There's one from NYC that says: "A police officer forcefully pulls off a protestors face mask and pepper sprays him. The protestor had his hands up in surrender when this happened."

From https://github.com/2020PB/police-brutality/blob/master/repor...

If you look at the video though the guy was pushing towards the officer against the officer's hand. What do you expect to happen when you decide to aggress on an officer instead of back away?

Here's the video they link https://twitter.com/_doreenpt/status/1266994439039455232

How many other incidents are there in this repo that are unfairly listed/described?

I watched that video. You have clearly mastered the application of Newton's third law, by pointing out that when someone pushes you away with their hand, you are also pushing against their hand. We only disagree about whether it's correct to pepper spray someone in the face when this happens.
