Summary justice...

Maybe if the PM comes back and it shows he was executed in cold blood then I'll agree with you.

As it was I live in the real world, not the happy, clappy world of niceness and peace some exist in and am well aware there are some exceptionally violent and dangerous individuals out there.

If someone had killed 4 cops in cold blood (yes not convicted but sadly courts don't work that quickly, I'll assume he did it) and I was an armed cop who was checking out a stolen car and he appeared behind me and didn't do what I told him to do then I'd be reaching for my gun as well.
