>>>Tom said 'kills an innocent person'. What is it that police, soldiers and the like are, first and for all, suspected to have misbehaved terribly, even in a western country like Brittain? Don't they have any credit?

>This evening on the news I heard that the police apologizes. The man did not have any bombs. The policemen have indeed gone too far. I must admit that it really shocked me. First thing I then think is 'you stupids'.

Never having been the object of a bombing, the object of someone who might be a bomber, or in hot persuit while at the same time being possibly in fear for my life, I have no way of knowing how I would act in the same situation. Certainly, I hope I would handle it better, but in this case, I'm just an armchair quarterback.

As that armchair quarterback though, I really do think they blew it.
