Have a cookie. You're delirious. United States being in the top five capital punish-er list conveniently masks the fact that the top culprit, China, is in a league all by itself. Its several orders more depraved. Its several orders higher than the rest in the list, combined.

>Have a cookie. You're delirious. And you are very patriotic. Bravo. What exactly was the "delirious" part? That I treated both the same, whereas China is #1 with a difference in capital punishments and the US is "merely" #4 or #5? Sorry, but where I come from, both are abhorable, as we prefer zero (0) capital punishments anyway. I don't find "but we kill far less" an excuse in 2013. Especially since you also kill 15 and 16 year olds (in Texas and elsewhere) or even mentally ill people. >United States being in the top five capital punish-er list conveniently masks the fact that the top culprit, China, is in a league all by itself. Its several orders more depraved. Its several orders higher than the rest in the list, combined. It's also several orders bigger. Like 4 times the population of the US. But I agree, China executes far more people even taking that into account. That said, it kills their own subjects. The US does most of it's killing outside its borders. How many wars have it been involved to, in places it has no damn place to be in? How many innocent millions have it killed directly or helped be killed (by supporting tons of dictatorships all around the globe, from Pinochet to Saddam in the 80s)? Oh, and the recent trend of execution by drones? That's even worst than Chinese execution. No trial, no jury, bombing, killing innocent people along (like a full wedding, with 49 dead, including 9 children), and in sovereign countries, none the less. Seems like the worst offenders (warmonger, dictatorship supporter and enabler, black slavery, atomic bombs) etc, are always the most hypocritical and hollier-than-thou ones.
