Also, it's easy to say they should have taken all the time in the world to deal with it after the fact. What if he killed an airport worker by smashing her in the face with the computer? Then what? People would be seething that the police did nothing. It's a lose-lose situation. It's unfortunate he died, it really is.


Picture this:
A Canadian flies to Warsaw Poland, speaks no Polish, is left, without any help for 8 hours in the customs area.

I think "Dusenchskikikik" might be a bit upset at that point.

I also know that if that happened to a Canadian in Poland our Gov't would be set to launch missiles at Poland.
