What the hell world are you people living in? The police don't get to decide guilt or innocence, or how much evidence is enough to conclusively determine someone's guilty. They also do not get to carry out sentences. And they sure as hell do not get to punish potential offences that haven't been committed yet.
Good lord. Stop and think for a damned minute. If they tried to arrest the guy and ended up in a situation where lethal force was necessary, that's one thing, but what a couple of people are suggesting is absolutely insane.

Pre-emptive action in that the RCMP heard that this guy was planning to go to a public place and suicide bomb and went to investigate. That is the action I was speaking of.
They showed up at his place to investigate, dude tries to blow up a bomb and they already know he plans to do another in a public place, they ice him. Good!
