Yes, good job, even though some on FR are claiming the police were "out of control." Nothing seemed at all out of control about this--they acted correctly, given what they already knew.

I don't think the cops were out of control at all. Extraordinary events require extraordinary measures, and the first Western suicide bombings are certainly extraoridinary events.

Absolutely. The correct treatment for a rabid animal.

Yes, it is unfortunate in an evidentiary way that the perp wasn't wearing explosives, but in this age of terror, people had better choose their friends and places they visit wisely, and when ordered to halt by armed officers they had better do so.

Better safe than sorry. Given the heavy jacket in warm weather, coming from a house under surveilance, and yes his ethnicity, killing him was the right course of action.

Would those be the same posters who insist on driving a wedge in every thread on this Forum? You know, the trolls, disruptors, and Democrats?

Must be.
