My point was about the role of the Police and it is their job, wherever possible, to detain such individuals so that they can be dealt with by the Justice system to determine their fate. And, yes, I am fully aware of how woefully poor that that system can be and how excessively lenient it can be too. I am also fully aware that there are circumstances when the Police have every right to use lethal force. I am just saying that if it is deemed acceptable for Police officers to kick people in the head when they have them on the ground without just cause and regardless of their crimes or the temptation to do so, then this is a very slippery slope to go down. I don't care about what happens to the attacker after he has committed such heinous acts but I do care about the principle.

Whilst I certainly believe that you cannot tar every illegal immigrant or asylum seeker with the same brush, I think it is disingenuous not to accept that elements from these communities pose a genuine threat and that the vetting of them should be far stronger before any are allowed to settle here.

On the subject of immigrants though, was it not an Iranian bystander who helped save the life of one of the Jewish victims of this particular attack? As he said of his actions, this wasn't about helping because the victim was Jewish or not, it was about helping a fellow human being. Credit to Ashkan Asadian.
