Raoul Moat The "'Gunman'

I don't know he might get away tonight. But I'm looking forward to seeing the outcome of this. I love drama...

Hopefully he'll be dead by tomorrow.

Well, hes lying in a field gun to his head...with 20 snipers surrounding him.. Outcome could be anything

The only thing is the police haven't thought that he MAY have hostages Which could change the whole situation

He doesn't, they have a full view of him, he is metres away.

Should have been a black bagger from the start, find him, slot him, home for scoff :P

Apparently they got him with just a shotgun wound and now he's being treated. :P

1. Police or others would never fire at him with a shotgun of any kind, that's absolutley absurd. (CoD kids don't start ranting about range etc, I will freak)

2. He had a shotgun, but like I said before, why would he simply wound himself? Completley illogical.

I'm just after watching the report, I don't remember anyone saying they did that.

I don't understand why they'd shoot him with a shotgun, they would have to get pretty close you know, what with how inaccurate they are. Good thing it wasn't hardcore mode, though, because even being grazed by a shotgun blast in hardcore is enough to kill you.

Just kidding.. :o


Is there a live feed online of shit?

Cops almost always use tactical shotguns when entering a fortified building. Well here in America anyways, cant say much for other countries.

Yeah that's true, but I believe that's because they can be used to fire slug rounds that will blow locks out of doors as firing a shotgun in any room will injure anyone in your arc of fire which in most situations will result in more casualties than intended.

Should be noted that this happened out in a very open area, 'one of the last great wildernesses of Britain' is what the reporters called it. I guess it won't be reported much in America, you guys have alot of similar things happening not too far apart I hear..

Welp, he's dead. That's that I guess.

Ah so it was indeed him that shot himself, well, better that than someone else.

It was better off on him that he did shoot his self. If he tried to shoot his way out he would of had around 5 bullets go through his body which would turn out more painful than only shooting himself with one. Even if he did give himself up, he would serve a life sentence and there would be no point in him living if he did get out because everyone would still hate him and try and kill him themselves.

One less cock in the world!

lol such an imagination. He wouldn't have felt the pain of 5 bullets (very precise number?) entering his body, a) because the trauma of the first one would send him into deep shock as it does to anyone not previously wounded by a projectile travelling at thousands of feet per second. b) The first bullet would have killed him, these guys are marksmen, not gamers. c) They wouldn't fire '5 bullets' at him in the first place.

Take your pick :thumbup:

You were never really at much risk, he said he was never intending to harm civilians. Saying no to that police officer could have had you detained and is absolutely idiotic when somebody tries to advise you for your own personal safety when armed operations are being carried out you listen, and do as your told, otherwise you get hurt and have nobody else to blame but yourself. Also his head was not 'off' at all, he was alive until he reached the hospital.

Raoul Moat did actually threaten to harm the public in the final days as he was upset at the coverage he was getting in the media.

If I was the copper at the scene and you said no I would have arrested you for failure to comply with a lawful order given by a Constable. They told you to do so for your own safety and the safety of others, not to be pedantic.

So what...this leads you to believe his head was off somehow? ...ridiculous. And btw, it's not just as simple as 'taking' the gun, that's just stupid tbh.

Again, it's for your own safety, doesn't matter where the hell you live, heck in the 1980 embassy seige if you were a hostage being removed afterwards you were treated as a suspect right up until they identified all the actual suspects dead (or the single survivor that got jailed) consider yourself bloody lucky you weren't thrown to the floor and plasticuffed.
