Last week, during a Euro 2020 qualifier England players were subjected to monkey chants and Nazi salutes by Bulgaria fans.

Now, football federation president Gabriele Gravina has given details of "a passive radar device that uses directional microphones to determine the source of the noise".

He said the advanced listening device can "immediately determine who is making a racist chant" and can distinguish a single voice.

The tools of the war on terror continue to devolve into tools of the war on the public.

I had always heard that the English soccer fans were the hooligans.

I thought the U.S. was the only country filled with racists?
