Shooting in Limerick

DarkJager

Just heard on the news there, that a man was "shot" last night in Limerick. However the gardai are saying it was "accidental" and the man, who is known to gardai, seemed to have shot himself in the head (by accident). That's what you get for being a low IQ scumbag and playing with guns. Now if they could all accidentally cap themselves in the head, we'd be on to a winner.

Thats a rubbish story. Russian Roulette, with a gloch?

The Sunday World reported today that the life support machine will be turned off after family return from Spain.The RSU have the video of how it happened on a mobile phone.

old boy

probably on a life support machine, getting the body ready for the removal of organs for transplanting, just awaiting the harvesters.

Excuse the pun. :rolleyes:

I'd imagine the police know who all the "heads" are anyway, so unless trouble kicked off at the funeral, nothing much should happen.

apparently he took the magazine out but did not know there was a round in the chamber, then blew his head off, priceless!

I am loving all the speculation!! Not much in the news about it. Tempted to go to the funeral for want of something to do!

Of course the guards know who all the "HEADS" are but it hasnt made any difference up to now.One man has been seen around the regional in his black tinted audi,an innocent man was killed in his place only recently.

They should make more weapons like these glochs that have hidden bullets in the chamber. then a shop in town that sells them. but you have to have a special scumbag low IQ to purchase them. Then in the instruction manual, it should say, "first thing to do before using your gloch is to clean the barrell. Take out the ammunition in the chamber then point the barrell of the pistol towards your mouth. at this stage you should pull the trigger to make sure there are no blockages". definetly no blockages in-between those ears anyway. - In a coule of weeks, Headlines - "Limerick city voted cleanest and safest place in Ireland".

I'd want to be fairly badly off for something to do than to go to a mass for a **** like that and pretend to be paying my respects. I can only imagine how the famililies of recent innocent victims would react to that, be it "for the craic or not"

It's being claimed on Aertel that Gardai are saying he was showing someone how to kill a person when it happened - and they have the phone with the video footage seized. Hopefully whoever was being shown will be incriminated by the footage and face a nice stint behind bars. Whoever had the phone and let the Gardai know he filmed it must be some dope as well. Yer man was a major player, so big funeral I'd say

I am of the opinion that this incident just goes to show that karma does exist.

I'll just leave it at that.

Leave me out of this!:p

The Gardai were passing the door of the house when it happened so they probably didn't even have time to hide anything and phones would be one of the first things the Gardai would seize in an episode like this. Plus I'd be pretty keen to let everyone know that I had footage of him doing it to himself and that it wasn't me that pulled the trigger.

Twelve shots were fired illegally as Collopy was taken to the church last night.there were guards present but they turned a blind eye to it.Who or what will that gun be used for next??Could the guards not have even been seen to make some sort of move.I no it was a funeral,but with the record of gun crime you would think they would want as many guns off the street as possible.It looks very bad on the guards behalf.
