Christmas outrage in Killarney as six deer are decapitated

another example of the disregard and contempt for animal life???the hunting shooting fishing fraternity's sporting achievements..sickening.

Cuculin (sic): I don't mind being insulted, as long as it's in the ancient language of the Gael. However reluctance to contract your galar gnéas-tarchurtha inclines me against taking you up on that invite.

Carefull where you place your balls I would'nt trust Georgy.cuculin unlike nitpicking george we get the picture without the full spelling.

GeorgeDillion your an Amadan. For one thing I have told you more than once the reason for the way I Spell "Cuchulainn" and for your information I know exactly who the suspects are. I just don't like going on public forums pretending I know more than I do ( Unlike you )Your always on here forcing your mostly incorrect opinions about Ireland and you almost always get yourself into some sort of argument with other posters. You probably haven’t even been to Ireland. So from now on I am not going to respond to your nonsense. One more thing, Diúl mo liathroidí.

Sopme people need to lighten up they take themselves to seriously. Rudolph is dead long live rudolph.

this is to towngate:If dat be the case din,why was the carcass left & just the head taken? Last I remember the head was liken'to the steerin' wheel & the body to to the the engine & the body of the car. If you remember Santa's Reindeer never get old or lame they are just like Santa,for always in our memories. So don't lie on Santa like that.

Why aren't there Game Wardens around? I hope they catch the #ss#holes that did this abhorrant ,insidious, & inhumane act. I could understand if they & their family were starving but to just leave the carcass just to rot. What does the government do with the meat do they just throw it in some dumpster or what? Well I hope they are caught& their cell is cold,the blanket they cover with is thin & their arse gets frostbitten!!!!!

Cuculin (sic--check the correct spelling): Your post just shows how bad are your contacts in Killarney. As of now I cannot say it for sure, but I am told that all signs are pointing to Eastern European settlers. They've already done it to the deer in the Wicklow mountains. Remember (you probably don't, because your head is up your fundament) that Eastern Europeans were years ago proven to be guilty of denuding Irish rivers and lakes of fish that the Irish consider dirty (pike etc.) The Poles love 'em, and they have stripped the Irish lakes of them. And it's just a few weeks ago that Romanian settlers were found to be stealing the crosses and monuments from cemeteries in Galway in order to send them back to the "old country". Wake up, and stop being such a dope, Cuculin (sic)--Ireland is being dismantled in front of us and the Irish are unable to protect their heritage.

Is that right George. I am from Killarney and have spoken to several people in " The Know" and without Generalizing they don’t know who did this, or who has being doing it on and off for 20 years! Also Sir Peter, trust you to focus on the unimportant part of the story as per usual. Nice to see that one bit of misinformation irks you more than 6 illegally decapitated Deer.

Santa will have to upgrade to a power sleigh.

Paranoia george is ranting again.I hope he does'nt sprout horns and visit the kingdom.

Word from Ireland is that Eastern European gangs are the prime suspects.

Culprits should be found, decapitated and have their heads stuffed by taxidermists. Shouldn't be difficult, since they'd probably find a conspicuous lack of grey matter in the heads of these cretins. Seems some people infract laws just because they are prohibited. Wise up guys!

Hunting is one thing, and is sometimes necessary to ensure the survival of a herd. hacking the head off an animal secretly is a different matter. it indicates a disregard for any living thing. Whoever did this lives amongst you, that is cause for concern
