    Still can't do links with change of laptop but this is actually a headline from The Irish Independent.

    It's a rather unusual slant to put on the earlier reports I've read about 5 masked men attacking targets which included a car, a house and any occupants there in.

    Does the person that wrote this headline think we were all hit with slash hooks on the head when we were 12 and if it wasn't meant it is somehow a bit forgivable?

    Once you mention "slash hook", we know that we can't talk about this.

    Seems someone in the office was paying attention and heard you OP.

    The last thing I’d have an issue with in that story is the headline. Obviously the victim wasn’t the intended victim:

    The gang were searching for a male who was not present at the scene when the attack began – and the masked men fled the scene when they realised that the child had been injured.

    The girl seems to be getting better which is good news.. Those ratbags should be hauled before the courts and sent away for a long time but they won't. The circus goes around and around and society has to deal with these degenrates time after time walking out of court smiling.

    I'd love if we could get a new prison built to be able to give proper sentences for violent criminals like this (regardless of ethnic background). They are making life a misery for everyone decent who comes near them. I still think of that poor man killed at the funeral in Kerry who didn't want to feud with anyone. The decent man gone and the perpetrators get to live on. And all over them not respecting the wishes of a young girl (his daughter) regarding her choice of husband.

    Gardai have said they now think they know the identity of two of the attackers involved and have appealed to the public for any help they can give to bring those responsible to justice.

    The little girl is doing well after emergency surgery for a suspected bleed to the brain.

    The prosecution were correct to describe what happened as medieval, but the defence objected strongly.

    I doubt they'll grass on their own but I hope they are all caught and charged with attempted murder, that poor girl, traumatised for life

    I couldn't imagine that the type of people capable of carrying out something like this would be worried about how others view them. I'd say there's nothing they wouldn't stoop to, grassing on accomplices included.

    I don't know if it's connected but it's a huge coincidence and surely be to God whoever is shooting at a moving vehicle from a moving vehicle on a busy road is going to be a top priority for the Gardai to track down.

    I read somewhere that the Gardai believe the Charleville attack was in retaliation for an aggravated burglary in Patrickswell that happened on August 9th. In this dawn attack a number of men armed with slash hooks attacked 2 men in the house and one victim received a severe laceration to a hand.

    Part of the problem with these incidents is being sentenced to jail doesn't seem to frighten the culprits. I was talking to a lad that was locked up in Cork prison for a couple of weeks not so long ago and he had his own private cell with an ensuite, a phone in the cell (limited to call 2 approved numbers), all the channels on his TV, full gym facilities, workshops, library and a different menu everyday that would rival any decent restaurant. He said all he was short was his girlfriend and he would happily live there for the rest of his life.

    Jail time is water off a duck's back for them, a mild inconvenience. No job to be worried about losing.
