Two cities. Financial hubs of their respective democracies. Two huge democracies.
In one city, a man is injured and arrested during a terrorist attack. He has killed high ranking police. He is questioned, and gives up information, he is arraigned in court the next day, showing no signs of beatings or maltreatment.
In one city, shoppers seeking an early morning discount tear the door to the store off its hinges and trample a man to death. When asked to clear the area, they get angry and yell about how long they have been waiting to shop.
USA!USA! way to go.
