The U.S. Football League has passed a law banning discriminatory chants during games • Violators of the law are expected to be expelled from stadiums, heavy fines and even imprisonment


American Football yesterday (Friday) passed a law banning discriminatory calls during all football games.

The Board of Directors of the American Football Federation has made a decision to adopt a policy of zero tolerance for calls against LGBT people and once the law is officially passed, they will start punishing those who break the law.

Among the penalties expected for rioters will be a prolonged expulsion from the stadiums that can reach a 5-year expulsion, high fines and if necessary or a repeat of calls from a fan, can also lead to imprisonment.

Just last January, Mexico also made a similar decision after calls became more and more common at games in the country.
