Also said that undercover gardai do attend events he was involved with and the ARU unit have been at the National Stadium before. A bit chilling to hear the news tonight after our chat today. Hopefully no bystanders are injured. I also hate people saying 'let the scumbag just kill each other' as they are not all scumbags as any distant family member is now a target but also it would be very traumatising for people at tonight's event to witness a shooting, especially kids. Sometihng has to be done to stop it.

Klinkhammer wrote: » No, it's not terrible at all. Not sure why it's these lads though. I'd argue that it's probably the safest street in Dublin City centre so surely a couple of normal Garda on foot patrolling would suffice. I've never seen so much as a slap being dealt out in well over a decade drinking there.
