Let's get this straight. The guy spoke fluent English. 5 bullets were pumped into him because there were multiple police on the scene, which meant their were multiple guns acting in concert. Unfortunately, with suicide bombers, police are trained to make headshots because if they shoot for the torso, the bomb could go off. It is a horribly unfortunate incident and I wish it hadn't happened. But the real blame for this should be put at the Muslim terrorists doorstep. I can guarantee you, the next guy who is told to stop by a police officer won't run.

Really. Any time something bad happens its the terrorists fault. The people involved are never at fault. If someone like you were in charge, it would be an-anything-goes policy but we're supposed to blame the terrorists and not you. People are no longer in charge of their impulses.........instead they are motivated by their hatred of terrorists and their bombings. By your standards, its open season on almost anyone. A Christian pedophile rapes and kills my daughter. I can then go around shooting any Christian I see because I suspect they might be a pedophile.

There is a reason why civilized people have laws and obey them. What you are suggesting is acceptable is a form of anarchy. The cops lost it and they killed a terrified man who couldn't possibly understand what was going on because he was Brazilian and an electrician, not Asian and a terrorist. If he had been your brother, I suspect you would be whistling a different tune. BTW do you look Asian? You might want to stay out of London for the time being.
