The information they had was that this man was a suicide bomber. Thats why they had to kill him. > there is NO need to ask ME what they should have done, ask the the > responsible. but who > are they? nobody was deemed responsible. who are the responsible > Mark, you re asking me. does > this mean you dont know? I asked the question because they had a choice, kill this suicide bomber or let him blow himself up and kill the other people in that train carriage. So, in that situation where you have been told this is a suicide bomber and he is about to blow himself up, what would you have done? I would have shot him. You seem to be under the misapprehension that the people who killed him didnt think he was a suicide bomber, perhaps that explains your attitude. > > let me ask you Mark; were you and your family born equal to this > man? or a bit more worth? maybe a bit less? Equal, although he was an illegal immigrant. > what do you think? I guess your answer is yes; we were equal. > that implies you have equal rights as humans.

The way I say it is factual not emotive and misleading. > like he was would you have liked the responsible convicted? hmm. > whats thats smell?? hypocricy? Absolutely not. If an aircraft crashes and fall on my head because a terrorist blew a hole in the side,why should I blame the pilot or the airline? If I get run over by a car and its a total accident why should I blame the driver? Eric, sometimes shit happens in life, thankfully that kind of incident is so very rare in our country that it doesnt come up too often, sometimes you have to accept that things can be tragic, unfortunate, an accident without anyone being to blame. I understand the family being pissed off, its natural to want to blame someone. Its interesting their criticism of British justice though, given the country they live in, but thats by the by. The only people to blame for this incident are the suicide bombers (and those who encourage/support them). Noone else. Whats wrong with blaming them Eric? > surely not. why dont YOU write it to us Mark: if my a member of my > family was shot like this I d be Ok if noone was deemed > responsible. I would say that following the investigation by the IPCC - who have an axe to grind with the Met Police - the fact they found noone was criminally negligent should be enough for you. Finding a scapegoat will not bring your loved one back. The Police were doing an absolute appalling job and protecting the general public. Sometimes mistakes happen, it doesnt make it any less painful for the victims, or any less tragic, but they were genuine mistakes made by genuine people putting their lives on the line to keep our country safe. As I have said numerous times now, the only people to blame for all of this are the suicide bombers. Why is that so difficult for you to understand? _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
