Vigilante 'Kneecappings' In Northern Ireland: Shot By My Neighbour | Stacey Dooley
Vložit
- čas přidán 10. 09. 2018
- Every year dozens of people in Northern Ireland are shot in the legs or assaulted by vigilante armed groups from their own neighbourhoods. These paramilitary-style attacks are known as 'kneecappings' when they are shootings and they can be brutal. They can leave the victims, usually young men, with lifelong physical and mental injuries. Stacey Dooley meets people who have been shot as well as people within affected communities who are standing up to the attackers, and she tries to speak to some of those behind the attacks

That guy in the wheel chair did a lot more than he is letting on to.
Jonny ellis How do you know that ? What made you to believe that? In America these so called “Vigilantes” would be shot dead within a week.
@@Ajp_Boricua They are not going to shoot him several times over a fight with some member, that shit's done for much more serious things.
@@Minienz89 You act like you are with them 24/7 like I said read the comment above.
@@Ajp_Boricua
What? the comment that is essentially what i said? or your comment where the only point you made is the 'vigilantes' would be shot dead within a week' which has almost zero relevancy to what i said?
what do you mean 'like i said'? what??
did you even actually read what i said? or what the other guy said?
Andrew Perez ahahaha by who
I’m from Northern Ireland and still living here. The kneecapping are mostly for drug dealers/ freelancers, and over money, not punishments for daily things. It’s serious matters they are shot over.
SHADE .K they deserve it like otherwise catholic areas would be awash with drugs
Exactly all about money nothing else
@@ggff3761 awash in a Catholic area... Behave...
The funny thing is the people carrying out the shootings are funded by drug money🤣🤣
@Craig David mate you're insane, have you ever been around an estate that's under the thumb of paramilitary? They control the drug scene.
I call bullshit that guy got his knees done for fighting someone. He has been caught doing something he doesn't want to admit to.
Usually it's drink driving or telling tales
@@bteamgleemllc6864 The severity of the attack makes me think he was either robbing houses (multiple offence), joyriding, or drug dealing.
Aye ah would say drug dealing or similar
Selling drugs
I'm actually surprised that someone would get crippled and never be able to stand up again just for making a mistake like drinking and driving. In my opinion it makes us look like a third world country tbh just like getting stoned in Syria.
It's funny how normal this is to all of us living in Northern Ireland.. Nobody understands how much better it is now than it was during the troubles, if you think this is bad then you wouldn't want to be around 40 years ago when bombs and shootings were happening damn near every day, this IS progress
I'm an American and this is shocking to me. Where the hell are they getting the guns and ammo from? How are the police not catching these people? So many questions. They're nothing but gang members and thugs.
@@rachelel9087 they're illegal. Depends on what side you're taking about.
l agree l was an 80s kid even the 80s was terrifing but l thought was normal as every other kid did
+Rachel El lol the american irish send the guns
Theyre using the same guns they had from before the good Friday agreement, they all came from America and Libya and some of them are from the second world war too, they hid all their firearms when the good Friday agreement was signed in case they needed them in the future if it didn't work out. People find weapons caches round here every so often, there's 100s of them throughout the north and south of Ireland, there's more guns and bombs than there are members of these organisations
what men, i just see jeans and some floating shades
lmao
You win
@BCFC Plus don't even try come back at me with 'They were terrorists because they killed innocent people' so did the black and tans they killed way more innocent people then the ira did yet apparently their not terrorists
@BCFC So did the black and tans yet people called them hero's
mate my friends did the same thing when they saw a bus with a camo paint job
"we just come out of the shadows, do our deed, and go home" sounds more like the testimony of a lad frequenting the local doggers hotspot
Bit like their sex life
@@nickieriley7733 that was the joke Nickie
Hahaha
I didn’t know memelous shot people
The way it is done by the old school is a warning is sent to (usually) a drug dealer or someone who preys on the weak (theives robbing elderly, beating women or children etc). If the behaviour didn't stop within a certain time frame it would be discussed on how to punish the person. This can be a beating, a knee capping or death. It is then carried out by the locals of that community.
You don't get shot multiple times for "having a fight" with someone. If that's what actually happened (which i highly doubt) then this group is in serious trouble of extinction by another more formulated and organised group.
yeeeee paaa

@Dáithí Mullins Dad's side yes. He left Belfast and came to England when he was 19 to get away from it. Stayed here ever since.
Then don’t deal drugs don’t rob don’t steal cars . Then you wouldn’t get shot. Simple.

