Exaggeration and inaccuracy
[edit]Two parts of this article are inaccurate and unsupported by the relevant links, in addition they are contradicted by various sources of news surrounding the event. As an encyclopaedia the article should be unbiased and accurate, not a vendetta against the police.
Point 1: Toni Comer cite expired, in addition she was not kicked and all force was ultimately deemed reasonable, I propose this be removed.
Point 2: Ian Tomlinson was pushed to the ground but was not beaten by any officers, in addition it's "an officer" not "a officer".
I am not a police officer, I simply disagree with misrepresentation of facts through ignorance, exaggeration or malice. However, I do not want to take the action to edit this article without consultation with yourselves.
Proposal to limit this list to only notable cases
[edit]I proposed to limit this article to only notable cases of police brutality, meaning those cases which have their own article. I'm saying this because most countries have thousands of cases of police brutality each and we can't cover all of them.VR talk 17:02, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
