    That accurately describes most "big" criminals.

    He is pure old school apparently, helps where he can, got young guys debts called off even wiped or paid himself, apparently staunchly anti drug sale and use.

    He is pure old school apparently,..........

    If you knew what "old school" actually entailed, you wouldn't be writing that as a compliment. I'd suggest taking up fiction writing. Jesus knows paul williams made enough off of it.

    I’m not very au fait with these crime figures, but had heard that he was an up-and-coming figure in the Dublin underworld. Came from a really solid middle class family, but fell in with the wrong crowd. Meant to be very violent when he was off his head on moon biscuits. Surely the costa del crime isn’t the best place for him if he’s fallen foul of the K-Crew? Is that not their base of operations?

    Yeah, that's right. Beanso was an diamond bloke as a young fella. Was actually a talented kid, good footballer and was close to making the Dublin minor team. Coulda had a swell life if things hadda turned out different.

    He got in with a group of bad hombres. Before you knew the kid was hooked on the devils dandruff. Ended up in the big house after taking the rap for one of the gunsels higher up the chain cause he wasn't no stool pigeon.

    People on the streets say he's gone to the costa, but that's not literal. It's a metaphor for laying low. Catch my drift?

    old school,
    having or adhering to old-fashioned values or ways.

    he robbed banks, he was doing the public a service, before we knew we needed,the monks services, a visionary so to speak, ahaha.

    where is the best place for my fiction writing, and how do i monetize my stories for maximum profit?

    That’s a shame. Lot of these guys are former street urchins who had 6 stints in the slammer by the time they could buy a rummy a drink in the local speakeasy. The street crews anyway. Beans mustn’t be any regular pilchard.

    Anyways, it’s about time the Sweeney start playing hard ball with the K-Crew and their associates.

    Why would you actively support them though. They're a drain on society. Why not just take an interest?

    To be fair, a lot of people believe that whoever fires the first unprovoked shot in a dispute is automatically the worse of the two regardless of what comes after. To people who believe that, the fact that the first victim of this feud was a Hutch killed by the Kinahans for something he apparently didn't actually do, means that the Kinahans are automatically the bigger bad guys here and the Hutches are the more righteous of the two (in that context, given that their hit on the Regency was motivated by vengeance for their relative and not simply unprovoked, senseless violence).

    It's not PC and it goes against what most Irish people are taught about vengeance, forgiveness, two wrongs don't make a right etc, but I think on a fundamental level a lot of people still believe this to at least some extent. As a kid, if someone is caught fighting with their sibling their instinctive justification is "but he hit me first". On some level, a lot of people regard whoever starts a fight as the person more deserving of getting their ass kicked in it.

    Most people I know who aren't from either of the areas involved would tend to sympathise more with the Hutches for this reason - because if the media narrative is true (and one of the reasons I hesitate to form an opinion on which side is worse than the other is because I have a huge mistrust of the media's accuracy in reporting these feuds), then the Kinahans started the war by killing a Hutch for no reason at all, and therefore the Regency hit was just desserts for them.

    Personally, I don't know anyone involved and I have years of first hand experience of how the media distorts reality, so I'm not inclined to assume anything at all is true about this conflict - hence my post a few pages ago about the deceased David Byrne's avengers being more their own crew with their own resources and agenda, than simply "people who take orders from the Kinahans" as the media portray them.

    gary hutch killed 24 September 2015 after a deal was struck.

    Were the earlier incidents connected to the current feud? I'm pretty bad with keeping track of the names of everyone involved, especially since the press seem to muddy the waters so much in order to make it look like a binary "one side vs the other" kind of thing. But my point is, because of the media (whether this is true or not I don't know), the perception among a lot of people is that the Kinahans started it by killing Gary Hutch, and that the Regency attack, as horrific as it was, being vengeance for the earlier attack made the Kinahans ultimately responsible for it and the bloodshed which follows.

