They may be following their training, however "poor" and "fundamentally different" are not mutually exclusive concepts. The fact that the US train their police force that it's OK to draw their weapons and potentially use deadly force in far more situations than police manage in lots of other countries, would suggest that it is poor training, as many other police forces seem to be much better at de-escalation, and the training given to them seems to be a major component of that.
