That's the difference between her kind and our kind I know what I think of them but I keep it off the internet and out of my actions I follow the rules.

Her kind and their behaviour has a very real impact on this country.

Shocking how much air time she gets.

I've only ever had 2 occasions in work where coming across a traveler hasn't turned into threats of violence or trying to get a free ride etc.

They have burgled a number of houses on my road over the years and have CCtv of 2 doing so on 2 occasions.

I've had 3 rock up to the house and were watching it. They left a note on a car in my drive.

The note had a estate agent phone number on it.
How weird is that but they were spotted by a neighbour.

No fan of Casey but I think he's spot on with these comments.

It's multiple kicks in the bollocks they want, not a bleedin apology.

Even if they gave them stables for there horses the horses would probably prefer to sleep in the horse trailer outside the stable .

If anyone thinks they need an apology then they need to do some serious searching on the likes of Google and YouTube.

Many many many articles and videoes of how they really carry themselves.....

Absolute boils my brain their carry on. I pass that empty site on a regular basis in Thurles and it's a disgrace. They contribute NOTHING to society and are a pain on peoples lives. They have headstones worth €50k each above in the cemetery in Thurles, 3 of them side by side, they can build what they want where they want and respect no-one else's graves beside them.

The situation with the houses in Thurles isn't a one off. Last year (2017) I was regularly delivering materials to a building site where houses were being built for tarvellers. One day i got talking to the gaffer on the site and he said in the original plans there was to be concrete to put down around the back and half way along the sides of the houses with the front and the remainder of the sides to be tarmaced. The intended occupants weren't happy with this and had threatened to burn the houses if the whole area wasn't concreted.
This gang of misfits made me mad, there they were getting houses built for them and they wandering around like good time Joe's while everyone worked. They'd pare the horses feet in the middle of the road and shout obscenities at passing traffic. The place looked more like a rubbish dump than a housing estate.
In fairness all of them don't treat their accommodation like that, my brother done some work in one traveller house and he said it was immaculate to the point of being better than his own house.
How do they expect the general population to feel about them when the situation is of their own making? One example of how the dislike of them has been passed onto the next generation of settled folk is my nephew. In national school he would have had no contact with travellers and at home he wouldn't have heard anything that would have given him prejudicial views. When he went to secondary he ended up in a class with 5 or 6 traveller children and now he is in his leaving cert year he dislikes travellers with a vengeance, all because of the carry on of the travellers while in school. He was delighted as each one of them turned 16 as they left school then to doss about.
If travellers want to change the mindset of people who are mistrusting of them they had better start doing something about it and make a more positive contribution to society.
One question I have is how do these people have cars, vans and jeeps if they are unemployed and have no means of income? I was unemployed for a while during the recession and only for I had a car previous to that I certainly couldn't have afforded to buy one, I had to use money from my savings for insurance and tax as it was.
To give credit where it is due there are some decent sorts in that community but it appears to be not just a case of there being always one bad apple in a barrel but rather a case of being one good apple in the barrel.
As for the culture the travellers so often refer to I wonder how many of them these days can speak or use the Cant, how many have the skills of their ancestors in the art of metalworking?
If they want respect and the support of the general population then if they're going to camp or live somewhere then keep the place tidy and engage with the locals in a positive way. When I was young they used to camp over the road every year when they used to bring their mares to be serviced by a stallion owned by a local settled man, there wasn't any hassle about the place. They'd call for a churn of water or a few spuds or vegetables. That was in a time when they had the horse drawn caravans that I only see now used by tourists in some parts of the country.
The use of the racist card by the travellers is a bit rich when in this day and age we have many people from different cultures living in the country who in the main are accepted. I personally would have no problem with traveller neighbours if they behaved in a fair and reasonable way like my settled neighbours. I've often been in the company of travellers who seemed decent enough types and I had a bit of craic with them.

There's a video on FB showing one of them mistreating a little pony at the Ballinasloe Fair, it's back is nearly broken with the big thick c*nt sitting on it and the rest of them just laughing.

Makes me sick seeing that kind of animal cruelty.

And yes they were pavees in the video before the Traveller defenders jump in.

I saw an ad on TV yesterday where you could sponsor a child to stay in school, not be a child bride and not be beaten into compliance in some backwater. Thing is we could apply every one of those to traveller girls.
How can anyone in their right mind condone this culture?

And yet people will insist on not criticising this culture for fear of not looking PC. They are that cowardly and brainwashed and in thrall to appearing a certain way.

He is absolutely spot on and well done to him - I hope the onslaught doesn't ruin him though. It could.

One day, they cut down the branches of some big old tress by these graves, because the birds were dropping from them onto these large headstones, all whilst drinking cans.

Staff and visitors engaged with them when carrying out this, and they carried on regardless with no respect or care in the world.

I voted no, because they don't deserve an apology.

Is the State apologizing to all travelers or just some? Because I definitely don't think the travelers that have battered pensioners in their homes, have convictions the length of a short novel, horrendously abuse animals (and anyone else who stand in their way) and are generally an overwhelming burden on society deserve an apology, do you?

Wanting an "ethnic minority" to cop the f*ck on, stop being backwards criminals and instead contribute to society along with being overall positive and valuable influences on those around them isn't being racist.

Finally someone has the balls to speak out against these scumbags, I wasn't going to vote in the election but this guy gets my vote.

I've yet to see one example of a traveler doing anything good for society. And no, fighting doesn't count.

Yeah but don't you understand....they are doing all of those things because we as a society have left them with no other choices....none you hear me...none

Or at least that seems to be the reasoning of some people

€300 of clothes from pennies? I'm surprised she could walk carrying that much.

Gravelly

38 previous convictions. I read somewhere she was getting something like €50k in benefits - what's that the equivalent of? €70k, €80k salary? And you have idiots defending her.

rovertom

She might just be the woman to wake up the nation to the nonsense that is going on.
I think traveller reps may eventually pull her aside cause she is in danger of bringing down the whole show and bring an end to the good times for them all.
You can do it too good and I think it clear that she is doing just that.

Since when does stealing €300 quid worth of clothes out of Penney's fall under the "live like every1 else" criteria?

I doubt "every1 else" has a conviction list the length of an a4 page either so...

She's the traveler everyone feels sorry for?

I'll apologise to them (for the nothing I did to them) when they apologise to me for nicking my bike when I was 12.

The only good traveler is a time traveler.

They have attacked a very sick and dying relative of mine on his way back from a hospital appointment.

I have been attacked on numerous occasions by the traveller community.

I have witnessed a traveller "mother" encourage her children to target a person with down syndrome, she said "theres an owl ejit get something out of him".

Every single person I have asked has told me they have had a negative experience with travellers to one degree or another, this proves they are far more likely to be involved in a negative interaction than the wider public.

Only a few months ago two drunken travellers were eating some burger king in a laneway just off of o'connell street, they seen me looking at them and tried to call me over, I turned and walked away as fast as I could, according to some people on this I should have just given them a chance? Do you think anything positive would have came from me going over to them?

The statistics regarding this group speak for themselves. Nine out of ten people have had a negatives experience and they make up less than 1% of the overall population.
