Detective says the attack is ” unsual ” for a town like Ballymoney.
Anyone put some sense to that for me. ..
No idea! Ballymoney is a typical unionist Hellhole.
It’s normally a quiet town.
Is that where you are from it was the nationalist again was it?
I have no idea who it was, it’s a shocking innocent that thankfully doesn’t happen here too often.
I think you mean incident numpty! Im glad your taken a mature view this time there may be hope for you yet
Predictive txt on my fone. Sorry about that mate. I’ll strive for better in future.
Good man keep up the good work!
They haven’t gone away you know…
Who??
Murdering terrorist lowlifes in general
Where does it say terrorists? Missed that bit now you could be right but you could also be wrong!
Call it intuition…
It may or may not have been paramilitaries, but either way, in my book kneecapping and beating someone to death is a terrorist act regardless of which gang is doing it.
Thats a bit of an extreme view
Why?
Seems to be an uplift in violent crime up North recently.
Don’t piss people off!
have your say
