Cork city has gone to the dogs.

[ikari warrior]

I’m in town every night for work and I can tell you that 90 % of the sleeping bags given out go to an organised crime group who then dump them when their shift is over , They all get collected by busses between 5 and 6 am , One of my crew speaks their language and what he overhears is incredible,they have to ring their boss every how’s with an update on the takings , It’s deliberate designed to take advantage of the closing time crowd ,some still have the odd fiver but even they are taking amongst them selves about how there is little cash , These guys then physically intimidate Irish or English off the prone doorways , It’s crazy Any raised eyebrow are more than welcome to come on the rounds with me and I’ll show you in person , Tourists now cower in their hotels and privately Fortune 500 companies top brass tell me they will curtail investment here in cork and one notable company told me that instead of cork the moved an operation to Texas abs the staff were frightened , Fucking Texas like

"No, what are you talking about"
Jesus fucking Christ, are you completely fucking stupid and brain dead?
He's obviously pointing out your hypocrisy that it's fine for you to be out late with your kids when you're a tourist but when tourists do the same thing here you're victim blaming that they're out till 10.
How the fuck did you not join the dots there?

Ghoti could be added to the IOTY24 Thread bank if he keeps up his hypocrisy and calling it moronic that tourists who are staying in the city were in the city at 10pm when it's bright.

The last time I was back in Cork I saw 3 Gardai and maybe 50 junkies across four days.

Visible policing is not a solution, but fuck all will improve without being put in place.

Stacky 100 % and now that this eh opportunity to make a score is gone you have criminals involved in more complex schemes and the lack of cash has trickled down into the scenes you see in cork today , This is where we are at today as a direct consequence of cashless ,unfortunately it’s hit the addicts first but it’s coming for all of us soon ,I’m a glass half full type or else I would never have invested in this city but how ordinary people can’t see the damage and join the dots is incredible, Anyway coming to a neighbourhood near you shortly,it’s logical ,very sad and totally avoidably , By the way we are now 92% card at work , One of the touted benefits of cashless was that insurance would be way less as there was going to be no risk of holding cash , Quess what insurance went up , Also it’s a hidden tax on consumers now , Before it was just businesses that had to pay to lodge cash ,now the punter is dropping cents every time they tap is crazy

Norway is 98% cashless and does not have the drug addict/crime issues that we have here in Ireland.

Criminals just love cash as it is untraceable.

Addicts will trade in bicycles or electric drills if they have to.

Kids do not want cash anyway and they have zero history of it and are all now on Revolut etc.

Blaming the cash is just letting the courts, Government both local and national as well as the Guards off the hook with poor policing on our streets.

No point spending hundreds of millions of Euros doing up the public realm in the city if it is not even going to be policed.

I agree.
Benny basically saying it's not the junkies', police's, society's fault, but it's actually all the fault of a lack of cash on the streets - get everyone carrying around wads of cash and that will sort everything out!

Why cant these addicts just buy card readers in Currys etc?

They are already focking experts in chemistry etc?

"Society" could give them all a new house, car and job but they will blow it all anyway as they are drug addicts and have no self-control as addicts that clearly require proper long-term treatment and support.

We however do not need to see their daily collapse on our streets every single day and are entitled to expect better.

Have holistic facilities in the rural parts with an escape from the city hostel-beg/steal cash/score drugs/zombie out for a bit/more drugs/city hostel/Bridewell daily routine.

Having everyone wandering around the city after a few post-work drinks with their pay-packet envelope stuffed with cash on a Friday night would be a lotto win for criminals and addicts.

Nothing to do with the quality of their prisons and rehab at all?

Yes, mass murderer Anders Brevik is having a fine old time in his hotel/prison.

Drug addicts are not considering the quality of prison accommodation anyway as they are drug addicts but what we are doing or not doing right now is clearly not working.

About 5 other EU countries are also close to being fully cashless rather than having people fumbling around for a filthy fiver late at night to somehow ward off a drug addict or beggar.

Will you ever STFU, how's a man ever to make a harmless dishonest living like.

Btw, need anyone to clean those solar panels for you? You won't get cheaper than me like.

Gutters?

Windows?

Rubbish dumped?

Painting done?

Flooring laid?
