Internet Rule #69:
Never, ever, ever, claim that another country does something better than the US. You will be flooded by US Exceptionalism.

- jgaa 6y ago> Never, ever, ever, claim that another country does something better than the US. Dear child, nobody is claiming that any police force in the whole world is better than the US police force - in killing unarmed, black people. The US police is std::exceptionally good at this.

- deathgrips 6y agoReally? Plenty of American liberals think that America is one of the worst countries on earth.
- ur-whale 6y agoThat doesn't mean they will let it go when some rando foreigner dares criticize their beloved country. It is their sole privilege.
- 082349872349872 6y agoOff topic: I consider the '-' in my comment scores to be the forum equivalent of a dueling scar. People who won't refute downvote. Oddly enough, while attempting to say another country does (in a single particular instance, not even overall) something better than the US, only gets downvotes to negative, when I actually attempt to defend the US (some of my best friends are Americans!), the whole tree gets flagged. In US social mores, is it considered uppity to mention that other countries and other people exist? On topic: https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/chmVn/3/ https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/chmVn/3/ 12 uses (not necessarily deadly) of a gun in 2018 would be what, 480, scaled to US population? In the last 20 years, police snipers have had to kill once. That would be twice per year for the US.
