You mean b4st4rd.I wanted to post the ginger thing Anyway - just shoot the ****** - it worked for us in NI for 20 years. I honestly think that 'shoot the feker' should be a law enforcement policy.Imagine the though process"Lads - lets go shoplifting - What the worst that can happen? ASBO?"v's"Lads - lets go shoplifting - whats the wrost that can happen? Bullet between the eyes?"Let's face it, would you ever consider speeding if the police could legitimately shoot you dead for 5 MPH over the limit?

I thought that picture was odd when I saw it on the news. Looks like he is posing or playing a game.

Just doesn't look right.

Well as long as one "accidentally" put his foot on the wound just ashame he lived though I dont think he is coming out of prison for quite some time.

"All i wanna shout is 'Moaty it's Gazza how ar ya' and i guarantee he'll shout his name out 'I'm here"

It's a sad thing that Gazza is in such a state. I met him a few years back in a gym in a hotel at Jesmond, he was alright & seemed straight.

Moat was never going to give himself up, I was surprised he shot himself, I got the impression he wanted the police to take him out. All in all it's been a colossal waste of tax payers money, all because he was bent out of shape over some lass

I knew the tw@t would shoot himself, wonder what odds i'd have got on that. Good that he's gone, bet the coppers are relieved now too.

I don't mean to make less of the fact that people have lost their lives by this bloke but am I the only one that think the media is going a bit OTT?

Just watched Breakfast news on BBC and the way the "specialist" was talking about him you'd think he was an extra from Universal Soldier. This woman was going on like this guy was some kind of uber SAS, SWAT, SEAL veteran.

I know the police have to be seen to be doing the right thing and ding everything possible for fear of (again) the media backlash if he killed again but it was one man. I suppose the police are panicking in the wake of the dude last month killing a bunch of people.

Its not the police as such I'm complaining about (and complain is a bit too strong a word) its the media making this guy out to be anything other than a physcotic thug who got hold of a gun.

The media makes me feel so scared about my future I better go out and spend my money on a new TV!

the media outlet with the biggest opening here is viz. Moaty has put himself up as a real life 'Big Vern' right down to the 'no ******* copper's gonna take me alive' finale.
Check next issue, it will be in there, guaranteed.

Apparently he committed suicide in the end.

Its a worry, and a pity that someone who was so well respected by his friends before all this should become so mentally disturbed.

i thought sniper s can though, the army snipers aim for a place in the head, where they know the brain stem is so they instantly drop with no chance of a reaction, ie hostage situation.

Better that he shoots himself than have a police sniper do it. Killing someone, even a low life like this, will always have an impact on the person who fired the round.
