    Sunday world source was it?

    It's amazing people know how the media works expecially over the last few years with all the goings on with the government, and just believe anything printed still.

    Who knows it might be true but it might be complete bs.

    It's very irresponsible journalism if it's not true though. Not that I'm saying much about journalist in this sector, but it's quite a precise fact to blast on the front of a paper without any sort of truth behind it. You can imagine that all this would do would was increase the level of confusion and mayhem which currently exists.

    In saying that, I'd be surprised if it wasn't more than just a coincidence. Wasn't an attempt made on his life in October last year, before any of the recent Kinehan/Hutch feud escalated?

    Turns out it is pretty much just a headline writer trying to get people in. The car was registered to a company set up by Kinehans (assuming to launder a bit of cash). Something which probably happened years ago, and probably doesn't have any relevance to the background at all.

    It's great we can pull all these extra resources for policing funerals out of our ass, yet extra resources can't be found for stopping crime
    Great chance for the Guards to get some close up surveillance do you not think?

    yes, it was probably just a communal vehicle for bringing people to mass. I doubt any connections. Sure they'd have probably lent it to me, only I didn't ask ;)

    Great chance for the gardai to bring a lot of them in for questioning the morning of the funeral and stop the circus . Pictures of alan ryans funeral/year anniversary show people with uncovered faces in military garb. I haven't seen one yet being charged with being part of the ira etc.

    At that funeral the "ira" were stopping and searching cars in the area and the gardai let them

    surveillance, surmeilance at this stage, they know full well who's involved.


    Have the guys with the uncovered faces running from the recency been arrested yet?

    I'd be surprised if some of the hutch's weren't driving cars registered to a company which was set up by the Kinehans to be fair.

    This is what the state needs to do :
    - evacuate the Aran Islands over the next month. Pay the islanders handsomely to move to the mainland
    - take every gang member of the Kinahan/Hutch/Ryan/Keane-Collopy/McCarthy-Dundon gangs, and deport them to the Aran Islands
    - suspend all links to the mainland
    - any helicopters that fly over the Aran Islands get blown out of the sky with a bazooka
    - provide them with whatever ammunition they need
    - give them food and water
    - let them blow the sh1t out of each other
    - after 6 months, come back and monitor the situation. Whoever is left alive, can go home
    - any more gangland activity, and repeat the process again
    That there are so many fooking gangs and that they are so blatant is a Disgrace to the Gardai and the "Government"

    Guards would be doing themselves no favours making arrests on the morning of a funeral.

    Wearing "military garb" isn't proof of membership of an illegal organisation.

    Ya can't charge someone with membership because they're wearing a costume!

    He will be before the courts soon facing serious charges.He cant be named because of this impending trial.they think that if hes outed in the media he wont get a fair trial.

    Ill be very surprised if hes still alive before he gets to sentencing.

    I was trawling through all the stories and articles I could find to try to figure who "Mr. Big" was, and that fits with the surname of who I had figured was my main suspect, but a few articles seemed to imply that he was involved in a gang 'with' Mr. Big. Hmmmm...

    the ira gave him a military funeral for thier fallen comrade, it would be logical to think that's those in military uniform providing the guard of honor are involved.

    You can't arrest someone because it's logical their involved in something. I'm not sure how you could even think that works on any level.

    Maybe he has changed his name by Deed Poll to Mr Big.... otherwise how would anybody that owes him money ever find him ! !

    These guys don't carry IRA membership cards. if they are parading about doing guard of honors they are representing themselves as part of the group and therefore should be neutralised

    Interesting discussion about this in the last segment with Joe Duffy on Liveline today, Joe got fairly wound up. Apparently there was alot of talk on FM104 last night but I cant find anything online.

    Also
    Antoin O'Hara, a former H-Block blanketman, pays tribute to his friend Vinnie Ryan who was fatally injured in a gun attack in Dublin yesterday.

    Vinnie Ryan, who did not use drugs, did not drink, who was a proud father of a baby infant, a beloved son and brother, a devoted partner to Kelly, died last night 6 hours after being shot in Finglas, Dublin.

    Only a few hour after he was shot, the “esteemed” journalist Nicola Tallant was interviewed by Matt Cooper on today FM radio (Listen from 6.30).

    Without even mentioning Vinnie's name, she proceeded to 'wing it' on any questions she was asked, and concocted nonsense as she went along: going back and forth about his brother Alan who was ''in a Feud' with local North side Drug gangs, trying to ''extort money from them''. In other words, starting a smear campaign before Vinnie had even died!

    She may be forgiven as she is following the lies that churn out from the Garda press, or the spin doctors in FG and FF. Following like a sheep, why did she not question her sources? Because if she investigated the truth and published it - she would be cut off.

    I had the privilege of knowing both Alan (also a non-drinker or drug user) and Vinnie.

    Both became members of Oglaigh Na hEireann - to fight to achieve Freedom for the 32 counties of Ireland by whatever means necessary, including force of arms - Inspired by Pearse and Connolly 100 years ago.

    As they planned and trained, they seen the devastation that drugs were playing on the youth of Dublin. Rather than sit idly by, they tried to stop it. That brought them into conflict with those that supply and peddle the drugs. Their action was not for personal gain, not to extort money from anyone - an unselfish attempt to help their community.

    As casualties started to appear the Establishment went into to overdrive to demonise.

    Because they have been doing it for the past 80 years they continue not to give any credit to Republicans that oppose the status quo - especially Republican Socialists.

    The ''Alan Ryan Gang'' - as if it was rival drug fighting each other. In other words, the state trying to Criminalise.

    Then the journalists jumping on the bandwagon and falling over themselves to embrace and enhance the state fed lie. That pertains today - is there not any journalist that has the decency or conviction to investigate the lie machine from the Gardaí?

    Vinnie Ryan, Freedom fighter RIP

    near enough :

    Civil Authorities (Special Powers) Act

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/august/9/newsid_4071000/4071849.stm

    The Prime Minister of Northern Ireland, Brian Faulkner, has introduced a new law giving the authorities the power to indefinitely detain suspected terrorists without trial.
