Garda potentially calling to house

Well he’s having no academic issues in college, is playing senior football with our club and goes out probably 3 times a month due to football commitments so if he decides to go to a festival and experiment I would be of the opinion that’s his call to make. If you think there aren’t dozens of people you know taking recreational drugs once in a while and leading perfectly normal lives then maybe we're both deluded.

Completely his call, I don't think he has a problem, don't know the fella. I know more than dozens of very successful drug users, my office alone is full of them.

But you're painting a picture of an innocent fella when he's not, and making it out he's hanging around with a bad bunch.

You weren't 100% deferential to the Gardai so you've caught the ire of the pro garda posters here, much like real life tbh. Don't mind them

I can just see him smashing away at the keyboard between attacks on what’s left of his junior box with a big beetroot Templemore head on him.

Ill eat a hat if a lad dealing enough to bring back 3g's of coke and another lad with the remnants of a bag of mdma are hanging round OP's brother to go to the most drug fuelled festival in the land and watch him sip a few tins. But sure its what young lads do, doesn't make it great but sure all walks of life are in to drugs, its a bigger thing now than ever.

I’m only a little bit older than him at 26, I’ve been there worn the t-shirt and done my own experimenting at festivals and the like. I’ve no doubt he’s not completely innocent, who is.

But given the choice I’d rather he got away with this, that mightn’t seem like the most virtuous outlook but there it is. Maybe he’d a few lines at the festival, maybe he didn’t. I’ve been there and the last thing I’d have needed was the Gardaí landing down at the door because one of your mates gets caught with a few grams.

He’s well adjusted and not an idiot, I’ve no doubt he’ll have his few mad years but will ultimately be fine just like I, and a significant proportion of my friends did.

I would echo this sentiment.

As a side note I wasn’t aware Life had a reputation for being particularly drug fueled. He did say the place was absolutely crawling with undercover Garda and the amount of guys caught was unreal.

the irish festival scene has canibalised itself into targetted festivals for certain groups , and for working class lads on drugs its life festival, I know drug dealers that won't even go to it for fear of threats from others or being robbed, it probably has the largest undercover garda presence of any music festival in the country.

Age and maturity are not the same thing

Bolded bit doesn't address anything I've said, more incoherent rambling.

I have no issue with the answers I've received and I'm in absolutely majestic form so don't be too concerned about me being upset. You'd be better off concerning yourself with why you spend your evenings on the internet implying young lads you don't know from Adam have drug problems.

He is not his friends keeper and in my opinion what has happened doesn't constitute probable cause to be arriving at his door, there is no prospect of him being charged with anything so surely calling down for scones and a chat is wasting their and his time.

Aware my opinion may well not be consistent with the law and ultimately I don't get to decide what goes but I feel it's overreach to land down and tell the parents of a young lad you can't demonstrate has done anything wrong that he was found to be in the company of someone who had. Then again the force isn't exactly known to be averse to overreaching their authority so I should probably tell the brother to put the kettle on and take down all his Maurice McCabe posters.

They could just call to ask questions regarding his friend who they may suspect of dealing drugs.

But he does have a drug problem, according to you he's anxiously awaiting a knock on his parents door over drugs.

That's a problem

you failed to understand what i said and i clarified for you , another poster even commented that you were misunderstanding and still you strive to take offence on your brothers behalf.

your not coming across very well or mature or genuine at this point.

and around we go again , im surprised the mods arent shutting you down tbh

Be surprised then. They won't call. Please update this thread within whatever timeframe you think is reasonable.

A 19 year old lad (adult in law) was searched in accordance with the drugs act. Nothing was found.

No reason at all to call to his gaf. Nor could they talk about it with his parents (he's over 18). They're not going to call to the house.

Your second attempt at backdoor moderation. Maybe you've the issues with authority, whenever you don't have it.

I'll post on Friday evening whether they showed, I will likely know the story with the other two lads as well. Poor divil with the empty bags parents have a tough week ahead, they've to find out he takes drugs and that he's braindead all in the one conversation. If you're gonna raise a criminal you'd at least hope he was a bit of a mastermind about it, getting stung on the way home with a bag of stuff he's already taken is bleak.

So sorry-messed up with the quote.
Dwarf shortage,I meant that there was no problem with your attitude but it may have come across as though I was defending someone else.

Your brother is 100% on the pulse system now by virtue of being with the lads who were nicked. Any time his name is entered into the pulse system in the future, this will flag up.

He needs to keep his nose clean for the next few years if this is to not be interfering with his life. He is only a young man with everything ahead of him. Tell him not to fcuk it up by being around these people, even if they are his mates. His mates will be able to do fcuk all if he's refused a visa to travel or misses out on a good job.

I'm not being sensationalist by the way.

Jesus Christ. If they call to the door can't he just tell the oul' pair he was witness to a harmless row or something at the festival and they were following up. He might be passing his exams in college but I take it that he's not taking any classes in "cop on".

A white lie is not much compared to getting involved in the oul' white stuff anyway.

Well on the positive side, at least he's not a litterbug! :pac: Fair play to him for taking the bag home to dispose of it properly rather than throwing it in a hedge or on the ground.


Must be yet another sign of the Green wave we're hearing about in these elections!

Ever since the plastic bag levy came in lads are very reluctant to waste a functioning baggie, you don’t know where the next 30 cent for a plastic bag is gonna come from.

Yeah, I hear that a lot of dealers complain about the hassle of having to collect and submit all those 30c they have to collect. An awful lot of paperwork



It was the main reason the Kinahans left and went abroad apparently.
