I always wondered who watched those TV3 crime bollox shows and loved the Sunday World. Apparently they're all in this thread idolising the thug life.

Drugs again Somebody has to tackle this problem, We had internment before and the druggies are every bit as bad now as the republicans were before so lock them all up before they drive the tourists and the multinationals away.

Really? I've only seen one person here who appears to have idolised the thug life.

They can't say they weren't warned?

It's pretty gold tbh. I especially liked this comment.

even though most of them drink water since they're probably extremely paranoid

Good to see the organized crime group they belong aren't bigoted towards the LGBT community truely we're progressing to an equal society. Except of course for the people they killed.

You mean more than that watch those TV3 shows? I'm shocked and stunned, in equal parts.

I'm guessing this sounded great in your head when you decided to write a witty remark about how the gun men dressing as women, but unfortunately your level of alcohol consumption has completely f*cked it up.

Maybe the two Kinahan brothers were the target. Remember their gang has killed a number of Dublin criminals over the past couple of years so there's bound to be people out there looking for revenge.

The deceased is an erstwhile friend of mine, the killing of Gary Hutch is the catalyst for this. I predict 2016 will see more 'gangland' blood letting than at least the past decade.

You just know the dude absolutely wanted to wear a dress and wig regardless.

Your post comes across in a really bad way, it's almost as if you admire those criminals who did this

I actually do admire this one in a way. I pulled up short in my previous post of saying that it was nearly good to see old school, smart gangsters again. Instead of jumped up coke fueled idiots. There will always be gangsters. I like The Monk. He has a bit of honesty about him. Not like Jim Mansfield - the "auld fella", who bought everyone. Watch as this thread gets shut down.

Yeah, thank God the old school 'honest' gangsters are back. The landscape of Ireland was starting to become unrecognizable without them.

So you like him, as he's not a drug dealer, but a good old fashioned gangster a la the Krays?

That's like my OH who once had Gerry drive him to the airport, say that he seemed like a nice fella, or me saying that the former bomber I used work with was a reformed character who gave me the chance to get the skills I needed to start out in a decent job in the nineties, without questioning what they were doing.

At least Jim Mansfield allowed people the chance to live their life.

You like Gerry. Ironic, given that his nickname is allegedly due to his clean living.

Yet today if ongoing speculation is true, he has chosen to end the life of one young man, and curtail that of another two.

Plenty to like there alright.

I always liked "Fats McGarnagle" myself, back when he ran the numbers racket he always looked out for the poor dames turning tricks out on da street

He made his money the hard way.

The hard way?

Try working for a living mate.

The Hard Way? Too lazy and undisciplined to get a real job so he turns to crime. Don't give me the "it's where he's from" thing - I'm sympathetic to people who have had a hard upbringing - have friends who fought their way out of poverty and made something of themselves. But they're not criminals - and they don't go around firing guns in hotels and endangering the lives of everyone there. These f*cking numbskulls are thugs so they can f*ck right off with that "made their money the hard way" nonsense so they can!

Off to jail with the lot of them and there won't be a tear shed by decent people for them either.

The hard way?

P*ss off.

Some f*cking people! Thinking a low life gangster is somehow a saint because he doesn't sell drugs. P*ss right off so he can.

A man that can go out and earn a living without resorting to the easy route of crime - that's someone to be admired. THAT'S the hard way. Slogging it out, getting up at the crack of dawn to go to a terrible job because you have responsibilities. Working your way up and taking time to improve yourself and invest in your future and the future of your children. That's the hard way.

Running around thinking you're in a f*cking gangster movie, thinking you're a hard man because you can pay someone else to kill your enemies? That's not the hard way - that's the moron's way. These guys aren't admirable - they're laughable dangerous thugs who only people with limited intelligence look up to.

The hard way?

They wouldn't know the hard way if it p*ssed on their shoes so they wouldn't.

Agree but sadly in Ireland they do get admired,so much so that the national broadcaster pays homage to them and glorifies them,so until that mentality changes there will always be this problem.

I doubt it was laziness that led Gerry Hutch down the path he took tbh

I do actually admire Gerry. I admire him a lot more than Jim Mansfield who flew hundreds of millions of drugs into the country through his private airport while he paid off politicians.

He was done. He had retired to the Canaries. He was forced out of retirement by some gob****es. But he is a different class.
