Don't be snarky.

Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.

He didn't assume that. Also, you're making the internet a worse place by accusing him of doing that. You should feel bad.
It's a logical consequence of the statement that America has all the ethical debates on genetics.
Pretty sure they meant "all these debates." Doubt they think USA has the only debates in the world.

As in, "you're having all these debates about how to defend your front door but you don't even have a lock on your back door."

Please don't respond to a bad comment by breaking the site guidelines yourself. That only makes this place worse still.
