I think the op cannot handle the truth. I can't be doing with bull**** stories.

A cùnt tried to get into my room with a knife this morning and you call bullshìt? I'm here with the knife beside me after dealing with all this shìt today and you're there reading my story calling it fake?

You're bullshìt detector is out of whack.

I'm not blaming the Gardaì since I didn't go to them with the intention of having this guy arrested. I wanted advice, they gave it to me and I said they were being sound and helpful.

Yes it sounds fake to me.

why didnt you just finish him off while you had the chance

Believe me, after 2 months of his shìt and standing over him it was tempting to do something. As shocked as I was at least I took the notion to take a picture and deal with it as best as I thought I could.

I didn't know what I'd need with the picture but for something this serious I thought it would be needed, whatever the outcome.

They did nothing. He went and complained that a psychopath with a knife was trying to kill him, he showed them a photo of the guy passed out with the knife. They did fúck all. The least they could've done was investigated a little bit.
Why are you going out of your way to prove he's lying?

Then count yourself lucky you've never been in this situation. I've nothing to prove to you.

Others have been in this situation, you clearly haven't.

That's a mad situation.... just keep your Girl friend away until Friday AND lock your door at night... that's all you can do.

Investigate what? If he was that much in fear for himself and his gf he would have phoned the Gardai at the time,
is this not the logical thing to do?

I don't need to prove he is lying, he needs to prove he is telling the truth.

I'm fairly sure if he stayed passed out for a week they might show up just in time to see him on the floor with the knife. When people know the gardaí won't do anything and won't respond for what could be days, what's the point?

So you're in your girlfriends house now, are you flatmates still there with him?

I told the gf to pack whatever she needed and leave. She's not coming back here until everything is sorted; he leaves, all locks are changed, etc.

You're the only one who doubts him. I'd rather give him the benefit of the doubt and sympathize than do what you're doing.

Rub poo all over his walls.

He won't like that at all sure he won't.

I've been on this site reguraly for almost 6 years.

What is your logic for me to start a bullshìt thread? I'm kind of going out of my way to answer people's questions just for the sake of a joke that only I'd find funny?

Ah, now I see what you're at - "Eh, no love, of course I still want to be with you, it's just that, eh....there's this madman, yeh, that's it! A madman in the house! You, eh, have to leave and take your stuff and not come back! Seeya, bye bye! have to go, locks to change!".

Very inventive, hats off to you.

If you start a thread not everyone is going to agree with you.
I doubt the story so what, is anyone going to lose sleep over it, doubt it.

I'd be this sensitive too if:

a) Someone wanted to murder me

b) I'd gone nuts and imagined someone wanting to murder me

or c) My incredibly well thought out troll thread was being derailed by your cold analytic stance.

Sounds like the same person TBH

Kess73

The landlord in question could be taken to task if an official complaint was filed with the PRTB, and the tenant with the knife could also be done under the Section 16 of the Residential Tenancies Act 2004.

The landlord can be held liable if he/she is informed of an act or acts that go against the act and they do not act, and the tenant himself would be breaching the terms of his lease once he does the following

(b) engage in behaviour that causes or could cause fear, danger, injury, damage or loss to
any person living, working or otherwise lawfully in the dwelling concerned or its
vicinity and, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, includes violence,
intimidation, coercion, harassment or obstruction of, or threats to, any such
person, or

(c) engage, persistently, in behaviour that prevents or interferes with the peaceful
occupation—

(i) by any other person residing in the dwelling concerned, of that dwelling,
(ii) by any person residing in any other dwelling contained in the property
containing the dwelling concerned, of that other dwelling, or
(iii) by any person residing in a dwelling (‘‘neighbourhood dwelling’’) in the
vicinity of the dwelling or the property containing the dwelling concerned,
of that neighbourhood dwelling.




Maybe the OP should get in touch with the PRTB and see where he stands. Plenty of info on this site for you Duggy with links to the relevant Acts so you can check out the legal side of things.

Man, next time he passes out drag him outside and curb stomp both his hands and leave him in the road.

See how the **** likes that.

OP is defo making this up.

Otherwise we would have had a pic of the guy with the knife, on the landing.

Upload the pic op. Hide the guys face.

@ OP

Ignore hondasam, he's either trolling or there is something wrong with him. It'll just turn sour if you keep replying to him. You've enough to worry about.

Yes you probably should have instantly called the guards while this guy was outside your door so they could catch him in the act but at least you are not hurt and that's what matters for now.

Keep away from that guy, all it takes is one drunken idiot to lose control for one second to cause life changing damage to someone else.

Much appreciated Kess.

All I want is this fùcker out of my house, no way I'm living for 5 days on edge.

You're late to the party, I had the picture up but decided to take it down in case I need to pursue this.

I trust other members can back me up on that.

Yup. White guy lying on the landing with a knife and a mug lying on the floor beside him.

To be fair, if there weren't pics, Duggy would have had to GTFO hours ago.

No prob, I expected some people wouldn't believe and, as much as I didn't want to, I put the picture up.

I decided it was better to take it down in the end.

Put all the knives and any other sharp implements into a bag and bring them to the nearest garda station for them to mind while that lunatic is still around.Tell them ye are in fear of your lives.
Buy a bag of plastic knives in tesco.Also report him for threatening to burn ye out of the house.
You should demand an apology too from the landlord for putting this psycho in with ye.

jackie1974

He sounds like a total asshole but chances are he is a bully and is trying to intimidate you and flat mates so he can be king of the castle. If he really was nuts and wanted to kill you he'd have gotten into you.

The gaurds hands are tied in situations like this. It is not ilegal to walk around in the house you live in with a knife nor is it ilegal to try opening doors. A very good friend of mine wss constantly subjected to threats from her ex but the gaurds couln't touch him, they said he has to act on those threats otherwise they would be locking up half the country every weekend. She got a barring order in the end so now the gaurds do have some leverage with him but only because there is a court order. Sure there are laws that say you can't threaten someones life etc..but in reality those laws are not upheld.

OP write down every incident, keep photos etc just incase Friday is not the last you see of him and you have to get a court order. Good luck, thats a pain in the ass to be dealing with.

Ah who gives a **** either way in fairness.

If true it's ****ing mental and if not it's at least a decent effort.

Besides, i've lived with a proper ****ing violent loony in the past so it's not beyond the realms of my imagining that this might have gone down as described.

There won't be a next time for him to act up, I was given a number to ring next time he even as much sneezes. The rest of the housemates have the number now and know when we'll have to use it.
