Depends.  If you look at the total percentage of population currently
incarcerated, the US is an order of magnitude higher than any European
country.

On the other hand, the US does have some interesting protections that 
most European countries don't have.  That's mostly not a problem there,
but situations can be imagined where it might become one.

It really is interesting seeing how much Americans are just plain afraid
of things in ways that Europeans aren't.
