But they just kidnap you. In china, there is a murder wagon with a crematory. Nobody ever finds you.. And that is still a level up from islamic places where they inflict gruesome death on you in public by the public.

Right, other places also have evil people in charge and lack of rule of law. Agreed.

In China there are portable vans to serve as execution places for executions that are ordered by court - in lieu of having special buildings. No crematory and no 'nobody finds you' nonsense.

Still bad, but same for the "land of the free" that still has and carries the death penalty (for comparison, no EU or European country has it).
