I don't understand your point, if there is one.

  The point is the US is already quite authoritarian, with sweeping surveillance laws (enacted as a reaction to 911), illegal renditions and extrajudicial executions (outside the US), where discretionary power allows police abuse against minorities that is far more frequent than it is in the EU, but, since the people affected are the most disenfranchised minorities, there is little incentive to keep it under control. The US has far more pressing issues than the EU.
