    Makes you wonder where to go to escape the drug violence of Ireland...

    The man shot in Spain early this afternoon has been named as Patrick Doyle, 27, from Portland Row in north inner city Dublin.

    The Spanish police arrived at the scene in Espotona on the Costa Del Sol to find a four-wheeled drive vehicle with five gunshots. Four in the windscreen, and one in the front passenger door.

    The victim was travelling in the passenger seat. When the shots were fired, the driver lost control of the car and crashed into a lampost.

    The passenger got out and was shot twice in the head.

    The driver, Gary Hutch, was injured but fled the scene.

    The dead man is believed to be involved in the feuding gangs in the Crumlin / Drimnagh area of Dublin.

    Just don't get involved in the first place tbh. I never have to worry about where I can and can't go.

    No need for the question mark in the title as well. It was another drug killing and he probably deserved it.

    tut tut yawn.

    At least there were no bystanders mowed down.

    I see one of the Gerry McCabe shooters was released yesterday. Any wonder that drug related crime is so high profile (no pun). The legal system does not have any effective deterrents against the potential profit margins from drug related crime (without breaching human rights/civil liberties). Reduction of demand will never completely eliminate it.
    Regulate it.
    Then you might be free of the scourge of drugs.

    Or

    Just don't go near nightclubs, pub toilets, parties, concerts, music festivals, pharmacies, Hospitals, Clinics, Coffeeshops, Head shops, colleges, Hippies, or people that you suspect might be hippies. Your illusion of a drug free world will survive if you can manage it :D

    Another tragic loss of a young man with so much to live for. A lad with his whole life before him cruelly snatched from the bosom of his loving family. He will be sadly missed by his many friends and work colleagues. Just thinking about his passing is bringing a lump to my throat as I type. I'm sure we all feel the same.

    Nope. Some mentaler might chop off your hand with a samurai sword.

    So we know that the 3 people in the car are allegedly involved in the Crumlin / Drimnagh feud yet none of them are from those areas! :eek:

    Talk about the meeja knocking an area without foundation!

    Costa Del Sol is a dangerous place, any Irish person that goes there to make some business always ends up brown bread. Costa Del Sol is full of drugs,prostitution,robbery,drinking,english people and gangs, not a nice place...:rolleyes:

    Can't say I'm too cut up about this.

    I wonder was it to do with something he did over here or in Spain though.

    Over there.

    Apparently he kept leaving his towel on the sun lounger closest to the bar and then not coming down till midday. He drove them to it.

    No, they just knew each other from the monastery.
