Another fucking spree shooting. Great.

Fucking full of guns, kid.

Farmers, inbreds, German IT works; all loaded with rifles.

I believe they have a few farmers in Ireland

Now I know

Our farmers don't have guns, they have accountants.

They still haven't found this guy... and he's a right big bugger too

Raoul Moat.

Funny name.

crazy name, crazy guy???!!!???!

If you've seen pics of this dude, Tracer, I doubt you'd have any notions of him having being bullied over having a soft name as a child or anything.

it's not a soft name

it's just that he doesn't look like a raoul is all

fuck now i'm on the internet calling his name soft

RIP darraghmac

I don't think he's going to make it to Ireland.

Ryanair staff not going to turn down 20 quid of a fare under any circumstances- they're more afraid of o'leary

Am I a Very Bad Person for laughing at all y'all's posts today?

xp Dermot O'Leary?

No, David O'Leary. Never went easy with the halftime hairdryer.

A terrible man

oh, football...

Taking no chances.

Broken Britain - now even fisherman need armed guards.

in my day we just clubbed the fish over the head to kill them.

jesus christ. does that guy really have his gun pointed at those women? that's what it looks like.

he really does, action leg stance and everything. wt? unless they've gone through a checkpoint without stopping that's ridiculous

think he is actually aiming at the boot that his pal has just opened hoping raoul moat is inside hiding

think he's using his scope to check out the cougars in the front

Give the guy a break, he won't get much chance to do all this Action Man stuff, stuck up in Northumberland

Oh dear. Proof that spoof news sites are getting increasingly unfunny, if nothing else.

how embarassing

He's been in a tent!

"The tent was recovered in a very secluded, rural area which is difficult to describe."

"The shattering namelessness of the unknown, the horrible, faceless void of rural Northumberland"

^ Northumberland Tourist Board really has to up its game there

LOL

I've booked a holiday in Northumberland in August. Do you think I can get a discount if he's still at large?

ha ha ha.
if they already have your money, good luck.

Beeb now talking to man in shop in village. They are so determined to get some action on this after missing out on the Cumbrian one.

Oh man, just watched about an hour of Skynews on this - or rather it was playing in the background - and it's beyond parody. They are not reporting on any other news in anything other than passing comments, and there are more Sky staff up there than Northumbrian police, and you know they are all desperate for this Moat character to go out, all guns blazing, in a spectacular bloodbath. But there's actually next to no news to report, so Kay Burley is walking around looking for locals to put the willies up - at one point she actually said, with her usual tact and understatement, "We're here to see how the locals are coping with having a madman on the loose". Various other reporters meanwhile, are wandering aimlessly around various disused farm buildings and outhouses and there are so many helicopters in the air it's like 'Nam. Ideal scenario is for Moat to turn up 500 miles away from any Sky News reporter and hand himself meekly in - perhaps to the commissionaires at BBC Television Centre.

Yep, media coverage has been amazing. "Dog there, not sure if it's a police dog or one of the locals, probably one of the park managers' in fact.'

'We can see two anglers there - walking along almost as if nothing was happening. Maybe they'll help the police with their enquiries"

Tom D correct - more Sky news staff up there than in the studio. Fuck it, this is their X-Factor.

Handy cut out and keep guide to "pyscho commando".

Nice bit of photoshop there, though.

Scary fucker as a baby, too:

All he really needs to do to evade the police is sit about, watch Sky News, and go wherever they aren't.

haaa

Can't help feeling that growing up in the North East with a name like Raoul and having ginger hair at the same time must be contributory factors

Mr Stobbart said: "Raoul, son, please this has to stop. We don't want anyone else hurt, nee more son."

Given that he hasn't actually shot anyone for several days despite threatening to, or indeed been seen anywhere, I suspect he will be found somewhere remote having killed himself.

... rather than face Kay Burley

xp Would guess this is why the helicopters fitted with heat-sensing cameras aren't finding him.

Sky have helicopters fitted with heat-sensing cameras?

Maybe he got eaten by urban foxes

Given that he hasn't actually shot anyone for several days despite threatening to, or indeed been seen anywhere, I suspect he will be found somewhere remote having killed himself.

Yeah this thought suddenly occurred to me last night.