You can take back your community, working class people don’t need to tolerate heroin dealers.
@@tobinakatarx ok commie
They used to leave signs on victims. Kneecaps and elbows gone with a sign round his neck saying "mugger of old ladies" just so people know.

U don’t get shot multiple times over a fight 😂 this guys got more to tell
It’s Belfast
Drugs for sure.
Come to america
@Xx xX I wouldn't do that shit over a fight u win some u lose some but not every1 is like that nd in the uk u got some guns but not like crazy over here u can legally carry1 so all it takes is you beating up the wrong person now your getting pistol whipped for all your belongings especially if they are affiliated with a gang

Belfast has the best surgeons in the world for dealing with kneecapping’s because they’ve had that much experience and has become second nature.
I reckon them boys are fake, probably the sound engineer and boom operator. BBC journos
It literally said they were actors...smh
@@CCFC-qq9bs true, but think about it..would you meet BBC interviewers if you was them. I know i wouldnt.
*+Rebal* Yes. Because exposure makes people feel validated about their beliefs. Most especially if that exposure comes from people your beliefs are against. That is the ultimate validation.
How that could surprise you is so beyond me.
Stfu with your stupid questions. Btw, @pablo escobar was a goof!
@Steven Hickman why do you say that ,what's fake
"windowsless van" (normal van)
The front was blocked so she couldn't see out and the back windows were covered. Reead "windowless" 🙄
Ah c'mon, "we could be living next door to your granny", does the BBC even listen to their scripted shite before putting it out
how is that scripted shite? seems true to me
Why say "we could be living next door to your granny"? Why wouldn't they say "we could be living next door to you"?(which sounds a lot more plausible). Its to instill some sort of belief that they would attack the elderly and most vulnerable in our society, it boosts ratings and lastly only someone from outside a working class nationalist area would come off with something so ridiculous
3:16 The full sentence is: _"Everybody here: we're just normal men; we could be living next door to your granny & that's why people fear us...because we come out of the shadows; do our deed & go home"_
If ur gran's living in some quiet neighbourhood u wouldn't expect her neighbour to be a brutal vigilante. IMO, he's basically say they've got good camouflage & could launch a surprise strike at any moment & so they are a big threat to pedos & other people they don't like
Ur claim that only a non-working class person would say that seems to be just a blind assumption
Being from one of these areas my entire life im not making a blind assumption
well if you don't have any reason for making that claim then it us a assumption. Ur reason so far is "it's a ridiculous thing to say". But as i've explained it's clearly not really a ridiculous thing to say. They could be living next door to ur granny
Waiting for the people that have watched top boy to comment 😂

All about the control over the drug trade, been like it since the 90's

ATS actually true SO IT IS
Didn't you know about this it's been going on for years 💥
Least they’re not going round capping random innocents.
If the police don’t wanna keep their communities clean of criminals then someone else gotta do it 🤷🏾♂️
That's exactly what's happening they don't turn up. If they do turn up they just sit in their armoured Landrover's and watch.
You obviously have no brain. These little boys are "kneecapping" random people that are against them in the drugtrade. These so called morality heroes deal drugs themselves.
@@AverageGaming1 You've got absolutely no clue if you think the hoods that are hanging around Street corners are against them in the drug trade you're severely deluded.
@Nigel Mansell Attack the police? It's their job regardless to deal with that and get them off the streets.
@Nigel Mansell I can blame for sitting in their Land Rover night after night and doing nothing. They had no problem coming face to face with rioters.
keep people safe
Shooting people infront of their kids... IDGAF what someone done, infront of the kids? Cmon.
They are called punishment attacks for a reason
Exactly social action no feeling guilt.
Wow sounds like a lovely place
That's scary still
What was this guy's line of work before his knee capping?

I was getting that vibe 😂😂
Why George memulous dose not upload everyday

Should be how it is everywhere...
Outstanding job. We need more of this.
Next you can line up the alcoholics and the white-collar criminals and the corrupt politicians, along with the fascist police and the wife beaters. And you can just shoot 'em. Cause we need more of this. You. Ignorant. Dip. Shit.
Kneecapping?
@@fintanbeirne7261 for drug dealers , sure. Vigilante justice is the only way to combat the rackets these days.
i used to be an adventurer like you, until i got kneecapped...
But i think America should take note and deal with the drug dealers rapists and there thieves the same way!
John Jenks we have to do it here because the police won’t go into catholic areas
You think thieves and drug dealers deserve to be permanently crippled?
Why specially here not France or some where closer y’all always tryna find a way to suck US dick
Drug dealers in America have a tendency to kill each other regularly. Pedos in prison get dealt with.
And pedophiles .
by the sound of those speed ramps ,I would say that was Stinkbrook
This is one of the funniest pieces of absolute bull I've ever seen. Does anyone seriously think Irish republicans would meet the BBCs Stacey Dooley for a sit down chat... come on folks.. We don't operate like that..... laughable.
That is true. They fucking despise the BBC
Yea it's a bit weird. 😂
its not irish reps your right they wouldnt meet up
I’d rather if you never operated 😂
No, you just hang about in CZcams comment sections bragging about it instead.

