Yep. There's just incredible demand for media attention on police problems (or certain problems) and in a country of 350m you can always find something somewhere that can be reported.

What the poster above is showing is that even the medical review boards are actually bad and should probably be replaced with independent oversight. You seem to think that it's the other way around.

I don't think they said this at all.

They didn't say it, but it is the natural conclusion to be drawn.

C'mon man, it's not just because there's 350 million people in America.

You know there are countries that have less of these problems per capita.

I don't know at all. Happy to look at peer-reviewed studies that publish their data, though.

You genuinely believe that the United States is #1 in the world for lowest per capital w.r.t. police problems like corruption and brutality?

Where does that belief come from? Do you just default to thinking that the US is the best, or is this opinion based on some sort of life experience?

Like can you not conceive of another country where the kinds of things that go on in America with police are not routine?

Have you been to another country? Have you ever just walked down the street somewhere else? I've been to many countries, one of which is America and holy shit I can tell you that the police there are weird.
