"I am relieved that the police at last are sending the message that needed to be sent a long time ago, that they can offer us protection."

Well, they protected you from the guy who had no bomb, but they weren't much help against the guys that had bombs.

I am amazed at the fearful and subservient attitude i see in so meany posts here.

Regardless of the ultimate guilt or innocence of the dead man, dressing and/or acting unusual shouldn't be a capital offense. And the police shouldn't be allowed to determine and execcute the death sentence. Think of what you're saying: you people are asking for everone to dress and act alike under penalty of summary execution by the Authorities. I never thought that Americans or Britons would actually ask for a police state.

Do you really think that Big Brother loves you and has your interests at heart?
