Just don't run

We live in such tragic times.

On 7 July, suicide bombers denonate four bombs in London, killing 56 people and injuring 700. Exactly two weeks later, another four bombs partially explode, throwing the city into chaos again. The next day on 22 July, the Metropolitan police chase and shoot dead a man on the tube with five bullets in the head. He was later found to be innocent.

It is very sad when even the effort to reign in terror results in tragedy.

Family of innocent man shot like a hunted rabbit should blame the terrorists for his death, rather than the British bobbies.

It was a very unfortunate situation. Clearly the victim was a troubled person to disobey police during such a scenario.
