To sit down and have a "peaceful" chat with some politicians?

I dont know what the intentions were, but sitting down and talking to the politicians doesnt seem to work

First off the gates are NEVER left open at Government Buildings. At Leinster House the gate is left half open.

And I too believe its way OTT to start shooting people.

But people should not be fooled into thinking Government Buildings and Leinster House are soft targets either.

There was 3 from the army there, 1 senior and 2 soldiers in army dress suits with pistols holstered, they only came after gardaí had got a line

Maybe you'd rather go in ripping the heads off people.. Thank God there are strong, tough & brave members of AGS there to face you down.

The garda in question is doing a job he is paid to do.

This was a protest not a teddy bears picnic.

The general public have to take some of the blame.

I have not approved nor condoned what he did.

Merely stating that using his bat has shown more results than people shouting.

Then maybe he should use his bat on the government.

Seriously, only three?.

Sorry I have to shoot off (no pun), training in 30 minutes & I'm late.

That rag (the Indo) got it a bit arseways then:

"Some of them headed for a military police post where an armed corporal was on duty.

The corporal felt under threat and produced his baton to protect himself before he was supported by a garda motorcyclist, who also drew his retractable baton."

as far as I can see, in the last few weeks of protests, the gardai dont have a clue how to do theyre jobs. Theyre acting like a bunch of bullies, as regards to the characteristics you have put on the gardai, thats a matter of opinion, but I when I march to government buildings to protest I will not have myself or others that are trying to have there voice heard treated like punching bags by the gardai or anyone else

Well then stay in your squat, and only go out of a Quesday to collect the dole.


That's the best and safest way out of it.

One of the most stupid comments so far. I work, hard for that matter. Your comment just goes to show that you couldnt give a **** about your fellow countryman, considering you would belittle someone's opinion merely on the premise that theyre on the dole. You should be ashamed of yourself.

when you march make sure the protest is peacful.

Im sure it will get out of hand like the other protests and then ye can blame the gardai again.

true, but they, more than any, should understand the general publics outrage and right to protest. They are "the protectors of society", but what is happening now transends this. The reason people are protesting, IS TO PROTECT SOCIETY, the protests are peaceful.

yes but the have a job to do, surely you can understand that. What would the general reaction be if the stood back and done nothing. The have to police the protests.

Thats pretty much what im getting at ya, they should have "kept order". Of courses there are people who are gonna get in there faces, the gardai are the face of the politicans in this case, at that protest they didnt act on behalf of the public, they just acted headless. No-one went to protest that they had a problem with the gardai!! But the gardai imposed themselves on this situation recklessly.

The varying interpretations of the term ’violent’ protest are quite amazing. If any of ye remember the H-Block protests back during the Hunger Strikes, now that was a time for true 'violent' protests. Flag posts wrapped with barbed wire, baseball bats with nails hammered through them, serious sh1t. A bit of jostling with colourful language thrown is certainly not 'violent' protest ffs!

what i meant was coming out and acting like that is exactly like being the "protectors of the government" not of society. It was the type of action that you would expect from the likes of Burma, squash any ressistance

The gardai are there to police and protect everyone.

He was a bit OTT alright. They have been a bit too heavy handed during recent protests. But in fairness to them, they are dealing with large crowds of (mostly) dickheads. His colleagues should have been backing him up a bit instead of just lookiing at him, then maybe he wouldn't have needed to go as far.

The guards dealing with the guy who stood in front of the ministers car were way too heavy handed. The thud when he hit the ground! They should have been able to control that one a lot better, it was only a minor incident.

What have I got to do to make you love me
What have I got to do to make you care
What do I do when lightning strikes me
And I wake to find that you're not there
What do I do to make you want me
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I say when it's all over
And sorry seems to be the hardest word
It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
And it's getting more and more absurd
It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word

I'm guessing there's loads of things you wouldn't do to him. Cos you see, this is the internet. Some people tend to exaggerate about their hardness.

But this thug in the helment was out of order.

Apart from that the whole thing was a set up anyway, the gate left open and the first group through a load of press reporters.

The irish version of violent protest. Just make sure you have a camera. Start violence. Then hope you get hurt. Then start crying. Come on the internet and blubber about how you got hurt - with youtube links of course.

It was funny looking at pictures of the student protest. Hundreds of people with camera phones raised in the air. Hoping someone would hurt them.

It probably has something to do with post colonialism or victim mentality or something.

Don't worry, I fully expect the Gardai to be run ragged over the next couple of weeks. They have shown how inadequate they are at dealing with disturbances, they are in for a big shock on Saturday.

I wonder what would happen if I got myself a few Nazi flags and tried to get pas the security at the Reichstag. I can see a lot more than a few batons being drawn, and used.

The Garda was totally in the right.
