I am not sure I agree? I think there was good reason to
suspect a suicide bomber. A small part of me wonders if

Maybe he
Yes, it was a tragic mistake. I agree with you on his motivation and I can
also understand why the policemen did what they did.

Oh man, that really sucks. What a horrible tragedy. Poor guy. I feel for his
family, but it's hard to fault the police when they've just had the second
series of bombings in the tube in two weeks and they are looking for suspects
