    Methinks mass extermination of skangers is in order and RTE are calling them republican rioters and these inbred knackers now think oh were republican boyz but in fact most of them cant even read or write except their signature on the dole queue.

    I would have loved to take a pop at this filth a few of them dead would have been a bonus, just a pity the cops did'nt do a dame street on them as it would have been nice to watch these rats being smashed into the gutter were they all belong....


    Right I am off to get my anti-skanger spray:D

    how do you starve a skanger?
    hide their dole card under their work boots....

    LOL :)

    man no wonder I was getting so much bad attention when I was driving close to Oconnel st on saturday afternoon. I drive a MN reg

    march should have never been allowed !!
    Should the march have been allowed in the 1st place ?

    It seems a pretty pro-partition point of view to suggest that a particular group of Irish people shouldn't be allowed to march through their own Capital city. Why should it be just the shinners that get to do it? It's not like we want them in our city either.

    I was just trying to get home after a nice evening out in town and night spent back at a ladies apartment:

    was standing at the 15 bus-stop next to Trinity with about 50 other people (nobody there from Dublin bus to tell us to go up to the NCH [where there were f-all bus drivers and buses anyway]) and 200-300 scumbags came around the corner (between Doyles pub and the Garda station) chanting "CIRA-blah-blah.." and then they started running in our direction:
    EVERYBODY mutters "OMG! ****!" and starts running in the other direction...
    - I think this group headed up to Leinster house and some of them went further down Nassau St. and thats when the car torching happened.

    I went up to O'Connell St. at this stage to see what happened/was happening.
    The pics were taken between 230 and 330pm.

    My curosity nearly got me beaten... I was standing next to O'Connell Bridge - bewildered and when a baton charge came from the Garda I didnt automatically react like everyone else and run (riot cops were coming in from the other end of Westmoreland anyway) - I only began running when I saw a cop coming straight at me with his baton in the air!

    A Bizarre day.. almost felt like I wasnt there - too much TV I guess ;)

    nice pics emperor. bit too close to the front line though, you could have easily been beaten to a pulp... and that's BEFORE you're dragged into a van :)

    I wouldn't have objected to a few snipers atop the GPO picking of the scumbags, coulped with a few hunderd troops on the ground(armed of course) would have stopped all the violence before it began...:D :D:D

    I'm fcuking raging. This is yet another example of the chav culture holding ordinary decent people to ransom, and in my view not so much a sign that we have not yet reached a level of maturity in matters surrounding Northern Ireland, as it is a clear and vivid reminder that the welfare state has been proven to be a failure. Lest we forget, we are all subsiding these fcukbags in their idle menace.

    I don't care how politically incorrect this sounds, but I'd have every one of their ghettos torched. Fight fire with fire. They're too much a burden on our society to be allowed to exist.

    Seriously, I've never been more outraged in my life! I can't go out onto the streets these days without being afraid that I could be hopped off by some idiots with 45 degree caps.

    I'd have no scruples starting a vigilante group that patrol the streets of Dublin looking for these little skangers, break them up and torture them. What the hell did that guy from Centra do exactly? He tried to defend the shop he works in? Yeah, what an "Orange b*astard"!

    Line them up and have them shot! :mad:

    I think zero tolerance, Rudy Guiliani style, and a coherent reform of the welfare system are the way forward. The first is a very slim possibility, the second however, an impossibility IMHO, because we have gone too far down the road of encouraging the parasitic plague that is the ill educated rampantly-reproducing, feckless, council house dwelling mong, visible on every main street up and down the country. I was on O Connell St. three weeks ago, and was approached _SIX_ times "for da bus fare, bud", twice by the same idiot. I'm not singling out Dublin for a second, this is a nationwide problem, actually, scrap that, the U.K. is in an even worse predicament than we are.

    These are the same idiots that slag off asylum seekers and foreign workers, "'cos' de're takin' our jobs"; What fcuking jobs? We are accomodating a massive number of our Eastern European friends, who work their asses off for minimal pay, while these little Nike wearing insects are still claiming their weekly giros while the economy booms...

    Mods, apologies for the OT rant, I'll happily start a new thread if necessary in a more suitable place...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,252 ✭✭✭Funkstard


    We missed a perfect chance yesterday, there was a highly concentrated and centralised gathering of pure scum, we could have eliminated a fair proportion of the filth on our streets. I'm not altogether against mass extermination. I don't even think I'm joking either.

    The Repugnant Sinn Fein people encouraged this mayhem plain and simple.

    If you ask me I think it is time for Michael McDowell to list RSF as a proscribed organisation and lock up its members for sedition for what happened today. I grew up in Dublin and to see it burning like that makes me furious.

    and Lock up the little bastards in Na Fianna too!

    spot on. well said.
    bastards the lot of them.

    "You smell that? Do you smell that? Napalm, son. Nothing
    else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of napalm
    in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for
    twelve hours. When it was all over I walked up. We didn't
    find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know
    that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like - victory.

    Someday this war is gonna end.

