1. A Garda knew of a farmer who lost his gun and sure it’s was just sitting in storage.

2. Someone’s getting promoted

3. I wonder will we hear as much about this as we did the famous bicycle.
   You know, breathless gushy reporting from Paul Reynolds every hour on the hour for about a month. Long melancholy monolgues about how it was during Covid, and the guard in question – God bless his heart – gave it to a lonely man who live all alone, and all he wanted in all the world, the poor elderly man, who the noble gentle kind guard looked after him so he did, all this poor man wanted, and it wasn’t being used so it wasn’t it was gathering dust so it was and they had tried to auction it off but nobody wanted it so
   And what was it that the guard gave this poor man, Paul?
   It was a shotgun he gave him
   Thanks for that Paul

4. Jaysus one might think the Gardai actually aren’t out here trying to stop criminals. They are the criminals who occasionally have a quota to fill

5. We really need to get our shit together as a country.

6. In the guards defence it was just sitting there collecting dust 

7. Chain of custody working well there/s

8. I’m starting to think our Gardai are a lil crooked haha
