. . . and they would have all blown up with him assuming he had ready access to the trigger device, which is an assumption they would have to make I mean if law enforcement has the chance to shoot in the head a suicide bomber before their bomb goes off and kills lots of people, they are going to shoot them in the head - though the thought of that is horrifying to me.

I cannot believe people are missing that point. I get that this guy was wrongly suspected, but the police thought he was wearing a bomb and getting on a train in a city that recently has had several bombs expode on trains and this guy lived in the same building as the suspects and he was acting in an erradict manner. I hate that this happened to this guy - I hate it a lot. But, I think the police deserve some slack here. I think the problem is people do not believe the police about this guy being a suspect and think instead that the London police performed some sort of hit. I have no comment on the latter theory.
