Meanwhile, over in the United States, the government of local, state or federal level let any Colombian drive through border checkpoints, for the sake of "ethnic diversity". No need to worry about introduced disease or drugs. Just, wave them through. All that "freedom" over there.
I often wonder why California has any national borders at all. The USA might as well be renamed "Central America".
It would help a lot if a little bit of what you said were to be true.
I am far from a fan of US law but in the area of rights they do better than we do but the shame is that even that is very poor. In the US the camera phone has started to reclaim rights over there that had been taken away for a few centuries.
Most US rights in the constitution were non existent as it was all unenforceable.
For centuries the police stepped all over the first, fourth, fifth 14th amendments and others a few hundred times a day. Cameras now make the Judge believe their own lying eyes. We were probably in front in that previous time but not now.
The big problem in the US is structural and in built corruption. Their legal system is corrupt and flawed by design. We are much better off in that regard.
