Double shooting in Birtley

[JawD 99]

I've always said we as a country should give Merseyside away. I'd offer it to Ireland, it does this country no benefit having it, and they always sing we're not English we are scouse. I agree so fuck off you tramps. Overnight it would have the living standards of Albania. 29% of people in that area claiming benefits it truly beggars belief even typing it.

 

Give Merseyside away?

 

Give away the grand national

Give away the history of the beatles (Cavern Matthew St etc)

Give away the most successful football clubs in England Liverpool and Everton won more English leagues than any English city

Give away the Royal Brikdale British open

Give away the albert dock

 

Give away Newcastle give it to Scotland at least they can understand you

Give away ant and dec sounds good to me

The places

"Liverpool and Manchester are as depressing places as you're likely to find anywhere... whilst the locals can be entertaining on a good day, the weather is shit, heroin is epidemic (but meth is catching on) and you've got a better chance of thugs putting you in hospital for no apparent reason than in any other part of England – and that's saying something." - US website Road Junky Travel

I'd give the whole north west away personally. Full of tramps, but Manchester is an important cog in the economy so I'd settle for Merseyside. The piece I've quoted there what would you disagree with?

Give away the albert dock

 

1. Have you seen that smug cunt Paul McCartney recently? What a walking embarrassment to entertainment. And for every Beatles, there are 20 Casts, Space and The La's.

 

2. The Albert Dock is shit. It shouldn't be a world heritage site, as it is full of overpriced cafes and nightclubs, and fucking crap shops that sell awful tourist tat like commerative plates with Steven Gerrard on. The sort of bollocks you get advertised in the sunday magazines in tabloids.

 

3. Bread was a fucking shit TV show too.

 

I'm siding with the Geordies here as scousers think they're something special, that they are somehow culturally superior to the rest of the country. And the love of wallowing in grief whenever some scally dies as well.................let's just say Boris Johnson was right.

I think Cast were better than The Beatles - then again hundreds of bands are.

kophead has to be someone pretending to be a scouser. The character is too stereotypical to be true... surely

[Kevin 1]

Rumours are that the nation watched the hero kill himself live on TV. Is that true?

Does anyone think this is a real policeman? I reckon it might be that dude who game crashes football matches.

[Tooj 17]

BLINDED bobby David Rathband told yesterday how the last thing he saw was shotgun killer Raoul Moat's eyes - as the silently staring "monster" blasted him in his own.

 

Speaking to The Sun, the dad of two also revealed how he gave a dying message to a medic: "Tell my wife and kids I love them."

 

Patrol car hero David, 42 - who was yesterday told he has lost the sight of both eyes - said he was certain he was a goner as an ambulance rushed him to hospital fighting for life.

 

Describing how the maniac's icy stare was the last thing he saw, the brave PC exclusively told The Sun: "I looked into his eyes and I saw nothing - no emotion.

 

"Then I felt the pain full-on in my face. I knew my right eye socket had just exploded and my eye had gone."

 

Unarmed David - shot through a side window of his marked car as he sat parked at a roundabout - battled his agony to play dead as the cop-hating maniac blasted him AGAIN, this time in the left shoulder.

 

He said: "Every time I moved I heard the whooshing sound of blood coming out of my face. It was like the noise when you throw a bucket of water down an alleyway."

 

The officer's only hope was to radio for help as he lay slumped in his Volvo T5's footwell.

 

But he knew the crazed killer would finish him off if he saw him still alive in the growing sea of blood.

 

In desperation he managed to activate his radio with only the slightest movement of his left thumb. Colleagues raced to the horror scene on Newcastle's A1 western bypass.

 

Moat, 37 - on the run after wounding his former girlfriend Samantha Stobbart, 22, and shooting dead new boyfriend Chris Brown, 29, in Gateshead - had fled into the night. Convinced he was dying, the blinded PC told fellow officers everything he could to help catch the bodybuilding steroid freak.

 

The officer survived by a miracle - and insisted the Northumbria force issue a photo of his hideously bloodied face to alert the public to the fugitive.

 

Yesterday David - a Northumbria cop for ten years - admitted in hospital: "I said to the guy in the ambulance, 'Will you please tell my wife and children that I love them - I'm going to die. Will you please tell them'."

 

David recalled the moment his life changed forever just hours after surgeons who battled to save his sight broke it to him he had lost his left eye too. The PC, who still has more than 200 shotgun pellets in his skull, told how he is determined not to let Moat win by wrecking his career.

 

He declared defiantly: "I will just have to make the change from being a policeman to being a blind policeman. I will still be a copper."

 

The PC told how ten days ago he was parked monitoring traffic in the hunt for rampaging Moat.

 

Just 12 minutes earlier the muscleman had phoned 999 to declare "war" on the police.

