    The suspected shooter of Garda Colm Horkan has been named in the media.

    Apparently he stood over the Garda after the shooting & made no attempt to flee.

    The 43 year old mechanic SS was doing push ups while in custody earlier today and has minor convictions, including for road traffic and public order, and was involved in half a dozen mental health incidents, garda sources said.

    15 rounds from the Sig Sauer handgun? I didn't think they held more than 11 rounds & maybe one more in the breech?

    That's so sad on both sides of the situation.

    Very sad for all involved.

    I wonder if he will go to prison or the central mental hospital (which last I heard it was at full capacity).

    Shouldn't that say

    "I haven't seen it reported anywhere, but allegedly Stephen Silver shouted "Black Lives Matter" before shooting Garda Colm Horkan dead in Castlerea. This American violence is seeping into global consciousness."And maybe follow up with "I heard it from my cousin who is friends with the sister of a Garda that listened to the audio from his unit."


    They are also looking for the person that took the photos/video last night, maybe Tae Guevara knows who that is and saw the video

    I have no idea, it's Tae Guevara's Tweet, take it up with him.

    It was reported on RTE tonight that Gardai are satisfied they have tracked down the person behind the photo/video.

    No, I know, wasn't accusing you of it. I just thought the tweet was bit stupid for a couple of reasons.

    It could even be true, but I find it hard to believe that he shouted that out after a scuffle and then shot at him 15 times.

    I'm sure it will all come out eventually? So many lives devastated for nothing it would seem.

    He didn’t think twice about murdering the Garda so he definitely needs to be locked up forever. A scene from a nightmare played out in what I’d say was ultra quick. Wouldn’t say the Garda knew anything much he was killed so quickly I’d say. Absolutely scum of the earth to murder a man in cold blood like that.

    If there was a scuffle then that would mean it was in warm, not cold blood.

    Are all these Garda seizures actually achieving anything?

    Guess it keeps drug use down and prices up

    Every seizure has to relax the pressure in communities and town centres.
    Plentiful supply causes havoc in my opinion as the junkies can be seen on the streets 24 hours a day.

    That was my thinking

    Usage goes up with unrestricted supply, think I read that

    From what I hear there is a bit of a shortage of green, but everything else is available. I'd imagine the demand for white is right down, and maybe when we start getting back to normal there might be a shortage.

    Seizures rarely if ever effect supply
    By there own reckoning they only get 10 %of gear,if you believe that
    Price of coke doesn't go up or down with any seizures,weed steady price too
    When you think about it they can't stop drugs getting into prisons,even tough no **** prisons,so how can they stop it in a porous country

    There is a shortage of green only because it's been smoked so much in lockdown,not because of any seizures

    What’s Mr Big at these days? He went from being in the papers non stop to vanishing like a ghost

    I saw him out for a walk near his gaff during the warm weather. With his shirt off, Staff terrier on a lead and mott in a fancy tracksuit, he even looked like a dealer from a hundred yards out-I recognised him as I walked past.

    Amazing that he walks around like that, surely there are gangs everywhere that would love to take him out?

    That’s gas haha, if I was a high profile gangster like that id have a treadmill bought so I would’nt have to leave the house. What is it with gangsters and staff terriers/ pit bulls ? Is it a common necessity amongst them

    No idea but I doubt anything major like that would have taken place at the height of the lockdown-this was when there was almost zero traffic and checkpoints everywhere.
