Police defend shooting strategy
Senior police chiefs today decided there was "nothing wrong" with the strategy they use to deal with shooting innocent people.
The Association of Chief Police Officers president, Sir Chris Fox, revealed that it was the 'only way' to deal with the threat of suicide bombers. "If they realise we're as mad as they are then maybe they'll think twice," he opined.
"If anyone's going to randomly kill people in Britain then better it be our own Police Force than some foreign group with an axe to grind."
"If ten, a hundred, a thousand innocent people have to die to possibly deter just one terrorist, it's obviously worth it."
Human rights group Liberty has pointed to the lack of shootings in recent weeks as evidence the police are losing their touch.
A Liberty spokesman explained: "The police service has an overriding duty to protect us all by randomly killing people we don't know... and it is failing in this duty."
"What the public don't realise is that the people we kill aren't all Brazilian electricians in morning rush hour," Sir Chris reasoned. "Quite often we'll do it in private... whilst in custody is always a favourite... or late at night when most people have gone home or are too drunk to notice."
