That's not really the aspect being compared. The US has an extremely wild incareration rate, comparable to the worst period in the evil empire's history (notice, no scare quotes).

So, are americans just less moral, or is there a systemic issue, the mere existence of which is also evil?

BECAUSE WE DON'T KILL OUR CRIMINALS.....
GET A CLUE.

I'm not deaf lol. But you need to understand that you can compare different aspects of a thing, in separation. You can say the incarceration rate in the USA is crazy, while acknowledging that being a prisoner in the USA isn't as bad as being a prisoner under Stalin. Do you concede this?

I will concede Americans would not be in prison if they stopped committing crimes.
I will also concede that a small portion of Americans are unjustly imprisoned.
But I won't concede that a country that kills its prisoners is somehow more just than America...

Ok... Let's just stop here.

Why do people go to prison other than committing crimes. Other than a few dirty cops and corrupt judges like Juan Merchan, Tanya Chutkan, Lewis Kaplan and Arthur Engoron...
