Stop trying to belittle me with your predjudice, anti-American slurs. Yes, I'm an American, but I'm not one of the people that blindly follows this nations leaders. I'm not for the Patriot Act, and I don't own a terrorist survival kit.

Failure. It wasn't an anti-American slur. What you were so blindly accusing Britain of, is what America is guilty of.
:
I have not read an article that refers to such an action being taken. What I have read merely states that they chased him with guns and shot him five times. If you have seen an article that clears up this matter, please post it, I would be willing to change my mind.

Look for it yourself you misinformed lazy infidel.
:
I'm basing my knowledge on what I've read.
|
Then you read a faulty, biased document.
:
Passengers said that the man looked absolutely petrified, anyone would be if this happened to them. You weren't there, so you have no idea exactly how these events played out.
|
And you're an American, so you have abosolutely no authority to tell me that I don't know exactly how these events played out. YOU are the one who doesn't know how this played out, not me.
:
No, it's a policy of shoot first, ask questions later.
|
Yeah "fight the power" you ignorant little shit. WRONG. The LAW which everyone in England KNOWS states that if you run from a policeman who has reason to believe that you might be dangerous, you can be shot. Therefore you never run from a policeman.
These police announced that they were police, and that they wanted this person to freeze. He ignored them and continued, attempting to board a train. It's his fault for being an idiot, not the police for doing their jobs properly.
:
You could be just a normal citizen completely unaware that your suspected of being in contact with terrorists.
|
It doesn't matter what you're suspected of. Everyone in the UK knows about plain clothes police, everyone in the UK knows about the London bombings, and everyone in the UK knows about the laws about doing what the police tell you to do, and what happens if you don't comply. There's no excuse for it, yet he still ran. He was an idiot.
:
If a group of men with guns, in civilian attire chase you and you run, you'll be shot. You have rights that should protect you from this. The evidence should be more solid then a suspicion.
|
Shut up, you clearly know nothing of our rights or what we should be protected from. These plain clothes police are the people who protect us from terrorists, and they do an amazing job. Why should there be "rights" that make it legal for a terrorist to run away from a policeman without getting shot? That's just politically correct bullshit and all it would do is kill hundreds of people rather than save the life of a few morons who decide to run rather than comply.
You know it's actually illegal to not comply with a policeman? So the guy had already done something stupid just by running. Why should these idiots be defended? They're just criminals anyway, he probably ran because he was guilty of some other crime and thought the police wanted to bust him for it. So it's one less person in jail, one less person soaking up taxpayer's money in police custody.
