Default A shock

Our Queen, and other Royals, has been attacked by nutters before, but no one was killed. Terrorists did kill Lord Mountbatten. I am aware of the regard Netherlanders have for their queen, so it must be more of a shock to you than it might be for Britons, or to us Canadians who still remember that we are a constitutional monarchy and Queen Elizabeth II continues to be our head of state.

One relief was that the perpetrator was not a member of a troublesome minority, or things would become very ugly.

Dirk, I read that the guy was talking after the attack and then the next day he was dead. Could it have been the interrogation?
