Mr Gormley described calls for the resignation of his cabinet colleague as "absolute nonsense". He said Mr Lenihan was doing "a very good job under exceptionally difficult circumstances".
I thought the had a community safety initiative going on there and that the brookview area was a pilot site for that? doesn't appear to have been very effective if teenagers are been shot on the streets. I wonder how muh was spent on that scheme?

Gerry Gregg, director and producer of the TV series Badfellas, is blaming the Provos on this. In today's Evening Herald, he said "The rise of the Provisional IRA was the genesis of the problem that has just claimed another young life"
There's probably no god. Now, stop worrying and enjoy your life.
I blame the sicko's that pulled the trigger, bought the gun and put the killer up to it.

I'm inclined to agree and suggest a 15 -20 year spell. Certainly, some solid convictions has produced some good results in Limerick in recent times (hoping tentatively). The trouble is that the sentences are not long enough.

"In 1992, the Irish Times' Moscow correspondent, Seamus Martin, was rooting around the official archives of the Soviet Communist Party when he made an interesting find.
Martin discovered two letters on Workers Party (WP) headed notepaper, addressed to the international department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU).
The letters were dated July and September 1986, and were apparently signed by the general secretary of the Workers Party, Sean Garland.
The September letter sought a grant of GBP1 million from the CPSU and referred to WP fundraising through "special activities". The party later claimed that this letter was a fabrication, but never denied the authenticity of the earlier letter.
That letter, sent on July 1 1986, was a request by Garland to the CPSU to meet Gerry Gregg - then on leave from his job as an RTE television producer - who had recently formed his own TV production company, Iskra Productions. (Iskra was the name of the Bolshevik newsletter in 1917.) Iskra, wrote Garland, was interested in producing films on Soviet life.
Garland explained that the Workers Party in Ireland had devoted a lot of time and money to combating the "capitalist media" and to educating "the working class".
"As part of this struggle," he continued, "some members of the Workers Party recently formed Iskra Productions. Iskra productions functions in an environment hostile to a Marxist analysis of many of the problems confronting western society.
"However, Iskra Productions also recognises that, within the western media there is a commercial appetite for 'stories' which, paradoxically, may embody a critique of the dominant ideology or power structure of western society."
Garland described the company as "a Marxist film-making enterprise which commands this party's full support. Iskra is potentially a useful propaganda device for the socialist cause, for a small party like ours it promises much by way of building up the intellectual, ideological and financial resources of our party."
Garland said Iskra's "very talented team" included Gregg, his fellow TV producer Eoghan Harris, and radio producer John Caden. All three were longtime and vocal Workers Party supporters in RTE.
Gregg was a paid-up member of the party who would later go on to make its political broadcasts at election time."
