What?

 

[Fudzy]

Short of an army of ninjas being voted into power the issue of crime is going to be around for a while still.

Sad news all the same, the topic should really make mention of 21y/o manager too.

I knew Rich as have been to TCH a few times and he was a great guy and will be sorely missed by many people who frequented his establishment and got to know him.

Lets not politicise this as there is no need.

Condolences to his and Chris' family, friends and acquaintances. May they rest in peace and may the perpetrators of this heinous crime be found and dealt with accordingly.

Who the people who shot the owner? What party did they belong too?

Anyone think this was a hit? Sounds to me like they where assassinated.

Sad to hear. Sounds like a hit to me, the killers didnt even take anything. Maybe they wanted thier protection money ?

It sure sounds like a hit. But why a pub owner and manager? Perhaps they wanted to sell drugs there?

Strange.

Doesnt matter what the motive was, crime is crime.

 

[Grimspoon]

believed there was a conflict between Smyth and "other people" which had been ongoing for the past year.

Pretty clear indication that it was most likely a hit. Very sad and shocking.

You put a in the title indicating you felt it was somehow humourous.
