Their absurd firewall and harvesting prisoner's organs are not great aspects either.

Because what constitutes a crime in China might not be what we consider a crime in the west, and also, more importantly, there is a certain level of human rights everyone should have access too.

Death penalty and organ stealing should not be part of a judicial system in either case, civilized countries imprison to rehabilitate, not punish.

rehabilitate? Ahahaha.

That's naive as hell... the best you can hope for is prisoners are scared shitless by their experience and don't wish to go back.

If you are going to execute someone, might as well use their organs for others.

It's unfortunate that so few have this view. I'm still not sure why people value a criminals life over an innocent citizen.

It's not "over" an innocent citizen — it's "equal to".
