    It's a real pity about that man, but I can understand why they shot him. If he had a bomb he could have killed them and others. The officers are now likely to face criminal proceedings.

    Britain is going mad now TBH, everyone is paranoid about bombs. This morning I was evacuated from my flat, and assumed it must be a bomb but it turned out to be a huge fire, with gas cylinders.

    Then later in a cafe there was a bag left unattended and people were calling out for whose it was as they thought it was a bomb.

    and I was having an argument over this with my mate at work. Sayin that the British Police don't usually carry guns, and if they do they have a genuine reason for it. And a situation like this they would be basically 98% sure that they were right. Why was the guy wearing a heavy coat on a warm day? :confused:

    Yeah I'm still out of the flat, we've had to move into Owens Park for the night. We were waiting for our story to come on the news, thinking it was a bomb.

    Good luck with that, I am sure the whole country is going to be jumpy. I felt the same after 9/11.

    they wont stop you know.

    It's not like they are at war because they want land or money (main reason for war), it's because they want to kill as many westeners as they can.

    Idiots.
