I have to agree with goat boy. police brutality is ubiquitous in the US. The similarity to China is that when it occurs to people that 'nobody gives a hoot' about, it is ignored. Go into any big city in America and ask the residents of the lower SES areas if our police can be brutal or not. I'm 100% sure of the answer. The biggest difference may be that in certain areas, if caught on film, we sensationalize it and speak of it as the exception. The power of free press serves us well in this case as the more it is brought to light, the less likley it is to occur again.