Blush Arito and don’t join the cops
Gg Ff not true. I know some people who are in the police force; yeah a lot of people disrespect them but at the end of the day; behave and you’ll not be in trouble. Police can be a little annoying but at the end of the day it’s their job to protect
Blush Arito what are you fuckin on about the police in Northern Ireland are enforcing British rule that’s why people like this attack them r u even from here
Yikes 😳

Nobody seems to have picked up on the fact that the big guy in the middle at 2:30 has a .22LR rifle with an air gun optic. Perhaps his day job is shooting sparrows?
studentacadia weird. Are you sure though?
@@0IIIIII 100%. It's a Ruger 10/22 rifle with a Ruger bx-25 magazine, a cheap Tasco optic, and a plastic chassis to make it look intimidating.
Google the magazine and you'll recognize it right away.
studentacadia wow. That’s crazy. Those other guns are real though. Wonder why the big guy in the middle brought a toy to flex?
A little .22 rifle may not be intimidating to Americans, Canadians, etc. but here in the UK and Ireland that's like having an M60. At the end of the day it's capable of doing serious damage
@sean jones That's sarcasm, right?
My mum grew up with this and they were not scared as at all used their houses and ginnels to escape. They were scared of orange men as they shot my grandads best friend in front of my uncle who was 8yrs old at the time,they shot my mums cat and shit her house up put a red X on her door which meant they were to be taken out. Pathetic shot out of her own land owned for hundreds of years my family goes back in Belfast
Sounds like propaganda.
Keep up the good work UTR TAL32

Kneecapping happens everywhere by drug dealers lol
Exactly which is why it’s different in NI
Educate yourself
@@indiekiddrugpatrol3117 ??
@@rhondacupples1943 what
the reason these guys are kneecapping drug dealers is because theyre dealing on their turf which they will have mates dealing on not to bring justice
The police do nothing about the drugs. This is the answer. Send a team out and put these dealers down. It works. We see the results. Thank you.
What, and end the payoffs to the police? Policemen need money too.
A wife doesn't really care where money comes from as long as living needs are met. Women KNOW how much a police man
makes on his check. A policeman on my block was sent to prison for being involved in the drug thingy, I was surprised, I had no clue. 3 of them were sent off. Why wasn't his wife sent to jail along with him? Most wives KNOW what their husband is up to.
The PSNI don't get involved hediase the paramilitarys typically like to deal with these themselves.
You idiot they are all involved in selling drugs. It's turf war
You can take back your community
BECAUSE ITS NOT THS POLICES JOB THATS A JOB FOR THS DRUG SQUAD.
Joyriding, drug dealing, burglary, etc… Are the main reasons for receiving a punishment shooting. People (very often) ignore warnings to stop their anti social behaviour, after that they are walking on very thin ice.
So if you get shot on the knees you will never be the same ?

Horrible horrible men.
On the one hand if they broke into my house I probably would prefer to contact them however who decides who gets shot and who doesn't?!?! 🤔
And how can they prove it?!?! 🤔
Nobody should get shot, especially if you just won a fight with one of them, if it was a fair fight nothing should be done whoever wins. I would be happy to help if they get justice for the worst of the worst, but in most if not all cases a good old fashioned kicking should do, if the justice system did not do it's job.
it's well known who's stealing cars and breaking into houses they don't hide it and the police let's them get away with it. They are on the same Street corners everyday.
These lot would not survive in london.
Not survive in London? Lol those lot used to bomb London for fucks sakes.
Have a day off hahahah these guys would run the “gangs” out of London, they’d be shitting themselves if these guys came to town
These guys aren’t just street gangs. They are literally a hidden society of criminal enterprises. I live in Northern Ireland and if they came to London they would run out any of the wannabe gangsters on the street corners. These guys don’t mess about. Anyone who lives here knows what they are capable of. The kids in London are nothing compared to what these organisations are.
