Do you actually have any proper examples and in this country?
Didn't realise it was a list of ONE.

A New York Times editor resigned under pressure from coworkers and Democrats who criticized an op-ed by Republican Sen. Tom Cotton calling for deploying the military to deter rioters and looters.

Didn't realise I was expected to keep a detailed record of each instance that has been reported over the years.

"disproportionately harm black people. Isn't it Black people themselves doing that? Operation Trident was started because Black people were being killed.
Quote:
Operation Trident was set up in 1998 in response to a string of what are often called "black-on-black" shootings and murders in the Lambeth and Brent areas of London.
The killings, mainly of young men, came amid fears of a wave of 'yardie'-style violence, linked to a growing crack cocaine problem and a spiralling guns culture.

Quote:
The Labour Party member and former chairman of Commission for Equality and Human Rights, said: "It is young black men who are dying and by the way young black men doing the killing." And added three young people are dying every week in London "from knife crimes".
...
"This is not an accidental thing, what is happening is young people are being hunted down by packs of other people," he said.
"They are being stabbed. And aside from the ones who are dying, there are hundreds of people in this city who are being stabbed."
Going on to paint a very disturbing picture, he said offenders are now stabbing youths "in the anus so they have to wear colostomy bags", adding: "This is vicious and out of control."
