More on the Tube ShootingTim Worstall's got
lots of links. He reports some controversy over the shooting:
As Nosemonkey says:
Are you really going to push someone to the floor and shoot them FIVE times if they're a suspected suicide bomber? F***ing risky, wouldn't you say? This is more like execution-style...
I may be well out of step here with what others think but we’d better damn well hope that guy had a bomb on him. Executing someone for being Asian isn’t going to help race relations now is it?And:
JohnB is less than enamoured of the practice of shooting suspects.Let me just point out that with suicide bombers you definitely want to shoot to kill, so he can't push the button. If anything, I'd criticize them for not emptying the chamber.
