Terrorist or Freedom Fighter[edit]

"suspension from duty and removal from the inquiry in 1986, based on false allegations" - this claim, the sue of the word 'false', has no supporting evidence, yet is clearly defamatory and should be clarified. The entire article is clearly bias and reads very much like an extract from Stalker's book. Ian Hampson, England, March 2015 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.254.201.36 (talk) 13:11, 31 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The second line of the first paragraph in this article could be viewed as POV: -

a police investigation into the shootings of a number of Irish Republican terrorist suspects by the Royal Ulster Constabulary in 1983.

Remerbering that one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter, i would suggest that this paragraph be rewritten as: -

a police inversigation into the shootings of a number of suspected members of the Irish Republican Army by the Royal Ulster Constabulary in 1983. Itsmjlynch 12:44, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article reads as if its written by his mum. Please look at more serious articles to see how it can avoid soiunding like a CV. Victuallers (talk) 15:35, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

John Stalker was sent to look into a shoot to kill policy by the RUC. He asked to many tricky questions. He was subsequently vilified by many including his boss "god's copper" James Anderton. This article is nothing like written by his mum. I think it is insulting to a good upright honest policeman. It is very easy to be photographed in a room with a known criminal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.32.24.4 (talk) 05:27, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Stalker Inquiry[edit]

First sentence of this section completely loses its way. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:B460:CE00:FC50:C00F:B621:8178 (talk) 02:27, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
