This is not a US specific problem. Pretty much any way you try to quantify this, the US looks similar to many European countries in terms of how the public feels about government uses of force. For example, when asked how confident they are that the military will act in their best interests, Americans give similar answers to people in France, UK, Italy. https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2018/09/04/trust-in-th... The US may be more partisan, with a larger portion of people on a side that can be identified with "increased use of force", but I don't think the US is qualitatively different overall. |
