Hell's teeth GUEST is that all you can come up with for a period in History spanning some 250 to 300 years:

Boston 1768 and 1770 on both occasions the troops themselves were attacked first and quite rightly defended themselves. The first instance resulted in a few fist-fights, in the second five colonists were killed when they deliberately attacked the troops - with rocks and snowballs - it would appear that this crowd were not the sharpest knives in the drawer.

On April 13, 1919, Jalianwalla Bagh in Amritsar, Punjab – Caused uproar within the Government in India and back in Britain the Officer Commanding, I think his name was Dyer, was court-martialled for exceeding his orders and sent home in disgrace.

In Iraq is this the case that the High Court threw out and stated that it should never have been brought in the first place. The case where all the witnesses admitted that they lied to obtain the £120 per day to attend the trial and testify. You were asked to give examples of "What have the British done in other countries for hundreds of years ?" Not what they are being accused of doing, not what they are suspected of having done, you Muppet.
