    WRONG MAN

    I blame the terrorsts for his death. If the 2 terrorist attacks had not taken place in London, this unfortunate man would have been alive today. The police were at a heightened threat concerning random attacks and 4 of the terrorists involved were still at large. I feel for the family of...
