While I condemn their disgusting behavior 3 months seems like overkill.
While it's not excusable behavior, I'm glad being an asshole isn't illegal in the US. Jail time for mocking someone is totally absurd.
Hey, Brits have been arrested for just trolling on the internet. That kind of stuff is serious business in the UK.Undoubtedly, they would not have received jail time in England.

Everyone is racist against gypsies over there.
I can remember being drunk in Hiedleburg watching fireworks. I looked down and this gypsy girl had her hand in my pocket, trying to get my wallet out.
I said, "what are you? a ****ing cliche?"
I thought that was very funny at the time.
Yeh agreed and honestly there is no evidence its racially motivated. I have seen fellow football fans "humiliate" and mock people for years especially after a few drinks.
Oh you have, have you? So have the rest of us which is precisely why jail time is necessary.
As stated above you can't just put people in prison for acting like tossers. Now if they have sought these women out, harassed them and racially abused them it would be a different story but that isn't what happened.
They mocked a group of poor women who happened to be Roma. That is illegal in Spain. It is a hate crime here. That the English and Americans tolerate this is up to them.
But they didn't go looking for them. The women approached them, they were heavily intoxicated and acted like pricks but it wasn't race related. As for it being illegal in Spain I don't remember the Spanish authorities locking up the thousands of fans who made monkey noises at England players when we played you a few years back. Nor do I remember them locking up the Spanish fan at the F1 who wore black face and mocked Lewis Hamilton.....
