    Just a note to say a few dogs have gone missing in Tralee recently, so be careful out there.

    Any particular area of town?

    I noted that the sign is gone off over the doorway of Kaleli Kebabs and on peering in the window the menu and pricing are gone as well. Juat wondering if they have shut up shop for good.

    If they were only on a month to month lease they can just walk away. Not a prime location so I doubt if there was a statutory lease for the premises.

    They have been painting the outside of the shop in the last week or two. There sign has been down a couple of months as they had the whole shopfront redone. It wasnt put back up since. They were more thank likely waiting until they had it painted. They are probably renovating inside too. Pretty sure they are not closing down.

    Thanks for that. It just caught my eye passing by and I was wondering.

    The Kaleli situation is probably the same as MJ's - they took all the signs down and it looked derelict - but now it looks amazing - new signage, new paint all over, I'm sure Kaleli's are doing the same.

    Absolutely appalling behaviour.

    However he’s clearly a child and Ian Wright should have been the adult in this situation. I’m not sure if posting it on social media was the right move. We all have a duty to protect children no matter how much of a disgusting little toe rag he is.

    A child? Hes had his debs by the looks of it so out of school a year at least at this stage.

    Regardless, highlighting it on social media is absolutely the right thing to do. **** the little ****. If hes big enough to be on social media and go on like that, hes big enough to suffer the consequences.

    Theres far too much of this "ah they are just a kid " crap going on nowadays. Own your behavior.

    Has he? I did see someone on twitter say he has but didn't know if it was true.

    His parents must be so proud. I would be mortified if my child did this. A very stupid guy who will have this hanging over him for a long time.

    I’m not so sure he could easily have been at someone else debs who’s a year older.

    Ian Wright when posting had no idea of the age of the young person. From the picture it’s not immediately obvious.

    I’m not for one second condoning the behaviour of the young person BUT I don’t think Ian Wright posting on social media was the correct move.

    It could potentially have had a far different outcome then he intended. if the young person was particularly vulnerable or if some other nut job who knew the young person locally wanted to take matters into their own hands etc

    These are matters for the police and relevant authorities not for a social media mob with their pitch forks out.

    The right move was to report the matter through proper channels and let it be investigated properly.

    He's not necessarily out of school a year. My nephew is just turned 18, had debs in Jan & was meant to be doing his leaving next month. Regardless, he does need to own it. I think he's already denied it was him, but I don't believe it wasn't. Not sure if the Gardaí here can do much, unless Ian Wright wants to press charges?

    Stupid guy. This is why people need to think before they post on social media. He will have this follow him around for the rest of his life probably.

    He is still in school, what can you say except he was completely stupid and totally in the wrong, I do hope the national papers don't do a number on him though. He would want to lay off social media for a while, wouldn't be good for him to read what's been said about him. He would also need to apologise if he hasn't already.

    Just saw on the Garda twitter account that he presented himself voluntarily and no formal complaint was made regarding the racist post. The file is being prepared for the DPP. I can't post the image of the tweet, maybe someone else can.

    I saw that Sky sports tweeted it earlier this evening. He's made life very difficult for himself now. Might teach these young lads to think a bit more before the mouth off. Easy to do behind a screen, but he wouldn't be so brave in real life and now its going to bite him on the a*s!

    There's over 15,000 replies to.the tweet...and I'd say 90% are spitting bile at the kid...
    He's now a target.... going to be very rough for him now

    I'm not sure we should discuss it any further now it is under a Garda investigation. I have deleted a new thread started by someone on this topic. No need to start new threads, we already know about it now and can read about it on Twitter etc. Best to leave it be now. MOD

    No law broken. Being offensive is not an offence under the Incitement to Hatred Act.

    How can a file be sent to the DPP if their is no complainant and no statement from an alleged complainant?

    It is an offense if 'the written material, words, behaviour, visual images or sounds, as the case may be, are threatening, abusive or insulting and are intended or, having regard to all the circumstances, are likely to stir up hatred'.

    Our existing hate crime laws are weak, but thankfully are on the political radar to be strengthened. In this instance though, it's not a stretch to consider what was posted an offence under existing legislation.

    And no, Ian Wright would not have to make a complaint himself.

    Obviously not condoning what the little gobsh1te allegedly did for a second but it seems funny that if the young fella hit another young fella and smashed his jaw in the Square there would be little or no comment about it on here.

    What happened to the old sticks and stones adage?
