It's not as though there was any question as to whether or not it was him that did the crime! I'd have no objection if a sniper shot him dead as he walked out of the building.

I would normally be talking about civil liberties, but as you say in this case the guy was obviously guilty and dangerous.

I'm with you ... I don't think the police did anything wrong at all.

Unlike the Metropolitan Police's 'random execution' policy as demonstrated by the shooting of John Charles de Menezes.

The people responsible for 'operation cratos' are dangerous idiots who have watched too many American films. If anyone needs shooting it's them.
