Places like gitmo aside, almost everyone goes through a judicial process before they're locked up. China has judicial processes too. It's a question of the integrity of those processes.
If you'd like to understand the integrity of the US process, please read The New Jim Crow. It's not at all clear the US process is better than China's.

- nova22033 7y agoIt's not at all clear the US process is better than China's. Yes..just last week I was stopped outside Pennsylvania Avenue and forced to install a government mandated app on my phone and submit a DNA sample...
- Medicalidiot 7y agoRight right, the whatabouttheUSbeingracist argument. The US does not put people in jail for political speech.
- murgindrag 7y agoI don't think that's quite the argument. The argument is that the US justice system uses pressure of plea bargains to put millions of innocent people in prison, financial pressure to keep millions of people from getting justice, etc. The level of injustice seems at least similar. You're right the reasons are different. But until we fix our courts, we don't quite have the moral high ground here. Plus gitmo.
