If Guantanamo had've been run like a prison in Iran, or North Korea, or Africa, THAT would be barbaric. I'm not saying it's nice, but it's certainly not nearly as bad as it could be. Abu Ghraib is a mistake. No excuses, the people who did that were evil. As for the Great Wall Of Mexico...well, legal immigration is fine by me - a B&E job on a nation's border is a crime.
Thing is though, I'm not guilty for any of the crimes that have ever been perpetrated by nation. I'm sure you've seen me, throughout the years, be more than critical of this nation's crimes. I can and will call it like I see it. And for us to have been guilty in the past doesn't make those doing evil somewhere else any less evil. Doesn't mean it shouldn't be pointed out as evil either. Just not our business to solve it. We should be solving our own problems.
