generallobster: I can not begin to fathom what was in his mind to act that way. All I can say is that his actions were precisely what the police would expect a terrorist to do, and therefore they did exactly the right thing. His actions got him killed, innocent or not.
My sympathy is reserved for the individual man that pulled the trigger on him. Can you imagine how he feels? Even knowing he did the right thing given the circumstances he is still going to be haunted for the rest of his life by those few seconds.....and all of those inevitable questions that start with "What if...."
