Raoul Moat, a Hero?

Raoul Moat was featured as a hero by some Facebook sympathizers. What is a hero anyway? From Answers.com definition, a hero is a person noted for feats of courage or nobility of purpose, especially one who has risked or sacrificed his or her life. Did he sacrifice his life to save somebody else? No, he killed, and it was not justifiable. Although he underwent emotional stress, feeling closed in, that didn’t give him the right to snuff out people’s lives. Yes, we may sympathize with him because obviously he needed psychiatric help. So, who is to to be blamed for all the events?

If you know and love God, you would fear Him. But He is a loving and merciful God.
You have to acknowledge Him. For any trouble, turn to Him, consult Him. lay your plans before Him; and you will feel that the "wrinkles" will be smoothed out, peace will envelope You.

Our sympathies should go to the families he harmed, and also to the bereaved parents, siblings and children of Raoul Moat.
