Has anyone said with strong gardai yet? That's my answer, with strong gardai.

To answer your original question they would call in the army, if the Irish army couldn't take you down our government would request help from our friends in Europe who have bigger/better army's.
Please dont go all king kong on us and smash up our country.

Pepper spray, baton, superior numbers, firearms, tazer, restraint, be bigger than you.

I'm 5ft 9inches, 20 years in. You aren't the first big asshole to think like this and If I do need backup, there's cops bigger than you with a lot more experience at fighting big assholes that I can hide behind and call you names while they do the work

Most big lads come quietly, in my experience.

Melanchthon

Saw a big lad that actually put up a fight take six guards to get him so the OP has a point. The answer is though they will swarm you and kick the head of you once they get you in the back of the van

I like the answer. Regarding size, there is a reason there are weight categories in UFC. If anyone could take out anyone then 155lb class would be fighting 240 and vice versa.

it is possible for anyone to take out anyone else - using the correct tools/techniques, the reason there are weight categories in fight clubs like UFC is to make it more appealing to the audience, "two evenly matched looking people - who will be the victor"

have a quick search for bruce lee and watch some of the opponents and how he was able to disable them.

no matter what you've heard before, SIZE DOESNT MATTER !! lol

I'm 6'4 so 2 inches shorter than you O Great One, but my Judo trainer a few years ago was 5'4 and could fling me about like I was a tennis ball.

The point the OP raises is valid, so I'm happy to address it.

99% of arrests are boring and uneventful. It's always the non-compliant ones that make for exciting telly.

It's as simple as this, if you resist, the Gardaí call in colleagues. If you're a physically big, strong, alpha-bro, then they'll just call in as many as it takes to bring you under control. At some point, you'll then become a danger to the public too, so Lassie might make a guest appearance if you really want to get hurt.

In short, as many as it takes.

Including Lassie.

Lassie's useless. Lassie just runs for help.

Now stick Cujo in there and we'll see that happens. Won't need anywhere near as many guards.

Size matters. End off, anything else is nonsense. Now that'snot to say there are not other factors at play, there are.

Bob Sapp was basically a novice kick boxer when he twice defeated one of the greatest of all time in Ernesto Hoost. Sapp was about 180kg at the time and simply manhandled the fecker, so yes size does matter at a certain point.

They would go for the collar bone first - easy to break and incapacitates easy, if your still flouncing about, it's your kneecaps next.
They have seen plenty of 6'6" blokes

There would be three or four of them with batons and tasers.

They'd just crack you over the head from behind.
Kneecaps are also a good one, or behind the knee so you fall over.

On the subject of arresting strong lads, like the "specimen" OP....
Don't kid yourself, the Gardaí are like a well drilled hunting pack when it comes to assholes!
They will use joint lock and control tactics, cuff you and **** you into the back of a wagon fairly quickly.


*I've been that asshole and had the hand surgery afterwards to fix the damage I caused myself by being an asshole and resisting a very lawful arrest
I'm not quite the man mountain the OP is!:eek:
But I am 6'5", strong and to top it off have years of doorwork experience behind me...:cool:
They still took me down without resorting to anything other than physical restraint.
The Gardaí do no not get enough recognition for their de-escalation and control skills.
Not everything needs a bullet...:mad:
Sometimes an asp is enough :pac:

You post just like Mr F; it's uncanny. Shame you never met him. He was 1ft6 shorter than you and was also a great character.

I'd imagine, you being a law abiding member of society, they'd say "I'm arresting you under section tumpty tump of the blah blah act, please get into the car"

Then you'd say "Surely there must be some mistake, I'm a law abiding member of society, but yes, let's discuss this at the nearest garda station, ideally in the presence of a solicitor".

Then you might say "Would you mind moving the seat forward a little please? I'm 6'6", and a bit squashed in here?"

At some point, depending on their standard operating procedures, they might ask you for your name and address, and also to put out your hands for handcuffs, which you'd duly comply with.

Can't speak for garda cars, but cop cars in the states have fixed seats that can't be moved forward. They're designed to be hard wearing, easily cleanable and uncomfortable.

I'm only 6'1 and I was squirming (and I was only getting a lift because I was lost)

Honestly, if a situation occurred where I was getting arrested, I'd kick up enough of a stink for the public order van......

And then someone punched Sapp in the face and found out he didn't like that so Sapp spent the rest of his career as a punchbag

I'm 6ft 5 and about 98kg in weight OP
I'm a black belt in karate and took up boxing when I was younger for years.
And all it would take is a single guard to arrest me.

If I was a scum bag it would take a few of them but there's no doubt they'd get the arrest with me badly battered and bruised.

Don't mess with the guards.

That is fine and all but do you think I would just stand there and wait doing nothing while you call for backup? I'd just run away and that's it and if you attempt to wrestle me to the ground, I'd just do an armbar submission.

Gardaí don't arrest people for only swearing in public. There aren't enough holding cells in the country to cater for that. But even if they did, why would you be resisting arrest?
