    It has to be a concern that there'll be another Shane Geoghan, Anthony Campbell type murder, where some innocent person gets brutally killed. It's not enough to say that its **** killing gob****es.


    The monks brother is probably an innocent in all this too.

    Really hate this attitude.

    We can't just casually dismiss a gangland killing that is happening on our streets.
    It's lawlessness that is highly dangerous that inevitably results in innocent victims such as that poor plumber a few years ago in Finglas as well as the traumatised eyewitnesses like those on Friday.

    One would imagine that this is linked to the shooting in the hotel last Friday.

    And Gerry Adams thinks that there is no gangland in Dublin.

    He'd know a lot anyway. :rolleyes:

    Yea it's amazing how the Gardai can't patrol every street in Dublin. Talk about useless!

    In fairness, Eddie was never in Gerry's league - fairly small fry.

    Don't under estimate the other side, You don't need property in Brazil to do what they did on Friday and if it's believed they have the backing of the RA

    Your a brave man writing stuff like that about the monks family at these times. IP address an all that!

    You can't kick down the door on an IP address. If it's a fixed ip then there's a fair bit of access to various sources to trace it. I'd imagine these people have other things on their mind than boards.

    What's even more sad is how popular love hate was.

    One of the most watched programmes ever in this country about Irish gangs killing each other.

    Just shows the publics obsession and fondness to that lifestyle.

    Just makes these lads think their celebrities.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,716 ✭✭✭✭Ally Dick


    I was under the impression it was the Monk's nephew 'Edward' and he sent on his younger brother Ross. I may be wrong.

    Eddie is/was an older brother of Gerry The Monk I think

    Ridiculous post.

    Masses of armed police couldn't prevent attacks in Paris recently.

    Yeah thats true I used to live in the area where hes from and there is a strong republican presence around there expecially in the boxing clubs ect so good point.

    Sure there are loads of them. Do you want the gardai to protect criminals now?

    Why, just saying they had a lot of tragedy since.

    I don't support people murdering people.

    My point was that it was inevitable, most of these career criminals end up having a work related death.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,138 ✭✭✭realitykeeper



    I think these gangs are their own worst enemies. They would be well advised to take time out and reflect.

    Who was shot tonight ? Eddie senior or junior ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,935 ✭✭✭TallGlass


    I'd say we are just seening the tip of the Ice Berg at the moment. Just hope no body gets caught in the cross fire or any unarmed Garda get in the way, these folks have no problem removing anything in there way.

    Well that is the point, armed gardai are on the streets to try and give confidence and to have them ready if they come up against an armed gang.
    But so hard to stop.

    Paul Williams is reported to be devastated with the news


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,165 ✭✭✭bigroad


    I thought senior was a carpet fitter,or used to work as one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,053 ✭✭✭Hitchens


    was this man killed just because he was an easy target?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,175 ✭✭✭✭Mantis Toboggan


    Another scumbag off our streets, fantastic

    I heard they burst into his home and shot him, If that is the case then he had cameras in his home so I'm sure the gardai have video footage of what happened if they were working

    He certainly isn't, or wasn't, any sort of Mr. Big - a soft target. Petty criminal.

    Your point was fingering the wrong man in the first instance.

    You second point is that you assume the victim is also a career criminal.

    Any chance you can be wrong twice ?

    I can see our wonderful gardai being really well equipped if ISIS ever kick off over here....


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,269 ✭✭✭Gamebred


    Read on twitter an attempt to burn the getaway vehicle failed,can see there being plenty of forensic evidence.

    Great post there, I suppose the French police and GIGN did a better job in Pairs.

    You can't put armed police on every street in the country 24/7.
    A little reality needed.

    Did they catch you for something?
    All your posts seem to be hitting at them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,075 ✭✭✭kevthegaff


    Would ye not think these guys would not be expecting an attack? Would they not go into hiding or arm themselves

    These are highly trained criminal who have probably travelled to eastern Europe or South America for guerrila-style training. Beat cops would do very little. Also these criminals would deal with beat cops no problem.


    Expanding units like the detectives and the ERU may need to be done in the future. But beat cops would have done absolutely nothing, in terms of prevention.

    Meanwhile SF call to abolish the Special Criminal Court to deal with these criminals. Do we really want to go back to the day of juries being intimidated?

    I'm a bit sceptical of politicians falling over themselves today to promise more non jury courts. (Nice timing for the election as they try to outdo one another to be "tough on crime") Will it really make much difference. How many gangland figures have been convicted in non jury courts for all the gangland hits over the years ? You have to catch and charge people first remember. And what about witnesses ? Not having a Jury doesn't stop witnesses being intimidated and afraid to come forward.

    The Gardai are in no way to blame. The courts system is though.
