There is only one meaning to the sentence below. Which, now that you pointed it out, completely contradicts what you said earlier in your post. But, you are right, we are not studying for an exam we are reading a message board so I saw your last words and responded to them. But, I am glad to hear that you didn't mean it that way and I appreciate the explanation of what you meant to say.
I will say, relative to other countries, it does occur a lot.
