An Garda Siochana - The Official Thread

[Musical Paper Boy]

Nobody gets a hiding that doesn't deserve it for one thing or the other.

I don't buy this whole 'wrong place at the wrong time' business at all.

I can tell the difference between a scumbag and a regular person just by looking at them.

 

[Musical Paper Boy]

Exactly, they have it coming one way or another, in some shape or form for something else they have done, like hitting an aul doll in the past or something, or bullying someone, its Karma

It's like Minority Report.

Stop these fuckers before they get their chance.

And there's the problem, they shouldn't be allowed to do that at all.

Tbh my experience of the guards in this country is 50/50, some do their job and do it well others will do anything to make their job easier for themselves.

thats in every job though for me whether its doctors or engineers or the chipper.

Woah there Duffy.

A bad engineer is a paradox in itself.

Doesn't happen.

True but they have a duty of care and if they can't hack it they shouldn't be in the job.

Nobody has a duty of care when it comes to scumbags.

but sure they dont care about that.

the poor ones that is!

if there is a serious incident you will have half the cops running for the car while the other half hide behind the desk.

i think they do a good job,, but one would ask the question would they be as quick at the door of a high rise council flat as they would at a residence with security gates? Not here they wouldn't, money talks

not a case of Money talks a case of living out in the country where boy racers used to enjoy speeding up and down the drive in the middle of the night, the gates are only there to stop them coming in and/or turning and doing donuts...
us country bumpkins need to mind our crops....

At the end of the day i'm sure no Garda is going to differentiate between a 16 year old ringing crying saying someones trying to break into her house at 3 am on a Saturday and that shes scared and someone in a high rise council flat...

that's your own bias talking not theirs.
