London Police Not Backing Down

Warning to people in Britain: don't try anything stupid if the cops are chasing you. The police are not changing their tactics after killing a Brazilian man not involved in the terrorist attacks.

Britain’s most senior policeman, Ian Blair, defended the shoot-to-kill policy for dealing with suspected suicide bombers and said police were in a race against time to find those behind last Thursday’s attempted bombings of three underground trains and a bus, the second attack on the capital in two weeks.

“This is a terrifying set of circumstances for individuals to make decisions,” Blair told Sky News television. “Somebody else could be shot.”
