Since at least 1976, police have picked up Indigenous men, women, and boys, then left them miles outside the city on sub-zero winter nights, leading to what’s known as the Saskatoon freezing deaths.

Saskatoon isn’t the US.

Yes that’s the point. I’m replying to one one who thinks this is only an issue in the US.

They asked if cops in the us are that bad and you responded with an article about a Canadian city.

They made an incorrect assumption that a lot of us are correcting.
What’s your issue exactly?

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.
