    We barely have enough prison space as it it.


    Prison is a big industry in the States, lot of jobs and money to be made.

    Prisons the world over have never worked, nor will ever work, it only makes them worse and to network with other criminals/gangs.

    So more prisons isn't the answer or the solution to the illegal/legal drugs trade.

    All the politicians, crying about the shooting outside a school, for a bit exposure in the press, utterly facking useless.

    Actually the opposite, when criminals are kept out of prisons and/or released en masse like in cities like Seattle, it's chaos.

    Two brothers shot at.
    Same two brothers been running amok the last few years.

    Who are these exactly? And who is the 37 year old said to be involved?

    The media like to describe anything that happens in Blanch involving people of a certain age as remnants of the Westies. They've had more last stands than ISIS.

    Guessing the name begins with H and ends with N

    One of them tried to rob a beauty salon in Corduff a few years ago but a customer recognized him and smashed a yankee candle over his head.

    I see that the alleged associations between the Mansfield family and criminality have surfaced again. Dessie O'Hare assaulted and falsely imprisoned a family in an attempted eviction. He said that he was hired by Jim Mansfield Jr. This poor Mansfield family - can they ever get a break! They just seem to be plagued by innuendo. It's almost as if their political connections can't protect them anymore.

    Honestly don't care anymore, we've had it woefully lopsided in favour of criminals for decades, let the scales tip against them now.

    Do we know if this is the usual suspects?

    'Young girl's face cut after attack by group of teens in South Dublin'

    Ah, I misread that.

    Pity, just *another* gang of scumbags then. I wish it had been the same so I could assure myself there's not as many as I think there is.
