I disagree. While officially sanctioned brutality may not be a part of this
or that country, cultural factors undeniably breed brutality , at least in
certain sectors of it. Poverty ignorance, xenophobia and god knows what
else combine to make some countries positively burn with it. I've been in
more than a few of them.
