Anyone who saw Bryant Gumbel's shocking report last year about the racism that's displayed in soccer games throughout Europe realizes that, despite all of our problems, we have nowhere near the racism that exists in other parts of the world.
Whole sections of stadiums in England, France, Spain, Germany, and Italy are comprised of racist fans that scream epithets and racist chants throughout the games, and black players are regularly pelted with bananas. As Gumbel said, such behavior would be unthinkable in the US.
