Britons see US as vulgar empire builder

Vulgar! HaHa!

At least they don't see us as the "Evil Empire".

Yahh right, the english premier league has had to run anti-racism campaigns all through the 1990's and still to this day just to keep it under control.

"In August of 1993 the Commission for Racial Equality (CRE), and the Professional Footballers Association (PFA), along with the Football Trust launched the 'Lets Kick Racism Out of Football' campaign."

"(1995) 'Kick Racism Out of Football' campaign was being criticized as being largely superficial and failed to accomplish tangible results. Slow progress in terms of practical measures has been due to the conservative attitudes of clubs and the campaign has perhaps faltered in that respect."

"According to the 2001 FA Premier League National Fan Survey (SNCCFR, 2001a) Black British or British Asian fans comprise only 0.8% of the total sample of active top level fans (compared to 0.7% in 1997) way below the figures for the population at large. Black players probably account for between 13-15% of professional footballers nationwide. Even in areas of the country with large ethnic minority populations match attendance from among these groups is very low. 27% of FA Premier League fans polled in 2001 reported witnessing some racism aimed at players at matches, with 7% identifying racism against spectators."

"Minority ethnic workers are considerable under-represented in the administrative departments of professional football clubs. Only two minority ethnic employees, nationally, hold what one might describe as a senior administrative post at any of these 88 professional clubs.
