Well people who fired torpedoes at German submarines or who brought down Luftwaffe bombers were also deliberately setting out to take lives yet we pinned medals on them because they were on our side. You're conflating two separate issues. I support seeking justice for any victim of crime, and it looks to me as though a crime was committed in the killing of McCann. As I said, we don't have summary execution without trial in this country. It's hard work, but Joe McCann could have been captured and tried, not gunned down in cold blood. We'll see what the court says, shall we?
