| You know what I love about the United States, we stick our scandals out on the cloth line for everyone to see. We let the world know we screwed up, and we allow all the details to be known. The same cannot be said for your China.
Do you want to know why no one knows the actual body count from Tianemen Square? It's because the Chinese government swept those figures, along with the bodies, under the rug to make China look better. You say around a hundred died while other media outlets say hundreds and even thousands.
You talk about prison scandals. I am guessing you are referring to Abu Ghraib. I will bet you my life that those soldiers were not under orders to do those things. There are sick people in the American society so there will be sick people in our Army. Lets not even begin to think of what goes on in China's prisons. The media is rarely let into those places, so we will never know what really goes on in there, except for the accounts of former prisoners who escape to the US or elsewhere.
