How many people get killed at the hands of the police in encounters in the US, versus the same in China. My guess is that at least on a per capita basis, the figure would be more in the US.
Also I do not subscribe to the view that Democracy is somehow morally superior to other forms of government. Anyone who has read Plutarch, can understand that figures like Pericles can manipulate the minds of the masses and rule as an authoritarian under the guise of being a democrat.
