    At point blank range you aim for the head. Always aim for the head.

    Ah ****é, does this mean we are all going to have to listen to that egomanic idiot Paul Williams pretending on every radio and TV station that he knows who was behind it but he just cant tell ?
    organized crime has caused huge misery to this country, but the worst thing it inflicted on this nation was that idiot Williams.

    Just to be clear, you are happy with this kind of justice being carried out in residential housing estates full of innocent families, at 7pm in the evening, with gunmen who would probably think nothing of shooting witnesses dead or endangering lives during their getaway?

    Na, that's dangerous.
    As I said earlier, bring the scum to some bogland and dispatch him there.

    John Gilligan has been shot in Clondalkin in Dublin this evening.
    The crime boss was blasted three times in the chest by a gunman when he answered the door.
    It's believed he was visiting his brother's house in Greenfort Crescent in Clondalkin when the attacked occured.
    He is believed to be in a critical condition.

    The Sunday World would have to add a bit to the story, It said in one of the more reputable papers that he was responsive. I doubt he would be responsive if he was shot in the head and chest, one maybe, not both

    No doubt he will be on Marian Finucane in the morning with the inside scoop. Odious individual.

    He and the Independent are great for their "sources"

    If you think he just did a wee bit of mport/export of hash then you really know nothing

    I never claimed that's all he ever done. It's others who are making unsubstantiated claims. He was acquitted of murder and sentenced to 28 years for importing cannabis... those are facts.

    If you can show that he done more than that then please do so.

    I'd say Williams has a horn the size of a vuvuzeula on him right now...

    Wow, someone really didn't like the end of Breaking Bad.

    So he's been shot once, twice or three times, in the chest, or head, or both, on the jacks while answering the door.

    I'll wait.

    Yes, and it will be the penguin this, the polar bear that, and the snowman the other.

    I should have bought that brand instead of Tommy Hilfigger.

    Certainly not while on the jacks. Thats not advisable whether you are a drug dealer or not.

    Coincidentally, last night I had a dream there was a hitman at my door, it was a lucid dream so I attempted a backflip to dodge a bullet but just ended up doing a faceplant. Then I beat the sh*te out of him after an intense struggle.

    Thankfully Gilligan's incident didn't go the same way.

    Hearing Gilligan's condition is now not life threatening. Shot in chest, leg and a graze to the head. Lucky boy


    Terrible shooting :( How can you miss from so close?

    Hope it hurts!

    Did he have a name for Gilligan?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,301 ✭✭✭The One Who Knocks


    I'd just like to confirm that it was NOT me.

    Unfortunately the b*stard used a doorbell so I was powerless to do anything.

    Bet he doesn't have that stupid sneer on his face tonight, no sympathy for the prick.
