GARDAÍ ARE APPEALING for witnesses after shots were fired at a house in Dublin 22 yesterday evening.

@eoin carroll: they do if a bullet goes inside and kills an innocent person
An Garda should be routing out these Dublin based crims rather than trying to besmirch Sinn Fein. These shootings have been going on for far too long.
Just offer E5000 for information leading to the arrest & conviction of those with illegal firearms and make it a mandatory 5 year jail for the offenders.
IMO, a million Euros would clear the city of illegal firearms and put a few hundred behind bars for 5 years.
At present it’s costing multiples of this per year passively policing these crims.
@Moorooka Mick: all you Sinn Fein members should don your finest military attire and goose step around Clondalkin and Coolock to keep the local community safe.
