gay marriage is only legal in 8 states, and there's lobbying against in in a lot of the states it's illegal in And lobbying FOR it in the ones it's not. Plus, other countries have far worse treatment for gays.
weed is illegal for personal use in all the states Eh, I don't really have strong feelings either way.
there are politicians who support the ideal that rape is caused by the victim Nutjob politicians exist everywhere. But I agree that this is terrible.
11,000 gun murders this year alone Terrible, but

...in other words, not as high as many other countries.
homeless person gets 15-45 years (around this, not sure of exact numbers) for 100 dollar theft that he turned himself in for, ceo that embezzles millions gets 3-5 years Just awful, but probably happens anywhere capitalism exists, not sure.
cops almost never get punished for doing bad stuff Pretty sure they get same punishment as other citizens.
is that enough for you, or do i need to keep going?

You heavily implied it, by saying you hate the US.

There are corrupted cops, and i'm not saying any of them should not be punished.
You were implying that all cops do bad stuff, but very few do.

so if i say i hate pizza, that automatically means i love ice cream? your logic makes no sense
capitalism is awful too
no they don't, i can show you more examples of cops doing deplorable stuff and not getting punished than getting punished

What?

No, you clearly don't hate everywhere, though. And if you do, you're an angsty teen, and you'll get over it soon.
Saying stuff without citation isn't an example. My chart is from Wikipedia, by the way.
