    take a walk down the broadwalk some evening , or afternoon or even some morning and see if you think those creatures are healthy

    He didn’t say there weren’t unhealthy, he’s saying they weren’t made illegal because they were unhealthy.

    Illegal or legal, you will still have the same people down at the boardwalk.

    Any notion that coke or heroin should be made legal is absurd. I think people suggesting that need to give their head a shake. Cannabis maybe, I have no time for it myself but there is a serious case there. Anything more than that, no chance.

    Why not? Your brain is your brain. If you want to poison yourself for a short term gain, that's your decision - nobody else's. I choose to poison myself once a week or so by having more pints than I probably should with my friends, because the short term effects are in my view well worth the price of possibly not living as long. Why should it be any different if people choose to use opiates to dull whatever emotional trauma they're dealing with in life?

    Drug dealers are scumbags when they get involved in violent crime. Drug dealers who just sell substances for personal use to people who are looking for them, are merely satisfying a natural demand.

    Another violent drug dealer eulogized as "led astray" "a good boy at heart", "from a good family", our attitude to these people is ridiculous.

    By all accounts of people I have met today that knew him, none say he was a scumbag, and that's not just them refusing to speak ill of the dead. It may also be the reason he owed so much.
    He may also have been seen as a soft target.

    Driving an x5 and holidaying in Dubai without a visible income.Doesn't seem like he was trying his best to pay off any "accidental " debts he got himself in to.

    240 hours community service for being caught with €3000 of coke. What’s he to fear?

    Zach cut my hair a few times. We just talked about his car and random stuff. To me, he was a nice lad. He was also a customer in a shop I work in and was well-liked by my staff.
    Looks like he fell for the old get rich quick trick so many kids are drawn into.

    It's sad to see this happen. RIP

    which also happens

    Rarely happens. A slug or two to the back of the head usually ends it. Dealers chasing debts from the family of the man murdered is extremely rare. So called 'republicans' however specialise in this.

    Unrelated to this latest murder but I hear there was a shooting in Clondalkin on Sunday night, with several shots fired through the windscreen at a takeaway delivery driver. A case of mistaken identity apparently and a miracle he wasn't hurt. Terrifying that an innocent man doing his job can be shot at and it barely gets a mention.

    I knew him growing up and he was a nice kid. Cycling around on his chopper with my brother in the estate. In my house at my brothers birthday's so on. Just looking at photo's this evening of him playing in newbridge farm having fun. It's heartbreaking. I hadn't seen him for a few years now. So yeah he did indeed go down the wrong road.

    Some strong rumours it's a very significant target. Only stuff on Twitter, mind.

    Saw something on Twitter saying victim was from the area so doesn’t look like it’s connected to the Feud

    Man and woman arrested following €500K drugs bust in Drimnagh.

    The Special Crime Task Force and National Drugs and Organised Crime unit smashed the stash after searching a house in Drimnagh late last night.

    Heroin, cannabis, and cocaine were all found by gardai who were targeting an organised gang based in the area.

    The man, 37, and woman, 55, are being detained in Crumlin while gardai say the investigation is ongoing.

    The surname is that of one of the outfits in drogheda trying trying to wipe each other out.. So it's possible. Although it's a fairly common name so probably coincidental.

    No, someone from the other side if it's connected.
