Yeah because that sort of behaviour never happens in the south inner city... D8 is the biggest ****ole in Dublin.

Drove through it on me way to crumlin earlier in the week. Donore Avenue lol like something from Beirut.

Defending it and saying "on me way" means, to me, you're probably from the north inner city; in which case I find it hard to see how you can defend it if you have first hand experience of living there!

No im not from the inner city area at all. Northside though.

So why dont you tell us why the south inner city is any better than north inner city.

Even post codes?


I'll have to side with the bull on this one. There's been plenty of violent feuds on the southside and plenty of rough areas that cause massive issues for Gardaí.

It’s a fairly accurate portrayal of the inner city.

Nah, not really. You don't see that sort of thing every minute of every day anywhere in Dublin really. Sure the video was a sensation it was that unusual.

Oliver Bond flats springs to mind, the majority of the gear sold in town is coming from there.

The gardai have to be mob handed going in there. Scumbags have the run of the place they can do what they like.

In all honesty they're really very similar. I do think that Donore Avenue and the surrounding areas would be less intimidating to walk around then the north inner city.

A lot of young professionals and young families have bought around that area in that past couple of years and you can start to see a change in the area.

I still wouldn't recommend walking around there at night by yourself, and I wouldn't be massively surprised to hear someone was assaulted there but it is changing.

Our beat guards are more interested in chasing down ice creams or defending multi national corporations than tackling such anti social scumbaggery.

But this is where criminals are born. Leave this stuff go unpunished and the ante gets upped the next time. It's attention seeking at its most basic.

What beat guards? There' barely enough Gardaí to man stations, never mind go on the beat.

As it is in plenty of rural towns and hinterlands with feuding factions.

That's on O'Connell St. As usual no gardaí, no hint of any protection for the public from random attacks, no visibility of police.

It's the visibility issue that Dublin really suffers from and this gives scumbags like that the feeling that they can act with impunity.

Brave boy running off like the cowardly **** he is. I hope the prick ran in front of a bus and got killed.

Have to say I was shocked and worried reading the title and clicking into this video, but seeing that they protected the mans identity by blurring his face was a huge relief.
May he live to scourge another day. :pac:

Remember the video that was taken on Sheriff Street a few years ago?
It was Dublin encapsulated in one 43 second video.

Two skangers started hassling two foreign chaps in gym gear in broad daylight in the inner city.

Clearly the two gym goers are getting hassle, their attire presumably provoking caustic barbs from the skangers, their own choice of leisureware not withstanding . One thing leads to another and the whip thin be-tracksuited idiot decides that it's a bright idea to start a scrap with two guys built like brick **** houses.

Needless to say it doesn't go well for him and he quickly and efficiently gets his ass handed to him on a plate. A side swipe that would have made Sub Zero from Mortal Kombat proud floors him immediately while his companion pummels him on the floor. The other, now commited in support of his moronic buddy, is also kicked but less effectively but is then manhandled to the ground with a thump to his hoodie for good measure. Bang. Take zat you cant.

He, amazingly, manages to keep his bag of chips intact during his ordeal. The two lads now go on their way. However, the instigating skanger, who should really know better to just stay the **** down, tries to get up to continue it, his ego now destroyed in public and for his stupidity he receives a beautfiul kick to the head and with that coup de grace he's now down for the day. It is now nap time for him.

Seeing the kick, which is deemed to contravene the rules of engagement, the instigator is ridiculously now deemed to be the victim in all of this. In support of that an oul wan with a thick Dublin accent shouts 'Ah heeur, ah leave it out, leave it fookin out' in solidarity with the poor chap now splayed on the ground, dazed and confused, incapable of causing any trouble for the foreseeable future and hopefully having learned an invaluable lesson that it is wise to choose your battles and is now determined to cause hassle for tourists and those less capable of kicking his ass and bruising his ego instead.

He staggers to his feet admirably in defiance of these callous 'fordiners', that he actually started it all is now completely irrelevant. Ah shure there's no need for kicking, the idea that if you don't cause trouble in the first place the probability of getting a boot to the ceann becomes infinitesimally smaller is lost on the oul wan.

Chip guy moronically decides to forego his bag of chips and thinks that throwing them at the other two could potentially harm them. His reason I guess being that some salt and vinegar to the eyes would be unpleasant for the gurriers who had the audacity to use their legs in a street fight. Unsurprisingly they don't have the desired effect and he now has no chips at all further compounding their embarrassing loss.

So two skangers looking for and finding trouble. Two foreigners minding their own business caught up with the local vermin stirring ****. A smart phone video that goes viral, the countless memes edited to other videos are created using the 'Ah here' soundbite. A remix song is created sampling her shouts, it is jokingly speculated that she might be a good choice for eurovision, the oul wan now becomes a star, get's invited onto Ireland's copy cat version of the UK'S 'Loose Women' for her fifteen minutes of fame, the guards open an inquiry which amounts to absolutely nothing, the two foreign lads, who were midning their own business, are attacked for having the audacity to kick during a streetfight and the two skangers are in all probability still causing trouble around the inner city.

That area is not Sheriff Street in Dublin though. It's actually Talbot Street.
