After a record holder Milorad Cavic collected gold for the 50-meter butterfly on Wednesday and then wore a T-shirt proclaiming "Kosovo is Serbia" at a medal presentation ceremony, he was suspended from further participation in individual events at the European swimming championships. The Serbian swimming federation was also fined $10,800.
Milorad said "I didn't do it to provoke anger, I didn't do it to provoke violence. The country is torn apart and ... my goal was just to uplift them."
Was the decision right - you be the judge.
Warning, maybe... definitely a fine $...
Alternate slogans that would have worked:
Free Tibet
Independent Kosovo
Kosovo is not Serbia any more
Free Willy
No nukes
