Many cities in the United States saw large jumps in crime during the first half of 2015: the murder rate rose 48 percent and 59 percent compared to the same period of the previous year in Baltimore and St. Louis, respectively, said an article carried by the Economist website on December 1, 2015 (www.economist.com, December 1, 2015). James Howell of the U.S. National Gang Center pointed out that in the past five years the United States had seen an 8 percent increase in the number of gangs, an 11 percent increase in members and a 23 percent increase in gang-related homicides (www.usnews.com, March 6, 2015). |
| 槍支泛濫造成公民生命權無法得到保障。統(tǒng)計顯示，美國有3億多人口，私人槍支保有量逾3億支。過去10年里，超過400萬美國人成為襲擊、搶劫和其他涉槍犯罪的受害者。據美國槍支暴力檔案室發(fā)布的《2015年槍支暴力傷亡統(tǒng)計》，截至2015年12月28日，美國當年共發(fā)生槍擊事件51675起，其中大規(guī)模槍擊事件329起；共造成13136人死亡、26493人受傷。(注4)美國聯邦調查局2015年發(fā)布的《美國犯罪報告》顯示，2014年美國發(fā)生的謀殺案件中有67.9%使用槍支，搶劫案件中有40.3%使用槍支，嚴重暴力襲擊案中有22.5%使用槍支。(注5) | Citizen's right of life could not be guaranteed with the rampant use of guns. Statistics showed that there were more than 300 million guns in the United States which had a population of more than 300 million. Over the past decade, more than 4 million U.S. citizens became victims of assaults, robberies and other gun-related crimes. According to a toll report by the Gun Violence Archive, there were a total of 51,675 gun violence incidents in the United States last year as of December 28, including 329 mass shootings. Altogether 13,136 were killed and 26,493 injured (www.gunviolencearchive.org, December 28, 2015). According to the report "Crime in the United States" released by the FBI in 2015, firearms were used in 67.9 percent of the nation's murders, 40.3 percent of robberies, and 22.5 percent of aggravated assaults in 2014 (www.fbi.gov). |
| 警察暴力執(zhí)法嚴重侵犯人權。美國警方在執(zhí)法過程中過度使用暴力，造成大量普通公民傷亡。據《華盛頓郵報》網站統(tǒng)計，截至2015年12月24日，警察當年共射殺965人。(注6)巴爾的摩25歲非洲裔男子弗雷迪·格雷因警察暴力致死，引發(fā)了“為弗雷迪伸張正義”的抗議活動。(注7)射殺17歲非洲裔男孩麥克唐納的芝加哥警察，遲遲未被起訴，公眾為此舉行抗議游行。該警察之前曾遭20項投訴，未受到任何追究。(注8)美國全國廣播公司2015年11月19日報道，明尼阿波利斯市24歲的非洲裔男子賈馬爾·克拉克在已被警方控制的情況下被擊斃，民眾包圍警察局抗議示威，引發(fā)暴力沖突。(注9) | Excessive use of violence by police gravely violated human rights. Excessive use of violence by police during law enforcement had resulted in a large number of civilian casualties. Police shot dead 965 people last year as of December 24, according to data posted on The Washington Post website (www.washingtonpost.com, December 24, 2015). Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old African-American man, died while in police custody in Baltimore. His death, reportedly a result of violence by the police, sparked "Justice for Freddie" protests (www.usatoday.com, December 22, 2015). Outraged that it took too long to charge a Chicago police officer in African-American Laquan MacDonald's shooting death, demonstrators took to the street to demand justice in his death. The police officer had a history of 20 complaints before he gunned down the 17-year-old, but none resulted in discipline (edition.cnn.com, November 26, 2015). According to a report by the NBC News on November 19, 2015, protestors camped outside a police precinct in Minneapolis after African-American Jamar Clark, 24, was shot dead when he was already under police control. The demonstrations turned violent later (www.nbc.com, November 19, 2015). |

According to a report carried by the website of The Washington Post on December 1, 2015, the FBI used special authority to compel Internet firms to hand over user information, including full browsing histories, without court approvals (www.washingtonpost.com, December 1, 2015). According to a report released by the Pew Research Center on May 29, 2015, a majority of Americans opposed the government collecting bulk data on its citizens, two-thirds believed there weren't adequate limits on what types of data could be collected, 61 percent said they had become less confident that the programs were serving the public interests, 54 percent of Americans disapproved of the U.S. government's collection of telephone and Internet data as part of anti-terrorism efforts, and 74 percent said they should not give up privacy and freedom for the sake of safety. Most said it was important to control who could get their information (93 percent), as well as what information about them was collected (90 percent) (www.pewresearch.org, May 29, 2015). |
| 獄警肆意踐踏囚犯人權。據《邁阿密先驅報》網站2015年12月連續(xù)報道，美國最大的女子監(jiān)獄羅維爾監(jiān)獄充斥著腐敗、酷刑和性虐待，獄警將數百名女囚視為妓女，逼迫她們賣淫以換取基本的生活物資、保護或獎勵。在過去十年間已有57名囚犯死在了該監(jiān)獄，該數字尚未包括被送往醫(yī)院的囚犯。(注12)《華盛頓郵報》網站2015年5月13日報道，費爾法克斯郡一所監(jiān)獄的獄警用電擊槍將女性精神病患者娜塔莎·麥肯娜殺害。(注13)?？怂剐侣劸W網站2015年4月9日報道，佛羅里達州一所監(jiān)獄的獄警被控虐待和殺害囚犯，其中患有精神疾患的囚犯達倫·萊尼被強迫淋浴長達兩個小時，水溫高達華氏180度。他雖大聲求饒呼救，卻無人理睬，最后竟被活活燙死。(注14) | Prison guards wantonly trampled on prisoners' human rights. According to a serial report on the website of the Miami Herald in December 2015, Lowell Correctional Institution, the nation's largest women's prison, was haunted by corruption, torment and sex abuse. The guards took hundreds of female inmates as whores and pressured them to barter sex for basic necessities, a shield from abuse or awards. In the past 10 years 57 inmates died in the prison, not accounting those who make it to hospital (www.miamiherald.com, December 12, 13 and 16, 2015). The Washington Post reported on its website on May 13, 2015 that a guard in the Fairfax County jail killed a mentally ill woman, Natasha McKenna, with a Taser stun gun (www.washingtonpost.com, May 13, 2015). The Fox News reported on its website on April 9, 2015 that guards in a prison in Florida was accused of abusing and even killing inmates. In one case, a mentally-ill inmate Darren Rainey was forced to take a shower for two hours with the water reportedly rigged to a scalding 180 degrees Fahrenheit. Despite his calls for help, no one came. He reportedly died after his skin was partially burned off his body (www.foxnews.com, April 9, 2015). |
