I remember reading about the treatment of UN prisoners in N Korea during that fight.

The N Koreans said that UN prisoners were not treated any differently than ordinary criminals and other civil prisoners in that country. It was a level of negligence, abuse and brutality beyond anything you can imagine.

THAT is amazing! Americans have NO clue how backward, violent and inhumane the rest of the world is...yet Liberals constantly blather away about some BS global model that the US is supposed to emulate or a global test they say we are failing!!!! I honestly wish more Americans could afford to travel to some of these backwater s%$# holes... THEN they'd come home with an appreciation of just how well off we are here.

Amnesty International still considers the US worse because we have the death penalty. Russia does not (unless of course you are a journalist that crosses Putin).

You really think it all that diffrent here? A friend of mine (a cop) was on duty in the jail, and saw somehing similar here. He testified against his fellow officer, and was threatened, his family was threatened, and he was told unofficially that he would never get promoted because he testified against a fellow cop. He quit. The cop who did the beating got a slap on the wrist, and is still a cop.
