    RTE say "at least" 2 dead. They usually hint at things. I don't like the sound of it but hopefully no more fatalities.

    It's hard when nothing is showing up to suggest 5 were shot =/

    Besides if someone here is saying that's the case then it's hardly too much to ask of them to provide a source

    I was just saying what reporters were tweeting, corrections are now being made by all outlets.

    To be fair i don't blame people for responding angrily to suggestions of dissident involvement in this. The murder of a garda, no matter the circumstances, is an affront to us all.

    Dissident republicans- they haven't gone away you know. Stick your head in the sand all you want but this is two members of our Gardai shot in Louth by people with links to Republican movement

    There are no more than 3 people shot. 2 dead and 1 wounded.
    It's bad enough without having to exaggerate the mess.

    When a member of the state's police force is killed in the line of duty- it's very much political

    And let's not forget Adrien Donohoe, whose murderers fled - abroad in all cases i believe. Gardai in Louth identified them as dissidents.

    @CharlieFlanagan: The killing of a Garda in the course of duty is a direct attack on the rule of law & is an abhorrence. http://t.co/tUVvDMwyXV

    And how do you know this at this very early stage? Source please.

    I'm not sticking my head in the sand. I know what still exists. Stop making assumptions about me. You called me a bot because of that post? Pathetic.

    It is utterly amazing how quick the Shinnerbots come out. Unreal. People have died here you know. Killed by scumbags.
    And that's all they are. Scumbags.

    Honestly, what the hell are you talking about

    People ask for sources.
    Adams amongst others expresses sympathy.
    People start going on about him, IRA, etc and others say not to go off on one until the facts are known.

    So where are the "shinnerbots" ?

    The shinners didn't come out, there was an unfounded implication of dissident involvement.

    However. Reported crime scene in Newry. Handgun used. Louth. The gall to murder a garda. And journalists reported dissident involvement. but you can't say anything right now other than offer condolences.

    Was Det Garda McCabe killed by them too?

    RIP, thoughts are with the family's of those killed. And thoughts with the young family of the Garda killed in the line of duty, another awful waste of life to add to the awful weekend.

    Also the poor wife of Adrian must be living it all over again. So close to home.

    The people that killed the Garda tonight are worse than scum

    Just what I was thinking. Will bring it back in an awful way for Caroline Donohue and their family.

    RIP to those who have died, and thoughts are with all affected.
