    Comparing Dublin to Limerick? Bear in mind, the Kinehan cartel is supposedly one of the biggest in the world - a million miles away from low level Keanes or Dundons.

    Why comment then? We had gangland issues. They are sorted now. Dublin needs to learn from Limerick before it further descends into chaos.

    That's nice. So whats the wisdom direct from Shannonside? How can "Dublin" (Dublin City Council??) learn from "Limerick"?

    Living in Dublin city centre for most of ten years, I haven't witnessed anything more violent than a heated conversation on the streets, or heard much by the way of first hand accounts.

    Living in a small country town in Donegal I knew someone personally who was beaten to death after a night out, an uncle (different person) beaten to a pulp for standing in the wrong place, someone else run over (purposefully) with a car a couple times, and countless other incidents of scumbags looking for (and finding) a scrap on a night out. And no-one considers that lovely quaint little town to be a troubled spot.

    I feel much safer walking around Dublin.

    I'm a Dub who spent nearly three years living in a large enough regional town and this is exactly my experience. The lads from the next town over would come for a night out and there would be utter carnage, including one death of a guy who was hit by a car trying to escape a beating. Yes Dublin has its problems like any city on earth but for the man on the street it's a safe city.

    "Republicans" don't have a problem with drug dealers as long as they get to "tax" them.

    Limerick city also has a population of a Dublin suburb. Not that best comparison at all. Gangs are competing for a much larger and lucrative drug market in Dublin. There is more to gain from Dublin

    FYI Limerick still has a serious crime rate higher than Dublin. So what exactly has Dublin to learn from Limerick? You haven't dealt with your crime at all, Dublin is just in the news more...

     I know you meant in relative terms, and i do not mean to belittle how much of a scumbag gang the Kinahans are, but they do not even make the top 100 in the World. Which is quite depressing. I am not sure they even make they next 50.
    That aside, i wish the media would stop calling it a 'feud'. At this stage it is surely a massacre?
    Had Duck Egg planned to hook up with GH for Christmas?

    You do realise the groups you mentioned have either disbanded, decommissioned or committed themselves to peaceful means?

    I have no idea why one would need to ask them any questions.

    It's not fact that the Provisional IRA for example, have decommissioned, through their political representatives supported the GFA and all that entails and since 2005 stood down their structures?

    The Provos are a part of history and anyone who thinks they are involved in Dublin's gangland is deluded.

    Are you having a laugh.
    The provos are involved in some shape or form of what is going on.
    Probably not with the provo hat on but senior provos are involved in racketeering etc etc etc

    I'm not having a laugh - I'm stating the facts.

    I've also read of no evidence or opinions from any Gardai that anyone connected to provisional republicanism is involved in this latest feud but if you know differently please provide any links, references etc as I would be interested in reading them.

    The sacred good Friday agreement would be tarnished if the garda were to state same.
    Nothing gets done in this city at that level without the ok from those lads.

    Mostly the dissident Republicans that are involved in these turf killings. Those guys view Gerry Adams and all who participated in the Friday Agreement as traitors. You can't link them back to the provos who are firmly involved in constitutional politics.

    No, he's not. The INLA was founded by Seamus Costello and others from the IRA following disagreements over Cathal Goulding's leadership strategy. It's the very definition of an offshoot/splinter organisation.

    Not all provos are tied into constitutional politics.

    What's silly is that you don't think the provos are in anyway shape or form involved in the feud.
    Maybe if the OC is taken out you might reconsider.
