Personally I think it was totally irresponsible
to shut 26 and make 1000′s of people sitting
ducks to a madman with a gun. I think that the
police have a lot to answer for. Instead of increasing
public safety I think it put lots of people in significantly
more danger and caused tremendous inconvenience.
