    This is getting out of control, people can't even enjoy a relaxing bank holiday weekend without someone being shot dead in broad daylight in their housing estate. Any ideas who it was?

    I'd rather the criminals kill each other off tbh.

    I wouldn't. What happens when innocent people get killed in the crossfire? I think I'd prefer if people weren't getting shot dead near my house where children could be out playing or anything.

    This is exactly like this Adams fiasco. If you didn't want to have to check yourself into Antrim Barracks before an election, you shouldn't have dabbled in murdering people for a few decades.

    Live by the sawn-off shot gun, die by the sawn-off shot gun.

    was it a shot gun or a whaling harpoon?

    The people using their illicit products financed the murder.

    It's hardly Mexico OP. Things were much worse here when the celtic tiger was in full swing.

    Really, so they deal in illegal drugs and such for what exactly?

    The money comes from the drug users, who do not want to accept they are funding these killings.

    I don't condone shooting them either, a nuke would be more efficient.

    Too true.

    Shane Geoghan.

    Anthony Campbell.

    Too many have been injured in pubs/clubs/homes etc.

    Great argument for legalisation of drugs. Well done.
