Just because other countries may have it worse doesn't mean that we're doing well. Look at our prison demographics -- black men are over-represented by a factor of two.
- starkd 4y agoMeaningless stat if taken by itself. You need a more in depth study as to why those people are in prison. There are sadly many black men in prison who deserve to be there. The mere fact they are incacercerated at a larger proportion of their overall population percentage does not mean they innocent bystanders. The reason why so many end up in prison needs to be addressed.
