands Police have arrested a 12 year old boy:


West Midlands Police - #StayAlert

@WMPolice

#ARRESTED| We were alerted to a series of racist messages sent to a footballer today and after looking into them and conducting checks, we have arrested a boy. The 12-year-old from #Solihull has been taken to custody. Thanks to everyone who raised it. Racism won't be tolerated.

 

[TeaCider]

12 and sending vile messages like that.
Jesus.

 

[Chappy112]

It's ****ed up that anyone would send those types of messages, but a 12 year old? Jesus Christ. I don't think I knew who the KKK were when I was 12.

I've seen messages that my mates kids get sent from their friends on social media and it is unreal what kids will say to each other online. This generation is the first one that have completely grown up online, they think they can say whatever they want and it have no repercussions.

 

[Michael_Vronsky]

A 12 year old boy?!!! Jesus Christ, at that age I was scared of the dark! Saddened and sickened that young minds that should be open and free and searching for knowledge, are polluted like this. Sometimes the world is just a disgusting place....

 

[HarryVegas]

A sickening indictment on us as a society that there are children growing up in environments where that kind of thinking is normal, even encouraged. Because it's not just one 12 year old, is it. We don't have to look far to see (so-called) adults who routinely post such stuff on internet forums. They have kids and this is where we end up.

Easy peasy. Police will already have his address.

Punishment should be been lined up against a wall with buttocks showing and have Mr Zaha and some friends take a few pot shots at him and then force the cretin to clean their boots with his tongue.

 

[Holgatewall]

12 years old.

Whats the world coming to.

 

[TeessideCleveland]

Terrible

 

[El Guapo]

Disgusting and disgraceful. Words fail me.

Given his goal scoring record this season, that might take a while to be an effective punishment.

It appalling, obviously, but I also think symptomatic of the rise of far-right politics and the almost normalisation of racism.

It will change, but its hard seeing things like this at the moment.

And that is just as bad by making out racism only goes 1 way.

I do not condone the action of the 12 year old but please don't make that only 1 sided racism exists.
