And thats the problem. We don`t even know 1% of what happened during this incident, only what the press choose to tell us. Reconstructiing a shooting is a lengthy and complex issue. I`ve read plenty of `Monday morning quarterbacking` on this issue from armchair tacticians who think an MP5 is something you record music on, and a Glock something you play music on with a couple of sticks.
This happened four years ago. I see a lot of ass covering from prospective future chief constables within the Met and maybe a little pressure from the bespectacled, thin men with short haircuts and dark suits at the Home Office. I don`t think the officers who downed weapons were protesting about the coroners court verdict, it`s more to do with the suspensions. After four years, one wonders what suspending officers in this manner will achieve.
