Well the fact he's dead from a brutal murder suggests that crime doesn't pay!

When it comes to organised crime you can choose to die either as a rich man or as an old man. Not both.

No point being the richest guy in the graveyard!

Murdered in a hail of bullets is the easy way out!
The misery they have inflicted on others, doesn't compare!

amusing account of the funeral in the Indo, some junkie went through the crowd looking for some spare change bud - was asked to show some respect - the irony of it all

Never miss an opportunity, the brass monkeys. Bet their suppliers looked at them like they were filth, Yet providing for their lifestyle. Who the Fcuk gets a coffin for €20k? 11, 11 limos etc. This was a stupid show that the gardai facilitated, absolute joke.

I'm not quite sure how the gardai' facilitated' an expensive funeral?
When did the gardai become the police of purse strings for peoples funerals?

The problem is 50 convictions free,100 convictions free,200 convictions free.

1000 odd people turn up for some lowlifes funeral, and they say crime doesn't pay.

Well, the manner in which he died would suggest otherwise. These scumbags have plenty of support in this country. That lad is probably consider to be a 'salt of the earth Dub' in certain parts of Dublin.

At what cost is the tourism industry hit....? Dublin has had its own special update segment on Skynews for the last week..

It puts Dublin in a poor light for any of our UK cousins thinking of coming over for a weekend... (And spending plenty of the Queens pounds too...)

I wonder how many people see the big picture here... It's not just the Garda bill for hosting the scumbags whilst they visit - It's the millions of lost revenue that hasn't been brought into the country due to this filth playing hardmen on our high streets.

Woman!!
And the gardai did not give them an escort from the airport!! Don't believe everything you read.
Helicopter, and protection for the funeral was, unfortunately, necessary.
Do you want gunmen running rampant through streets and cemetarys in Dublin seeking revenge?

I'd well believe it. The junkie shuffle is never too far away in that part of town.

A certain 'famous' tailor in Dublin City was asked to provide all the suits too. Plenty of cash to be made today for those who supply services to the funeral industry

Why is everyone being coy? The tailor isn't going to come after you.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,

Lets hope his coffin rusts.

from looking at pictures and media reports, this most have been the most costly funeral in Irish,never mind gangland history - the priest must have got a tidy sum to talk about the victim in such glowing terms

should be exhaustive investigations into how this funeral was paid for and who paid for it - vulgar display of illegitimate dosh

Were you at the funeral? What were the "glowing terms"? Have you ever been involved in organising a funeral? Have you ever even actually attended a funeral?

Andalucia

unfortunately, I wasn't left in to the funeral owing to strict door policy of sharp tailored suit, blue shirt and sunglasses. I'll know better for the next one

But you heard the eulogy? You said the priest used "glowing terms " to describe the deceased so I presume you heard it all?

not anywhere near the most expensive one , Andy Connors cost some money .
He was buried with €100,000 of his jewellery including a Rolex Presidential Diamond watch which is worth €40,000 alone.
As well as being buried in a gold-plated coffin worth €28,000

No taste, new money, bling almighty. Feck that.

Reminds me of some Traveller dispatches too.

Anyway, let them waste their money, what do I care. All forgotten by most the next day.

Death the leveller. All in the ground or in the furnace. Same end for everyone.

But there's not one single reference in that article to the priest having referred to the deceased in "glowing terms" so maybe you posted the wrong article?

"The Tailor" Dublin's latest supercriminal, so named because he lines people in chalk.

On Newstalk lunchtime yesterday he was being interviewed and referred to him as an innocent man who everyone liked, would always lend a hand and was always polite etc etc. He almost said he was a pillar of the community. You can listen back on the podcast.

I was listening
The priest didn't know the man personally
This is now the case for the vast majority of funerals of young people
The priest is engaged to say a funeral mass for a person he doesn't know and the expectation is that the priest will eulogise the deceased during his homily
So he has to be briefed by the deceased nearest and dearest about different aspects of the dead mans character, personality etc
What do you think his heartbroken nearest and dearest said about him and what did you want the priest to say instead?
Also, why would the priest cause pandemonium in the church by saying what we all know is true? Why? What would that achieve?

I suppose the priest could have discussed his (the deceased) "Work" and remarked how successful he was and that his family could afford to be very Ostentatious with their funeral arrangements.

Its harder for a Rich Man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven than for a camel to go through the Eye of a Needle ! (You Know That Kind of Thing)

He probably was a polite, well liked and always lnt a hand. Just because he sold drugs and maybe did some other bad things doesnt mean he was rotten to the core. Theres good in all of us, it just depends on our circumstances and surroundings weve all been brought up in. i know people who have did time for murder and other terrible things during the troubles and now they are one of the best and decent people you will ever meet. I dont buy into all that paper talk about all these drug dealers and the wealth their supposed to have. They do this to shock society and also to sell papers. Fs i knew a guy in glasgow who was supposed to be rolling in money yet he hadnt 2d to rub together! Dont always believe what you read in the papers.

How would that go down with the assembled mourners I wonder?
The family couldn't get an undertaker and Gsrdai and everyone else IS paralysed with fear of these people but you want one unarmed man to stand up and speak out on his own
Makes sense.

I thought this religious stuff was about making hard choices and not playing to the Gallery.

Jesus forgave the criminal next to him on the cross. It's not the priest's place to condemn this man from the pulpit, in the priest's mind he believes that the Lord will decide his fate.

Correct, shoot them all and God will sort them out.

I still can't see them going Mexico, like some people believe, doing horrendous killings of rivals on video then posting it online.

The priest could have said that which would have been something !

Sure wasn't the poor ould priest affiliated to the worlds biggest gang of kiddie fiddlers....???

The Catholic church may not have worn cut suits and shades, but they too, brought terror too many innocents in Dublin too...

Just saying....

If someone comes to the church to request a Christian burial then the cleric must do his best
I don't think you know very much about funerals or humans in general

The Indo removed the online pic with the house number printed underneath, good

Agree, a very safe house while the Gardai are present.

Don't recall seeing any photos of the hearse being carried into DBs family home or the Indo printing the actual house number?

Seriously?

People expect that the priest would do what no one here would do, stand up in front of a gathering of a criminals close family and friends and analyse their crimes and media allegations?

Honestly, what did you expect Fr Martin to say?!! If the guards couldn't put that scumbag behind bars , what exactly was fr Martin gonna say/do?!
He's a priest, he's not meant to judge. His job was to bury a man. The guards job was to find evidence n put svumbags like him behind jail. At least the priest did his job!

There are posters here who have never been to a funeral and have no concept of the priests role in the death of a parishioner
It's staggering really
