At first I wasn’t sure whether I thought the police brutality thread was appropriate. Then I got to thinking, what if someone started a thread chronicling “North Korean police brutality”. I doubt anyone here would object. Why then couldn’t we accept a discussion on police brutality elsewhere, such as here? So, I think the topic is fine.

  1. It was the wording of the original title of the thread that I objected to. The original title was “American Police and their crimes against humanity”. What if a thread were created with the title “X and their crimes against humanity” (and replace X with any racial, religious, ethnic, or any other group you could think of)? Would that be acceptable?

  2. Cases are being presented in that thread as if it is fact that they are cases of police brutality when it may just be opinion that there are.
