    I only saw the DB pic a few days ago for the first time, and I have to say it was harrowing. The expression on his face will stay with me.

    Absolutely, but unfortunately that's the society we live in now.

    Nice picture of makarov silencer. If I was a conspiracy theorist I'd hazard a guess how Padraig is always on scene before they are closed up. He gets some close close shots.

    20 dead & dozens injured in this drug feud & the far-right (and some in the center right) are more worried about a make believe threat from the 60,000 Muslims in Ireland that make up just over 1% of the population.

    I’m not sure what’s more concerning.

    The left/right ****e that’s in almost every other thread seeping in to an already mental thread

    OR

    That we have posters who seem to be very au fait with different brands of silencer

    Both videos seem to come from foreign nationals. Maybe I'm wrong about the 2nd.
    But I'd imagine the intimidation in that estate is just going to make the younger kids less likely to seek out a profession as anything other than a scumbag that has little respect for anyone else, and end up heading an large corporation on either side of the law.
    (I'm aware that the word corporation means everything is legal and above board)

    Confined places mainly as to cut down on excessively loud bangs. They also improve accuracy, so I'd imagine theyre used more often then not you just wouldn't hear of it.

    I think Gareth Hutch was shot using a silencer, also i know Farmer Martin in Finglas was shot using one, that was a crowded pub though in front of dozens of witnesses.

    Clondalkin murder victim David Lynch paid €160,000 to CAB in settlement,

    Gardai have said it is too early to speculate on a motive but one theory is the victim may have been involved in the murder of Mark “The Guinea Pig” Desmond.

    I was just browsing this site (a news aggregator) and started noticing the amount of times Dubai appears.

    There must be a sh*tload of high level criminals from all over the world hiding there. I knew there were some, but now I'm thinking they make up the size of a small suburb.
