I'm mot really surprised at this.  A good deal of the world treats soccer as a religion, so . . . People get stupid.

Brazilian ref Gabriel Murta is facing disciplinary action after losing the plot during a lower-league match this weekend

A Brazilian referee is facing disciplinary action after he reacted to a dispute with players by pulling a GUN.
 
Gabriel Murta was kicked and slapped by players from lower-league Amantes de Bola, while the manager invaded the pitch demanding a red card, it is claimed.
 
Murta, said to be a policeman by day, reacted by racing to the changing rooms and returning with a firearm.


Trouble: Murta is being spoken to by the league association and may face disciplinary action

Shocking footage captured by a spectator showed his linesman restraining Murta as he held the gun in his hand on the pitch.

The undocumented soccer plays have taken over all the local public fields.....every Saturday and Sunday, it's undocumented soccer, drinking, and fighting.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

That will make it easy for La Migra to round them up if Trump gets elected.
