# apart from shooting someone
who didn't shoot at them then not telling the family about it. that's where this all started.

# again, not belittling gross miscarriages of justice
but you cannot blame every single policeman in the country for the actions of 4 or 5 people in one specialist unit, which is what is happening.

Deal with individuals, saying "the police" are guilty is no better than saying an ethnic minority are terrorists or the way someone dresses makes him a criminal

# Anyone who joins the police, soon learns what the police are about.
If they choose to to stay, they become complicit. Fuck them.

# My personal experience with the Police
indicates that they are complicit in helping to keep the roads safe, controlling thuggish behaviour and protecting my family members when violently intimidated by ex-husbands (among many other things, but this is only my direct experience).

That, in my view, is what they are "about" and if this is your attitude I hope that you don't ever need their services... and if you do I'm sure that they will help you out anyway.

# May be worth waiting for the inquest
If the guy had a loaded gun that he was pointing at a policeman then I'm not too sure that it is unreasonable for the policeman to fire first.

# Yes.
That absolutely justifies violent rampages through the streets resulting in the death of at least one person, millions of pounds lost to businesses, homes destroyed and social upheaval which will quite possibly last a generation.

Or... people could just wait for the inquest which happens after every fatal shooting involving the Police, and find out what actually happened.
