[QUOTE]Originally posted by tricky: [QB] We don't normally operate a shoot to kill policy in this country, but from the sounds of it making sure there's no central nervous system left to trigger a bomb which you are right next to seems like the only thing you dare do. If you we standing that close to someone you were sure was in posession of a bomb, how many shots would you take? And that the risk of a shoot to kill policy, you can't ask questions later. What of the non leathal restraint weapons in use or in development that we have heard of would stop a suspect pressing a button or not possibly cause the detination of the bomb the suspect maybe carrying. What if the bombers start carrying some sort of dead mans switch? Christ, what do we do then? What the police somehow have to do is to appear under cover, but be able to blow that cover and make sure the suspect they are following knows that they are Police. How, I have no idea. Most loudspeakers I know of aren't easy to conceal. As far as prosecution of the Police officers, is this much diffenent than a soldier acting on orders to shoot the enemy? The Police do have to operate where things are less clear cut, but a senoir officer would have given the orders to act, either directly, or by giving general orders about when to act. Deciding who was resposible for the death will be difficult, but justice must be seen to be done. [/QB][/QUOTE]
