    Crazy stuff.

    http://www.rte.ie/news/2012/0129/blackhorseavenue.html
    Gardaí are investigating the discovery of a woman's body in large holdall bag in Dublin this morning.
    The body was found by a passerby on Blackhorse Avenue at around 8.30am.
    A person out walking came across a large holdall bag with wheels and a handle near St David's Terrace and when they examined it they found the body of a woman inside.
    The woman, who was dark-skinned, has not been identified.

    Is it bad that I read the title and knew she was black?

    This actually happened just up the road from me. At first we thought it might have been a hit and run until we heard how she had been found.

    Horrendus, the poor woman.

    RIP.

    PS there's nothing to say she's black only dark skinned....that could mean Asian or Middle Eastern.

    True enough, I should have said ethnic.

    Regardless, rarest in peace. Poor girl. With luck it will be solved quickly.

    I didn't assume black at all from the description "dark skinned" :confused:

    does it matter if she's black or white or Asian

    A lady has just been killed or murdered, very disgusting.

    The person when found must be brought to justice.

    May she R.I.P.

    Tragic I guess. On a side note I'm hung over to **** and have really no emotion towards reading this. Interesting that booze can do that to you.

    ...fairly, considering the last person found stuffed in a bag here I recall was white.

    Well the area is now predominently African/Roma so it may not be a bad guess.

    I'd argue the word "predominantly". I wonder are you the blind person.

    Hilarious. I have a couple of friends who are in the Gardai and things have been very bad over the last six months. Not everthing gets reported and things are very bad in parts on North Dublin. Even worse than before.

    Perfectly natural. After all, white people never murder or become murder victims in Ireland. I thought everyone knew that.:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Anyway, why does skin colour matter to some people in this day and age? It's just a matter of a tiny quantity of a pigment called - I think - melamine. Everything else is the same in everyone all over this small planet of ours.

    The North Circular area might have a lot of African/ Roma residents, but the housing estates along Blackhorse avenue/ Aughrim street (where this took place) definitely have an Irish majority.

    This isn't even relevant. RIP, the poor woman, to have an end like that.

    Well your talking about the other side of the NCR, St.Davidson Tce run's from Blackhorse Ave onto Marlborough Rd (which apart from a block of private apts is almost completely Roma).

    From the junction of Marlborough Road to the park gates is Afro/Roma with a smattering of junkies through in.

    But you're right its not relevant to the discussion I was only putting it into context with Mini D's post.

    Probably a tiny woman, I remember back in about 2001 a Roma man was murdered and stuffed into a suitcase which was then thrown into the canal at the back of Croke Park.
