Re: London Alert
I am sorry that the young man was shot......but he was ordered to stop and he didn't.
If he had complied with the instructions then maybe he would have been alive today.
There were pictures in the paper yesterday of a young man with a rucksack being handcuffed.......he did what the police asked of him and he is safe.
If this man was running, then the police have to assume he is running for a reason......they have only a split second to make a judgement.......if he had been a bomber and another 56 people were lying dead then they would be at fault......it seems to me it is a case of lose/lose situation here.
The man who pulled the trigger will have it on his conscience for life.
In the current climate some tough decisions are having to be made......this was one of them...and it will be investigated by independent police commission to ensure that policies were rigorously followed.
