Mum! When's the shooting bit?

Found amongst the slopbucketloads of the Raoul Moat crim-porn saga:

What future for Raoul Moat? | Rothbury | Raoul_Moat | Life of Crime | Sky News Blogs: "That future is likely to be spent in jail and what kind of future is that for a violent and angry 37-year-old man who is mourning the loss of his family and business?"

Yeah... so, all you people trying to put the Murdochs out of business; take a look at yourselves! Do you really want to be responsible for another tragedy?

Perhaps you shouldn't answer that.

Unedifying though this whole spectacle is, there is nonetheless something refreshing - in a World Cup summer - about watching the English press salivate over the prospect of a shoot-out...
