How can the US claim to be a leader in human rights when it ignores the majority of nations on Earth that do not carry out executions?

The same way I can claim to be "Prince of Every Country Beginning with 'S' and Patron Saint of Clowns" and no one will call me out on it if I repeatedly express my ambivalence toward human life and carry around a fully loaded shotgun at all times.
