    Around 4pm there were hundreds of school kids running screaming across Eyre Square, lots of cops around afterwards, armed response unit and a couple of other Garda cars were around the bus station.
    Anyone know what was going on?

    I think the National Association of Sex Offenders were having their conference in the Meyrick.

    There's lots of Banks around Eyre Square, hence all the armed security.

    I was there, heard they were all going to watch a fight. About a hundred or so ended up mobbing Martin McGuinness cheering and getting pictures taken and stuff.

    I was walking through eyre square around 4.15 and there was 3 young lads , around 14 id say, being put into an ambulance. There were around 20 other youths standing around it. Id say it was an organised fight between two young lads over something silly.

    Nah, people just have more time on their hands now to notice and pontificate about these happenings. Fights have always happened, caravan dwellers have always slashed the heads of each other etc.

    Everyone was just too busy making celtic tiger money before

    I dunno.I think people just have more time on their hands to be fighting and messing maybe. Even the good ole caravan dwellers used to keep it for special occasions like funerals and weddings once upon a time and most of them have an equal amount of time on their hands since the celtic tiger roared out of these parts.

    It'd be a pity if we were to get used to it and accept it as "local colour".It'd be nice if the place stayed a bit classier for those of us left here ,try and inspire a bit more pride and ambition in the local yocals.

    Now, that's my pontificating done. It's a poor substitute for shopping though.:)

    In a controlled environment, fair enough.

    Don't think this was so it's just stupidity...