    Again not a viewpoint I'd share because I'm pretty sure the media is oversimplifying something far more complex than "one family vs the other", but your average random newspaper reader with no connection to anyone "in the know" is more likely in my experience to regard the Kinahan faction as the unprovoked aggressors and the Hutch faction as the aggrieved victims hellbent for revenge. That's just the way it is when there's rampant media speculation and very little official word other than whatever sells papers in the morning.

    It's basically an expanded version of the "if he threw the first punch, I've no sympathy that he got the sh!te kicked out of him" attitude to stories about drunken fights outside pubs at the weekends. People have a tendency to pick sides in news stories and people also have a tendency to try to identify the person who started the fight - even if the person who punched back did more damage. Hell, there were similar comments over the Club Annabelle killing, suggesting that the deceased had been one of the people who started on one of the other lads for no reason and thus somehow "had it coming" when the other guy's friends all jumped on him and ultimately kicked him to death. Not pleasant, but that's how a lot of people think.

    As for you supporting the Hutch side of the gang in this campaign it doesn't make sense to think othat it's the Monk and his gang versus the Kinehan Cartel. His family members were involved with the cartel until it went pear shaped.
    The extended Hutch family and friends were part of the cartel for years.

    Hardly an innocent bystander. This is from the independent the other day.


    Nathan Hutch (24) is understood to have “gone mental” following the brutal execution of brother Derek (27), who was blasted a number of times in the head and body, the Herald is reporting.

    Senior investigators say Derek Hutch drove to the halting site with his two associates to throw a parcel of drugs over the prison wall. While Derek stayed with the car, his associates made their way to the rear of the site which backs on to the prison.

    They then made contact with Nathan Hutch by phone to inform him the drop was taking place. Nathan Hutch is believed to have an illegally held phone in prison.

    he was killed in the white Toyota aygo, the two others were at the wall, doing whatever so he was totally innocent, just because they were delivering whatever that he knew, but that should not matter he was killed simply because of his name.

    i knew who you were on about, i need no names, a horrible crime against a good decent hard working family man, who was nice and obliging to everyone he meet.

    i was on about this latest murder, he wasnt a scumbag or gangbanger but certainly did wrong in his life and didnt shy away from it either. this guy was innocent too hes name got him killed.

    well if I thought thousands had been murdered in the supply of a "goods or service" to me irrespective of its legality, I'd certainly review whether its morally acceptable to continue consuming that "goods or service".
    That the "goods or service" is actually illegal in most countries, and having regard to the history of the creation and supply of that "goods or service", would certainly would have me questioning whether my continued consumption of that "goods or service" renders me in some way morally responsible for these thousands of deaths. But anyway, we're not talking about a "goods or service", we're talking about cocaine.
    Where its estimated one person dies in Colombia for every g snorted in UK.

    So while you're whatabouting, have you an example of thousands being murdered in the course of supplying my A5? I'd certainly consider an alternative next time I'm getting a phone...

    And as you're strawmanning, I'm not referring to the innocent man murdered for having the "wrong" name. The point made, seemingly lost, is whether users of cocaine in Dublin are in anyway responsible for these deaths.

    i put that up today without mentioning the star or his brother, a mod removed it and i thought i deleted it and put it up again, removed by a mod again with a post about not speculating, i didnt speculate and said id get the article, still no reply to it from the mod.

    i do understand that the mod was taking precautions because the 'star' can afford good legal people and it would just cost boards.ie money to defend it, so easier option is to delete

    The point made, seemingly lost, is whether users of cocaine in Dublin are in anyway responsible for these deaths.

    no, they're not, an adult can choose themselves whether they want legal or illegal drugs themselves, as long as they dont cause anyone harm but themselves.

    Ireland need to regulate illegal drugs so we can wipe out the kinahans and others.

    thats a different argument, legalising drugs.
    (FWIW I agree they should be legalised. And teasing out the "anyone harm but themselves is worthy of another thread.


    But:
    the point made was, people buying and using cocaine in Dublin are contributing to these deaths; they've blood on their hands. Do you disagree?