    At 230pm I remember passing a newstalk 106 reporter on o'c-bridge; he was coming away from O'Connell St. as I was walking towards it. He was wearing a yellow construction hardhat and I thought 'wow what a duffus!' ... then at about 315 when the scum were tipping bottle bins out and a hundred glass missiles were flying through the air I was thinking 'damn a hardhat would be nice round about now!' :p

    I've just read through all 14 pages. i just wanna clear a few things up but im not going quoting everything i'm replying to so bear with me.
    Pics like these CAN and WILL be used to bring charges against these scumbags if the photos can be brought to the atention of the garda.
    Pierce street is dealing with all the damage and casualties of the riot so they could be a good place to turn in the pics/videos and i'm bringing this thread to the attention of some people tomorrow too so some of the evidence can be viewed. if any1 has the know how to gather all the pics and vids and put them on a dedicated web page would be a great help.
    the "lack of garda" comment isnt exactly fair, every garda in dublin was there barr one or two for every station to keep them open.
    The reason the garda didnt seem eegar to get physicle is because the government wont stand by the force in the aftermath as seen after maydand at the end of the day its risking their livleyhood.
    I can asure you all that the scum that got arrested got a good "telling off" back at the stations after being arrested,
    we cant have thins like water cannons because the government is inn the pocket of the rich libiral snobs and wont fund tools like that.
    the reason garda dont all has bullet proof vests is because it will make the country look bad in that the garda have something to fear from the public which everyone knows they do.
    the government wont even stand by their recruits as they are warned that they cannot strike anyone as they are not full garda members and dont have powers yet try getting a scumbag not to beat you up because your still only "in training". I would have begged to stand in that frontline with those garda but to my regret i couldnt. this had NOTHING WHAT SO EVER to do with politics or republicans or any of the other crap thats ive just heard on bbc news just now. its scum who will side with anyone over anything to get involved in a riot. and as for people having a right to march, political marches of any kind should not be allowed as the are inciting violence and people a fully aware of this.

    just a lowly recruit, thats why i kudnt be there. students wernt allowed go in as we have no official way of defending our selves and we have no riot gear. but i can tell ya id have been the first ready to roll out if i could have gone.

    also to the person who sai the little brother/cousin or whatever named a "friend" of his who bragged about throwing rocks and hitting people, I'd like to think you plan on informing the garda?

    Just a word of warning for yourself, but i believe it is frowned upon by the GARDA powers that be that you identify yourself as being a member of the force on Boards (or messageboards in general)... another Garda mentioned it on another thread a little bit back


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,323 ✭✭✭Spitfire666


    not to sound ignorant or anything but its not exactly a sackable offence and i wouldnt be the only one known to be a member on boards or similir message boards.so im not all that bothered.

    also this could have a result, only recently a car was recovered that was stolen through the cooperation of a few people on octane.ie who mentioned they spotted something fishy about a similir car.

    I too have just read all 14 pages of this thread tonight and seen a lot of the photos and videos. I was in town on Saturday and got caught up at the tail end of it, around Essex bridge. There was around 40 scum bags running back and forth to the Garda, looking to start something.

    It's REALLY annoys me the amount of pure scum in this city (and Ireland and Britain in general). They will never contribute anything to society and will just take all they can from it and the worst part is that they are breeding a lot faster than the non scum population.

    The parade was like holding a red rag to a bull, but that is no excuse for the rioting and looting. It just looked like young tracksuited scumbags up for a bit of wreckage. Sometimes I'd love to go postal on them ala Rambo or something.

    I am a bit of a lefty but not so much of a bleeding heart liberal that I wouldn't like to see these waste of space and resources up against the wall.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17 The War Dept.


    can't understand the garda in charge ? if i was in charge i would have summoned 2 units of dublin fire brigade to parnell st. ordered them to connect up to the sewage system, and DROWN those scumbags in a tidal wave of the excrement that they are.......job done ?

    Tbh, that was the most bizarre and ethereal moment of whole afternoon.
    Up until then, it looked like a random riot with no purpose whatsoever (save for a few Tricolours and such) and then, out of fcuking nowhere, that guy with a massive Palestinean flag just appears and starts waving it around the place.

    The reaction of everyone around me was total bemusement.

    I just p*ssed myself laughing tbh - Who the hell was he trying to kid???

    There has been a Republican link with how the Palestinian people are oppressed for as far as i can remember. Likewise I have seen loyalists areas up North with Israel'y flags to counteract this. I don't know to what level this link actually exists, but you'd have to ask some of Northern friends to answer that one.

    I saw a young Spanish couple throwing bits of pavement at the cops & they were photographing each other - maybe they were Basque? maybe they were anti-globalisation-protestors getting some practise in for the next G8 summit? maybe they were actually Mexican.. can anyone account for the movements of Rodrigo y Gabriela last Saturday? ;)

    A few minutes later I saw a 14 year old carrying a 6 pack of dutchgold he had just looted from a centra window... nobody seemed to be going for the moet :confused:

    Never mind the fact that the army weren't called in when the riots errupted, they should have had a presence there from midday. No offence to Spitfire666 or any of the Gardaí who were on the street but to even the simplest of minds, an infantryman in battledress (even if only armed with a riot shield and baton) is far more intimidating and likely to maintain order than a cop in dayglo yellow.

    we cant have thins like water cannons because the government is inn the pocket of the rich libiral snobs and wont fund tools like that.

    Actually you (Gardai) or prehaps the army do have a water Cannon. It was deployed when Bush came to town, not that it was used or anything.
