What I believe Wildbus8979 is implying is trying to get the person they responded to to understand is “if cops are this bad outside the US, and US cops are worse, then yes US cops can be that bad.” Could they have clarified or spelled that out more? Sure. Could you have thought out your understanding of their words a little more than your initial reaction that they weren’t discussing the US? Sure.

I think wildbus8979 was deflecting by saying other country’s cops are bad too when the US’s cops is uniquely bad.
ICE is literally kidnapping people off the streets and disappearing them in countries they’ve never been right now.
