As Well They Should

British stand by 'shoot to kill' by Paul Martin
The Washington Times
"Police and the government said yesterday they will not back away from a tough new "shoot-to-kill" policy when pursuing suspected terrorists or suicide bombers, despite the death on Friday of an innocent Brazilian who was shot after fleeing police."

HeavyHanded wants to know:
A). Why was he wearing a long coat? An out of season coat?
B). Why was he running?
C.) Why didn't he stop? Why did he ignore police requests?
D). Was he duped?

He comes out of a building that is being watched by the police because of suspicious activities there. He then acts suspiciously by performing points A,B, & C mentioned above. You cannot shoot him in the upper torso because that would detonate any bombs strapped to his chest. You cannot just merely maim him because he would then detonate the bombs himself immediately. All this has to be determined and analyzed by the police in just a couple of seconds.

It has been reported that in some instances, these homicide bombers (as in the case of some of the 9-11 plane hijackers) were not told that they were to become "martyrs". Unwittingly, they went to see Allah (a bit prematurely) and reap the rewards of the 72 virgins.

Is it possible that this guy was duped?
