Teenagers with no value for life and no care for repercussions - **Read OP**

Scum begets scum so.

What that area needs is stronger policing and repercussions for anti social and illegal behaviour. There won't be anyone in that video without a roof over their head and food in their stomach.

What do you suggest is done for this area ?

A dirt bike track in the middle of the estate maybe. That'll definitely stop them acting like animals. There is almost nowhere else in the world (maybe Scandanavia) that does more for people like this - yet it's all somebody else's fault when the parents don't bother parenting. They have access to everything, and far more than people outside of Dublin.

Dublin is out of control. A sad lawless sight at the moment. I live and work here and observe very closely what is happening. There is no fear of the Guards. I was in town buying stuff for the GFs birthday a few weeks back and witnessed 3 crimes in 30 minutes.

The Guards need to be equipped better and given a bigger mandate to batter seven shades of shite out of youths like this. One family estate Hyundai sent into that crowd!!???

When the Guards do the paperwork and bring people before the courts they need to be backed up and not hindered in their role as Tommy 200 convictions is sent on his way. The force is nowhere near perfect as the ACU is discovering, but those that are good in the force need to be supported.

The justice system, that is the real root cause of these issues. An absolute laughable **** farce full of entitled wasters.

These kids are not deprived except for maybe in them and their parents heads. They live in Ireland for **** sake. They have every opportunity going. Visit the unsanitized Favelas of Rio or Sao Paolo and I'll show you deprived.

We need to reform the education system, try get kids early and ensure they get a good start in life. Start with the kindergarten & primary schools in the most troubled / deprived areas, class size of 10 or smaller, school starts at 8.00 with breakfast, kids on rota to help with the prep / cleanup. Same for lunch & dinner. School runs until 6 / 6.30 so kids are going home fed, with various activities etc interspersed throughout the day. No homework for outside school. Then move this on to secondary school, maybe a longer day to 7:00 / 7:30. Build in expectations of careers / apprenticeships / college from a young age. Build in social responsibility around the school. Kids responsible / help out with food prep / serving / cleaning etc. Same with the school facilities.

If it helped even a percentage of the kids achieve a life where they contribute to society it would be money well spent & money saved on dealing with them as adults

That's all well and good but the big problem is not actually the kids, its the parents. Parents don't give a crap about the kids and let them off to do what they want to whom they want with no consequences from the parents. If a scheme like you say and to its a good one but it would need to have buy in from the parents because you can bet the parents of some of the kids wouldn't be arsed getting up 8am to bring the kid.

Looking at the videos from last night surely the parents must know this is what their kids are getting up to but I bet if the kid was brought home by a Garda the parents would probably laugh and tell the Garda to F**k off with the little toerag laughing his ass off. Same if another adult was to catch one of them and drag them home to their parents more than likely the response would be the adult getting attacked. The parents and their kids both need to be held responsible.

you are basically suggesting that the state raises the kids, which would suggest the problem is the parents.

Yeah because they're ALL out acting the maggot, every last one, man, woman and child..

...and i generally call this lazy research, you ll actually find many of these social dysfunctions are generational, meaning parents have inherited their dysfunctions from their parents, and so on, and on, and on..... again, long term, and in many cases, lifetime professional supports and care is actually required to try deal with such dysfunctions, we rarely implement such supports, so, on, and on, and on.....it goes....

You need to be specific if you're being sarcastic in text, otherwise it results in confusion.

I have never seen your posts before today, so i don't know when you're saying something like "Scum begets scum so." you actually don't mean it. Tbh though, your attitude stinks.
