Its a very sad thing that this had to happen, and its a very hard way to learn a lesson. You cant jump to conclusions and shoot anyone who looks suspect.
On the other hand, I can sort of understand why they would do it. A dark skinned man, in a heavy jacket in the middle of summer, going into the train station, and form what cops say, he was looking suspicious in the way he acted. PLUS he started running from them.
Like someone mentioned, these police officers are not really trained for this kind of stuff, and with the mixture of their anxiety and adrenaline, it proved to be fatal for this person. Its sad to know that the terrorist are enjoying this display of paranoia.

Makes you wonder, why they didnt try and arrest outside the apartment? If they were so worried about the publics safety, why wait till he reaches a fucking train station until confronting him?! |
Because if he wasn't carrying out an imminent attack then it would be in the police's best interest to follow him, see where he goes, and see who he interacts with. That way they can capture the entire cell instead of taking one guy down while the rest escape. So in going to the train station and acting "suspcious" according to reports, it probably seemed like he was going to carry out an attack. At which point the police attempted to arrest him and get him to stop. If he ignored these orders and warnings, and proceeded to run to a crowded train, I can conceivably imagine that to the officers on the ground, he may have posed an iminent danger to the public and thus warranted lethal force. You people are all calling them murderers, and the only details you have are 5 or so bylines. Yup I'm sure that's all the info you need to know for sure that these policemen are murderers.
So what if the brazillian had been a suicide bomber? If he had been under surveillance the police has some reasonable suspicion that he was a terrorist. What if the policemen had warned him to stop, he ignored them, the police had a chance to stop him but didn't, and he ended up blowing himself up when he reached the crowded train, inflicting 20-30 deaths? You all would be calling for the cops to be fired ...

THey thought he was a suspect from the failed bombings a day before, so surely it was clear they thought he was a imminent threat. I find it hard to believe how he suddenly started acting suspiciously only when he entered the train station.
It looks rather clear cut at the moment.
