No comments on this yet? Where are all the people who were running around various boards, blogs, papers etc complaining that the Documentary on TV3 last week was inaccurate and Limerick really doesn’t have a problem? If a pitched brawl in the city centre in the middle of the day isn’t a serious problem what is?
It’s a massive problem. no one can deny it. If they do, they’re just kidding themselves.
Colm, my sentiments exactly!
