    Oh, I don’t doubt that the U.S. court system treated these people better than Russia would. I just don’t think that it’s accurate to compare the two on this matter.

    I don’t think awarding money to people because they suffered something that should never have happened is applause worthy. That’s bare minimum shit, especially because this isn’t the first instance something like this has happened. I’m referring to the Tulsa race massacre.

      I agree.

      The obvious point that the OP was making…

      Accidental? Do better, Russia. America hits its targets.

      … was to suggest equality between the United States and Russia and how they handle situations like this in general.

      While the US did not handle it as well as it should have handled it, it did handle it better than Russia would, and to suggest otherwise is not factual, but instead just trying to sway opinion.

      The OPs comment seems to be a normal state of affairs for legal versus “legal” situation comparisons of the two countries.
