That wasn't a passerby, that guy was with the bomber, but probably stopped the second one because the shopkeeper was coming out. Arson is one thing, murder is another.
I wonder if race was involved.
Yow! Really? I do tend to agree with you on many things ...
Now I don't know what to think.
You are correct; "Arson is one thing,
murder is another."
On second thought, now I do think you most likely *are* correct! It did look strange seeing the guy simply standing there watching the first firebomb thrown, and suddenly then, stopping the second throw.