 

Moments before the ambush David sent a text to his wife Kath, 40 - a nurse - because it was so quiet. He said:

 

Close_quote It was my daughter Mia's 12th birthday and she had loads of friends round for a sleepover. I texted Kath to see if she was coping with ten 12-year-old girls in the house. She texted back to say she was doing fine and said: "Lots of make-up, music and sweets. Hope you are not too busy."

 

I texted: "I'm not too busy. I am just looking for a man with a gun." She replied: "I don't like the sound of that. Be careful.Close_quote

 

David, who is also dad to Ashley, 17, continued: "I went to put my phone in the pocket of my driver's door and then a sixth sense told me someone was watching me. I looked over my left shoulder and I saw this man running towards me. He had a gun pointing at me, ready to shoot, with the butt under his chin. He ran quickly to the car, like someone running to catch a train that is pulling away from the station.

 

"He bent down, pointing the gun at me through the passenger window." David went on:

 

Close_quote He was just 3ft away. I looked into his eyes and I saw nothing. No emotion whatsoever. It could have been the most defenceless person in the world sat there and he would have still pulled the trigger.

 

There was no feeling or expression on his face. He was completely fixed on his objective, which was his next target.

 

There was nothing I could have done to make things worse or better. It was all happening too fast. My first thought was: "Oh s***, it's him." I saw him point the barrel at me. I knew then I was in trouble.

 

There was no way I could start the car or get out of the door. I was scared to death.

 

My life didn't flash before my eyes because there wasn't time. I just thought, "I'm not getting out of this situation." I knew I was about to be shot.

 

We looked into each other's eyes. He had this glassy stare - in a world of his own, completely devoid of emotion.

 

I heard a deafening noise. Imagine the biggest firework you could buy, put it in a metal drum, stick your head in the drum and then let off the firework.

 

That would come nowhere near the noise of this bang. I've had broken bones in my life and had some bad injuries but nothing can compare with that pain I felt then. It felt like someone had lasered the full front of my face off.

 

The force of the shot pushed me forward into the footwell beneath the steering wheel. I was aware there was a huge volume of blood spurting from my face.

 

Every time I coughed or cleared my throat there was a whooshing noise of blood coming out of my face and through my fingers.

 

I was holding the front of my face on with my hands.

He had shot me right between the eyes - there was a huge hole in my forehead and my right eye had gone. I couldn't see anything.

 

I knew he was still there. I thought about pressing the emergency button on my radio which overrides everything else and would allow the control room to hear everything. He shot me again, this time in the left shoulder. If I moved he would know I was alive so I played dead. I was trying to not make a noise even though there was blood everywhere in my nose and throat.

 

There is a press-to-talk button in the car so you can use your radio while your are driving.

 

As I had slumped forward I managed to put my left hand there so I knew I could move it without him seeing my thumb move.

 

I did not know if he was still there or not but I pressed the button and whispered, 'I have been shot. I need urgent assistance'.

 

I heard sirens coming. It seemed like a lifetime. A dog sergeant pulled up. I could hear him on his radio, saying, 'He is in a bad way, I need a paramedic'. A paramedic arrived quickly and I could feel them pushing things into my face and chest to stop the bleeding.

 

The pain was unbearable but the overriding emotion was a fear of dying. I cannot begin to describe the feeling. I was just aware my face was no longer there.Close_quote

 

David was rushed to Newcastle General Hospital. He said: "They cut off my clothes which were so blood-soaked they just fell off me. That was the last I remember.

 

"Next thing I woke up to find my wife talking to me over my right shoulder and my Chief Constable Sue Sim on my left. They were both crying.

 

"The first thing I said to my wife was, 'I'm sorry'. I hadn't done anything wrong but I should not have been shot, no one should. But I was so sorry for putting her through this. My initial thought was one of relief that I was not brain damaged because I could hear my wife talking to me. I thought that was a bonus.

 

"But I felt like I had no face left. I knew my right eye had gone and my left had stopped working. It was complete darkness."

 

He said of Moat, who blasted himself to death on Saturday after cops finally cornered him: "I am angry he has wrecked all the hard work that me and my wife have put in to provide for our children.

 

"But I was doing the job I love, it was the job I was paid to do.

 

"I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

 

"This is life-changing, it is not life-wrecking which it would have been if he had succeeded. So I just have to be grateful for that."

 

Sometimes you lose faith in humanity when you see some of the dregs of society out there, who hero worship Moat.

 

He's showing some amazing dignity there as well btw.

People hero worshipping Moat need to give their heads a shake. He wasn't some working class hero expressing some partisanship to local police.

 

He was a child beating, psychotic, paranoid murderer. He was very far gone and a disgrace of a man.

 

People may as well set up Facebook groups praising Myra Hindley for fucks sake!

Bang on, hardly Robin Hood material. Still I presume being 'gangsta' these days gets you hero status with glue sniffing charvas who think they're all West Side. If he'd survived I imagine Moat would now be working on a rap album.
