sick f**Ks and mobile phones

jon1981

abit of a short rant but im actually disgusted with people and the use of the camera on mobile phones to view somebodys misery. there has been two incidents recently, one the female garda who got attacked and then the girl murdered on parnell st in broad daylight...apparently the gardai are appealing to the person who recorded it to come forward? my question is why did you film it if not to help catch the person?

Gardaí believe the incident may have been video-recorded on a mobile phone and they have appealed to the person who has the recording to come forward.

ok the media are normally in the thick of it when they no something is going down like a riot or a protest, but now its like "oh look someone is getting battered/mugged/murdered lets whip out the camera for the craic...not for evidence!"

If you see someone getting robbed and have a camera phone,
please put the phone away and run over and help the victim!

or use it to actually call the guards?

There is one point which may or may not be relevent, I would be wary of stepping in, in case I got hurt, but I would if I thought of it record it solely to provide to Guards. and call them.

Aye. Chances are the thief will come after you and rob your phone and then someone else from a faraway distance will film you getting robbed. You'll be a YOUTUBE HIT!!!

Everybody should record everybody. As long as this is done, justice will be served.

Death of a women in iran was recorded on mobile phone.... pretty sad to have your death broadcast like that. Looks like the gardi have the guy that murdered the woman so hopefully the video won't be needed, sometimes the person recording a situation doesn't know whats going to happen... might be nothing they can do to help. Not much differance to what news reporters sometimes catch on video

Its just the warped mind/mentality of some people now a days they like to see people get hurt. its almost medievil some of the things people have on there phones with the fact you can almost have a tv on your phone people can watch what ever they want to. with out them ever going any wear near the guarda etc...

Its untraceable to see what some people have on there phone's so unfortunately they cant be traced....

the media at times do catch all kinds of nasty things, which they print or show for our, information? Craic? Entertainment? Titilation?

You could question the motivies of why they need to show some of what they do.

How do you prosecute on what their intention for recording it was?

I agree with you it is wrong if they are doing for fun.

It's rarely just one robber or mugger, they're too cowardly for that.

I've been on a night link where 3 guys attacked a guy at the back of the bus. The bus was packed, but most people were travelling in pairs/alone.
So forming a cohesive group against 3 violent scumbags wasn't guaranteed, and God knows if they were carrying knives as backup.

A Neurotic

I remember a few years ago a dude in my class in school had a video on his phone of a guy being decapitated in Iraq. Everybody f*cking huddled around him to watch it again and again and coo. "That's fair cool". I don't know myself if it was fake or not, but either way they believed it was, and they thought it was cool.

Sometimes I'm just so f*cking sickened with f*cking young people, it makes me want to cry.

And then again you have this:

Gangsters videoed their crime boss accidentally blowing his head off with a handgun during a drink and drugs party in Ireland, police have said.

Philip Collopy, 29, a top member of a feared feuding gang in Limerick, apparently didn't realise his Glock 9mm pistol was loaded when he pointed it at his head and pulled the trigger.

Investigating gardai were able to rule out any foul play in the death almost immediately after one of his associates handed over footage of the shooting he had taken on his mobile phone.

Some people are obsessed with it.
My mate was in a car crash in town, (i was 5 minutes behind in a different car)I arrived along when the 2 cars were strewn across the street. Cops were there and ambluance just arrived. My mate was shaken up and trapped in the car. And some tool took his camera phone and decided to video her! Fair play to the gards, they went over and told him to feck off or they'd arrest him!

WindSock

They'll stop a-filmin, when we stop a-watchin.

It's pretty sick, but its human nature to record something that's a bit sensational.
Yeah, it's very sick to not use it to help the person though!
Maybe they got off on the vid and wanted to keep it!

Only vids that should be on phones are vids taking by girls of their mate, flicking her bean in toilets of a nightclub.

It was also very funny.

im sick of cases like this only being treated as assault by the courts rather than the murder/manslaughter they should be treating it as
