    There was a code word, but apparently not one of the usual ones.

    Did they say 'Recovery' over and over?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,815 ✭✭✭emmetlego


    Is there anything to be said for a cup of tea?

    Lol, I'm not complaining about anything so don't know where you're getting your 5 from. Are you using the FM104 methodology of fact finding?

    Simply pointing out that there's more complaints being made about poor Gerry when he's mentioned than there are when water meters are. I couldn't give a crap either way.

    FM104 are still saying there was a shooting? Are the Gardai trying to suppress the information for a few hours to try to get a handle on the situation? Or FM104 are talking bollix ;)

    Live by the sword, die by the sword and all that.

    Put them in a field and let them tear away at each other I say.

    Ah no, not Anekin?

    No shooting in Tallaght tonight at all. Well apart from the usual, but no bullets connected with anyone. Yet

    I'd say the majority of people involved with this feud have left the country at this stage, probably to Spain, I'd expect some more shootings to go down there in the next couple of weeks.

    If there's a gang war going on why are the protagonists so easy to get to. Have none of these gangsters watched The Godfather. Arn't they supposed to hit the mattresses in time of war.

    Eddie Hutch, a brother of Gerry Hutch aka the Monk, has been shot dead.

    Ah sorry, was studying and only came online the past ten minutes to unmelt my brain :)

    I'd just like to congratulate Dublin gangland on, so far on this occasion, being very accurate.

    You'll continue to maintain (in the main) public support if you just shoot each other, but if at all possible could you please keep it off the main bus routes, it's a bit inconvenient otherwise.

    Also, lads, AKs??! - subtle.

    Would love to know how many of these guys have previous convictions in the double digits, are "well known to Gardai", and in any country with a functioning justice system would be behind bars right now?

    According to some friends of mine there were checkpoints all over Crumlin and Dolphin's Barn earlier. No idea if that was related to this or if they were just random speed traps or whatever, but I got a definite "I'm not leaving my house for the rest of the night" vibe from talking to them.

    It's just so f*cked up that decent people have to put up with this crap. We need mandatory minimum sentences for violent, gang-related crime in Ireland so that the scourge of soft-touch judges will be lessened. Every day you hear of these scumbags walking out of court free because of some hard childhood sob story. If someone is a known gangster then they shouldn't be walking the streets, period.

    The penthouse apartment, the money, the cars, the cocaine, the parties. Hard men doing whatever they wanted and for the most part getting away with it and being both feared and respected by their underlings.

    All that would seem glamorous to the kinds of people who get into that business.

    FFS, Nidge was a hero to most of them!! At the IFTAs, when Tom Vaughn
    Lawlor got out of his car, hordes of young ones were screaming 'Nidge! Nidge!'
    at him. They did not seem to realise he was an actor and came across as
    betrayed when they discovered their 'hero' spoke with a posh accent in 'real
    life'!! 'Love/Hate' was an instruction manual for some of those embarking on
    their life of crime. It's no coincidence that the programme was highly popular
    among prison inmates. :mad:

    I don't think the people who find that lifestyle glamorous are particularly long term planners.

    I doubt they have the IQ to compute that the 'thrilling' life style could end
    up killing them.

    if it's a gang leader he's no loss to society. But the point is that these people think they're in an episode of Love/Hate. Intern the fcukers.


    I agree. Jobsbridge the shite out of the feckers. That'll learn them fairly lively. An honest 40 hours work and an extra 50 quid on top of their dole... :pac:

    Anybody have the interview Gerry Hutch gave to prime time in 2008

    Newstalk quoting a reporter saying the CIRA claim is bull and the gardai knew it was but had to look into it.

    Enda ya clown.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,100 ✭✭✭Hitchens


    anyone remember 'The Blue Flu'?

    Allowing the Gardai to unionise was a big mistake. They are off now with the old 'more resources' refrain.

    Yes, Enda should have talked with Paul Williams before saying anything.
