Reasonable precautions do sometimes get people killed. I agree that in the face of the unknown it may be sensible to call them, but equally some would say it would have been sensible to engage tentatively first. But then I don’t live in a society which thinks it is normal for every Tom, Dick, Harry, Jack or Jill to go about the place with lethal weapons about their person, so I guess my view is biased.
