I agree, comment is easy. But I wonder if they would still be "our Boys" if the victim was related?
Shoot-to-Kill, as a policy of defense, is all very well but those responsible for implementing it have a duty to get it right first time and every time! The idea that SO19, which costs the country millions in in training and resources, are just bumbling along "doing what they can" in the vague hope that they might make the right call is horrifying.
It gets worse when those responsible try to lie, decieve, delay and cover-up what they have done. One might expect such behaviour in a Banana Republic, but not in England, surely? Or am I deluding myself?
I lived in London for six years during the height of the IRA boming campaign, I do have some idea of what the situation is like.
