It is time to come to the aid of your country!

Today the International Association of Chiefs of Police confirmed new guidelines saying that officers who confront a suspected "suicide bomber" should shoot the suspect in the head.

In London two weeks ago the police killed their first terrorism suspect with seven shots to the head, one to the shoulder - no warning, because that gives real bombers a chance. The London police chose carefully, having rejected seven innocents before chosing Brazilian electrician Jean Charles de Menezes on his way to fix a faulty alarm.

We're too late to be first, but we can do better than one wimpy electrician, 'cause we're the best! Guinness, are you watching?

For rules, see the profile specified by the International Association of Chiefs of Police at the end of this post, but remember: all's fair in love and war - Jean Charles de Menezes was said to be wearing a heavy coat (a jeans jacket), supposedly jumped the turnstile (used his fare card), ran (to catch his train, being late) after ignoring "POLICE!" shouts (Warning? We ain't got no warning. We don't need no warning. I don't have to give you any stinking warning!).

So,ladies and gentlemen, step up, cameras at the ready, lets see pictures of suspicious people - pictures of those who fit the "profile" for police execution - sweating, nervous, praying, pacing, wearing a jacket in warm weather, carrying a briefcase ...!





Official guidelines:

The International Association of Chiefs of Police produced a detailed training guide for dealing with suicide bombers for its 20,000 law enforcement members. It recommends that if an officer needs to use lethal force to stop someone who fits a certain behavioral profile, the officer should "aim for the head" to kill the person instantly and prevent the setting off of a bomb in case one is strapped to the person's chest.

The police organization's behavioral profile says such a person might exhibit "multiple anomalies," including wearing a heavy coat or jacket in warm weather or carrying a briefcase, duffle bag or backpack with protrusions or visible wires. The person might display nervousness, an unwillingness to make eye contact or excessive sweating. There might be chemical burns on the clothing or stains on the hands. The person might mumble prayers or be "pacing back and forth in front of a venue."
