How important these police officers are -- when it comes to the suicide
bomber threat we face today, these people are the gatekeepers between us and
the people trying to kill us.
So it is vital these highly trained professionals have the confidence of
their bosses and the ordinary public.
If they don't have that, it might lead them to hesitate -- that split second
could be the difference between life and death for hundreds of people.
The Brazilian was quite simply in the wrong place, doing totally the wrong
thing at the wrong time. Yet why he made a run for it, despite challenges
from police to stop, remains to be explained. Every one will understand the
awful dilemma faced by the armed officer. To hold fire and risk more
bloodshed, or shoot to kill.
