where is the so called ira in all this

Presumably some of the many "IRAs" are getting money from the Criminal thugs?

[ardtole]

I wouldn't have thought so, these current gangs have no fear of the IRA whatever guise they are under now.

If they didn't disband would any of this happen? They seemed to control crime in a somewhat positive way compared to these hoors.

That was a conversation me and a friend had, would the level of gang warfare have went on during the 90's when the IRA were still prevalent in controlling areas?

To dismember someone takes some stomach I would imagine, and things seem to be escalating worse and worse, and unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any feasible solution to this. 

A someone has mentioned, if they legalise drugs to control the flow, the same fellas will profit from some other form of criminality.

The Shankill butchers were as bad as these criminals .

Decrim use, and go after suppliers. More Garda. More resources. Longer sentences.

How can you go after suppliers of something that it legal?

No!! Cocaine is illegal for a reason.

i would  say these drug dealers and those that killed that boy are up to their eyeballs in coke themselves that probably turns them even more psychotic.

I heard a travelling gang is involved.

Not quite. The incumbent gang contain travellers,but it isn't a traveller gang, if that makes sense

Dismemberment is not confined to gangland murders

And is that reason worth the criminality it brings by banning it?

[seafoid]

The Gardai are more likely to go after psychopathic murders because of the international media attention. Kenneth O'Brien's murderer is in prison .

Psychopathic murders are bad for Ireland's image.

Think the OP refers to the Provisional IRA as opposed to any particular further break off.
