Europeans have a superiority complex when it comes to accepting others. But here in chicago, I have been harassed by both blacks, and whites, and brown(?) too. I am white but fully mexican. The neighborhoods are fully segregated for colors too. Some neighborhoods it's not safe to enter because the blacks are gangbangers or the whites are pretty supremist not wanting blacks or brown people to enter their neighborhood.
Anyways, in short Europeans=most racist people you can every come cross than oddly enough mexicans. |

support teh statement | Well....well.....ok Ive got nothing. The ing western European nations are the way the US should be. In italy(Rome mind you) I saw the gay flag next to the Italian one and the Eu flag. All were equal and this was a gov building. Here if that happened you'd have public officials condeming it and religious groups saying all those involved would be going to hell for this.
But yeah Western European nations and scandinavia are much more tolerant than Eastern nations. But I love the west and they are the ideal ways the US gov should be running things other than the high taxes. |

easy
the fact that racism in football events in europe is commonplace and accepted is more than indictive that europeans are more intolerant than americans.
in the US, you NEVER hear about rowdy racist crowds at NFL, baseball, basketball and hockey events...its in fact ludicrous to even think people would throw bananas onto a football field or basketball court |

I think its obvious that since racism is more accepted in europe, that would make them more tolerant. Right? tolerant of racism... ugh
:wtf: |

| Crowds in the EU are just more rowdy. The racisim is mainly an attempt to put off people. (though obviously they are, but I mean in US you don't get so agressive in gernal at games) |
