>>> Yes - it's sad when police screw up they color the entire force and their mission. I have a hard time considering what I would feel if I was related to the Brazilian kid - even as an observer - it's difficult. As much as I respect the job the police perform - this one really creates mixed feelings.

It is called "collateral damage".


I understand that London is really nice this time of year. Maybe you can get close to some London cops down in the underground. In fact, maybe you could be collateral damage. Better yet, isn't it time for you to fly out to Baghdad and see how the troops are doing? Wouldn't that be a trip of a lifetime? Dude, go for it!

David,

re:It is called "collateral damage".

No - it's mistaken identity. If they had put a bullet in a real terrorists head and the bullet continued on and hit the Brazilian kid, that would have been collateral damage.
