WTF is wrong with these thugs?

A man has been shot this morning near a creche in the Donaghmede area of Dublin.

The incident took place at approximately 9am on the Holywell Avenue, Gardai have confirmed to independent.ie

The man in question was shot last year and Gardai had warned him his life was in danger.

They are now investigating possible dissident republican links to this morning's shooting.

Gardai are currently at the scene.

If the auld dissident republicans aren't putting themselves on the line for the cause of Irish freedom and a united 32 county socialist republic, they are out protecting children from the drug peddlers. Busy people.

I'm glad you find the attempted murder of a man you don't know who was dropping kids to a creche entertaining.

I have not been shot 100% of the time. Also, 100% of the people who witnessed this didn't deserve that.

Well the shooter probably did

People who are going out to murder someone else probably don't care if children are going to be scared by it.

he wasn't convicted of the murders.
Saying he is wanted is probably a bit much , if the evidence was there he'd be extradited.
So he may be suspected but not guilty.

I know who you are on about and I accept he isn't a nice person but nobody deserves to be shot (or killed like that) on front of their kids.
What did his kid do too warrant seeing his dad shot?
or the other kids either?

I'm kinda middle of the road on criminals shooting each other but doing it at a creche or school is the lowest of the low.

Right hold on here a sec can someone link me to the article that say's he was shot in front of his kids dropping them off at the creche please as i have not seen anything like that in the original post.

FYP.

I'm not sure you need to pass JC remedial English to work for them if you know someone there. God be with the days when kids were given newspapers in English class to read, absorb and assess. Imagine doing it now.

As for the "wanted for two murders" bit, in the last few months John Gilligan has went from the multi millionaire Bill Gates of drug trafficking (from behind bars, no less), to being stone broke lodging in various family homes, hitting up old contacts for unpaid old debts, to now being checked in to a private rehab clinic in England.

I swear the North Korean press has more reliability than our own.

Are you sure it was Ryan?

Edit. It was Smith.

you're a lazy article ... :pac:

http://www.breakingnews.ie/ireland/man-was-shot-in-face-as-he-dropped-off-his-child-at-dublin-creche-625662.html

A man is fighting for his life in hospital after being shot in the face outside a creche in the Donaghmede area of Dublin.
It happened as he was dropping his child off just after 9am.
The victim, a man in his 30s, was dropping his child off at the Little Montsers creche in Donaghmede when a lone gunman approached him.
He was shot in the face before his attacker fled the scene.
The creche is located in the heart of a built-up residential area called Holywell Avenue.
The man was taken to Beaumont Hospital where his condition is described as "serious" and sources say it is hard to tell at this stage if he will survive.
A large area outside the creche has been sealed off and a forensics team arrived a short time ago.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Coolock Garda Station or the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111.

Why would you call a crèche little monsters? You might as well call it little cµnts.

What are you talking about? Its not called little monsters....

FTA69 · 21-03-2014 01:27PM

This fella was involved in a number of dissident Republican groups and was rumoured to have been involved in one killing which involved someone getting decapitated with a shovel.

It really shows you the calibre of some of the armed groups today that they would actually accept someone like this as a member.

It is. It says it in the article. Right there two posts above you.

tinpib · 21-03-2014 01:49PM

Jumping to conclusions there. 'Dropping off' doesn't mean he was holding his child's hand walking them to the creche when he was shot.

He could have 'dropped' his child off walked the possible couple of hundred yards back to his parked car, and quite far away from the kiddies and swings, and was shot just near there.

We don't know the facts.

But 'shot at creche as dropping kids off' is a much better headline and defo the one I would go with if I was working in the Indo.
