Talking about the judgement that we do for a society which is based upon how the rule breakers are treated in the society or those convicted for the crimes, United States isn't performing well for what a society would be judged for. Considering the recent case of George Floyd, where the whole country is reacting upon the various actions and custodies that are taken or not taken regarding the people in authority where people are being misjudged upon their races and are convicted guilty even if they had not committed any crime is a bad sign. This shows that even after such development and increase in the moden dimensions of the culture and society in the United States, people are still been charged for the crimes they have not committed just because they belong to minority races. This shows that USA still lacks a system of equality and treatment where not everyone who committed a crime is charged guilty, and many who haven't are.
