fuck all of 'em, seriously. impiety obviously does not justify a death sentence. let the law deal with that irreverent dirtbag. those ultras sound like trump supporters, where everyone who dares to disrespect their idol receives death threats...
Comparing them to Trump supporters would be very flattering.
Ultra groups in Argentina are essentially criminal organizations involved in all sorts of drug trafficking, murders, mobbing, rape, corruption, etc...
You know how hooligans in Europe meet up to have fist fights? Well, in Argentina, they sometimes take it to the next level and have battles with knives and guns. People are killed every year, and prisons are full of members of these groups. Going to prison killing someone that has offended your ultra group or your football club is considered an honor for these idiots. Avenging Maradona's honor after someone took a picture of his corpse will be some sort of spiritual mission for them, as many people literally worship him as if he was some sort of deity.
Keep in mind that those groups are full of junkies, thugs and violent criminals with no purpose in life other than to belong to their clan of hooligans and fanatically support their team. Also, their leaders have a very strong political influence, with several of them being member or collaborators of the country's main political parties.
The guy who took that picture has a very grim future ahead of him. It's almost as if he had taken a pic of El Chapo Guzmán's dead body... you know the cartel would have him dead in no time. Well,
La Doce is obviously nowhere near as powerful as the Sinaloa cartel and probably won't be able to get to him while he's under police custody, but they do have the resources to kill him if he's left without survailance. The guy will probably be forced to leave the country, and even then he might never be safe.
