Looking like Summer School for this so called Hitman aswell.
A disgrace to their profession…
Wouldn’t hit a bulls arse with a banjo….
It’s horrible hearing about all the shootings . All the thugs deserve it let them all kill each other but the poor residents in the areas and in ballyfermot there is A lot of older people and that their poor nerves must be gone .
Ballyer was all quiet for a while there. Things back to normal now….
No doubt bunch of Shinner Thugs
What sort of a statement is that laura Owens ????
Clearly a troll Jason, look at the account she is using not a friend or anything.
So *rachel*. You went to the bother to set up a false twitter account to say that !!!!.
Reckon if you had another brain cell it would die of loneliness.
Innocent man was shot he was no tug
The hitmen in this country are all cock eyed. Couldn’t hit water if they fell from a boat.
Gilligan???
Hopefully with serious criminal records and with better luck dead.
Ah well.
“Gardai in Ballyfermot are appealing” ,
Handsome too!!!! :-P
Drug related ,most likely but then again it’s easy to jump to conclusion,s
Bad marksmanship..
Definitely no Lee Harvey Oswald!
Oswald the patsy
Expert navy SEAL marksman Jessie Ventura tried and couldn’t make that shot. You have been taking in by a lie.
Who ever shot JFK, Oswald was still awarded the level of marksman while in the army!
have you ever looked into the case
Can I suggest listening to the death bed confession by E Howard Hunt CIA.
One thing you have to understand is when something of this calibre goes down in America there is always a fall guy. There is no way Oswald pulled this off on his own there are vids showing secret service standing down as the car turned left onto elm st there are arguments between them as to why this order was giving it’s all there in black and white video for the world to see.
Yes, I have looked in to the case many times, I don’t disagree with you about planned government plot to kill him (I’m sure you have seen “the wink” picture etc) however I wouldn’t believe a word of Hunt’s confession, I believe he was just leaving this story so his son could cash in on it.
Good.
No tug an innocent man was shot why people jump 2 conclusions when they dont have a clue who the victims are idiots
I hope & pray for these two Men make a full miraculous recovery soon
I don’t
Sure they can’t pay up if they are dead!!
have your say
