Wild West approach to law and order

MAYO Fine Gael deputy Michael Ring said he was “delighted” with the Nally case ruling, claiming the verdict was “not about Travellers” and that Pádraig Nally was a man “living in fear”.

Does that mean we are all free to kill any trespasser, not just Travellers? Really? Say if some middle class kid takes to burglary to finance an addiction, are we all free to shoot him even after he flees the property? Really?

A jury should acquit us? Really?
