    They should let him or just shot him themselves and get it over and done with tbh, he's already made threats towards the police and the public and they put a shoot on sight order on him.
    Someone left a note on a piece of cake in the fridge that said, "Do not eat!". I ate the cake and left a note saying, "Yuck, who the hell eats paper ?

    Unfortunately I fear he may simply take the coward's way out - either shoot himself or force some innocent police man/woman to do it for him....

    It's either been hacked, potato-chopped or the "copper" with the taser is just having a larf - either way, it's not really funny - I can see the beeb getting a few complaints about that picture tbh.

    Re: Raoul Moat cornered - Points shotgun to face

    Pleased its finally over, was quite worrying after the threats were made to the public. Newcastle city center being so busy probably would have been where he headed, that would have been really bad. Couldnt help thinking about it going into work over the last week.

    Was thinking that he would shoot himself in the long run.

    Me neither, my first day at my new job and I had to drive past where the cop was shot on the Denton Burn roundabout, remembered what it was like when a local cop was killed by someone he was escorting to Newcastle.

    Re: Raoul Moat cornered - Points shotgun to face

    My eldest daughter who is in care lives off that same Denton roundabout next to the Alan Shearer center (She is in care due to medical issues)

    We dont get stuff like this happening round here usually, think thats why it hits home a bit more

    +1.

    Assuming he's guilty, of course, and while I only have the same news reports as everyone else, this does certainly seem like a case where it's hard to doubt he did what he was accused of. In which case, I feel really sorry for his family, and not at all sorry for him. I know the Justice Minister says he wants to cut down on prison places, and the coalition reckons we all have to "share the pain", but this might be taking it a bit far.

    Having said that, I have no problem, in the right conditions, with the death penalty, and this dude seems to have skipped the tedium of trial and appeals and jumped straight to the endgame.

    Have to disagree there - I am sorry that a position appears to have been allowed where three people died unnecessarily, and one other injured. Why was Moat released early, and why weren't the threats he allegedly made in prison made taken more seriously?

    I accept that many people make threats that they have no intention of carrying out, but there appears to be evidence that Moat was unstable anyway, so I a'm pleased to see the the IPCC will be investigatiing?
