Re: Moat - end of story

Well Eric, you are viewing this situation from a great distance, and I am pretty sure that you are not being given wall to wall coverage of this story......with newsmen/women who are like bloated blowflies, intent on sensationalising every aspect of the story.

And I think the vast majority of the population will have little confidence in a police force which took seven days,and untold amounts of costly resources to capture one paranoid man...but hey that is only my opinion....anyway the guy will be being judged in a much higher court by now.

Of course he is gloating; he has already achieved more than his alloted time of fame. But his type is hardly a rarity.

And I do not think that your police looked inept. They were in a no-win situation, playing supporting actors to a probably insane leading man. I think that the British police perform in a much more professional manner than would the kind of "shoot-'em-and-then-ask-'em questions later" inbreds that act as deputy sheriffs in Alabama, and Mounties at Vancouver Airport.

yer obviously not getting all the info mate if ya think police were not inept! a house they knew this clown had visited early in this debacle, the police did NOT watch, n moat returned a couple of days later!!! if that aint INEPT, i don't know what is.:eek:

A little bit derogatory & controversial that Eric, these" inbreds" are just doing exactly as you stated you would do had the situation been different & you were on the receiving end of the threat. Not sure ? Check the thread (The law is an Ass) Jan this year, posts 38 & 40, yours I believe. ;)

In this modern day & age we have to be careful about what we say & do & also about peoples long memories my friend.:)

The media go into over kill.

We'll have the news anchors based in a hedge in the northeast for the next week.

The Geordies have got a new anthem...it's called "When the moat does himself in"

Altogeather now.........

Dance to your Daddy, my little laddy
Dance to your Daddy, my little man
Thou shalt have a fish and thou shalt have a fin
Thou shalt have a codlin when the boat comes in
Thou shalt have haddock baked in a pan
Dance to your Daddy, my little man

etc..etc.

Well, he said he didn't have a daddy and I doubt if he would have caught 'owt with Gazza's fishing rod, but never mind.
