So if you wanted someone dead, most people are going to pay someone else to do it, although there is a few who will do it themselves. So off the back of that you have to be someone with access to guns, hitmen and or money for a hit. So straight away that narrows things down. Then you have to actually have a motive to run the risk of doing the hit. In the Canary’s case he had one and fit the bill of all the above. But .... In the case of MD: (1) He was connected with other gangs and violent criminals, the Corbally faction in Ballyer for one. (2)One guy tried to kill him in Memorial Park, missed him...and then wound up buried up the mountains a few months later. (3)MD was very cautious of people trying to kill him dating back to 2000 and the canal murders. (4)MD often carried a weapon and even had one on him when they eventually did hit him...it’s believed he actually went for his gun as they killed him. (5)The man intimidated and terrified even other hard criminals capable of shooting him. Either way he survived extremely long given his nature. He actually survived a few hits. One was in Tallaght at traffic lights about 04. So idea of ‘walking up to a guy and putting a bullet in his head’.....yeah...not that simple. If it was, they would have done it from day one.

Ciro Di Marzio wrote: » Yeah that’s completely right...and like a lot of these big dangerous psychos..in order to actually get him they had to set him up, it wasn’t just an ordinary hit. Similar with Neil Fitzgerald, another big formidable psycho. Couple of others of that type, same scenario. Kieran Keane in limerick they done it to as well. Again more on the point of it not just being a case of walking up to a fella and shooting him in the head. Heads in Dublin and Limerick have been wearing bulletproof vests and operating prepared for hits since the 90’s.

I'd love a glimpse at a few faces behind a few usernames, we definitely have Gardai, lags and Journalists here. What percentage of our user base is the real question!

I'd say the majority of readers are insulated in relatively safe suburbs/rural areas where this stuff is completely alien and we don't know people or multiples of people that have shot or been shot.

I asked did anyone know of links between the Hutch crew and Christy Griffins mob as they both operated similar area. It’s something I often wondered over the years. In my gangland fantasy mind I want to believe Mago the King would have nothing to do with a dirty rapist like Griffin hahaha. I know Christy and Monk would have known each other back in the old school alright.
