Not a good look for the guards here. They seem to be the ones escalating the situation.
Hope to see more Garda action like this. Protestors on this issue have been conducting themselves terribly for nearly two years now.
It’s about fucking time.
Great to see
The calls of “women up front” and some other one shouting about letting in “murders and rapists” didn’t do them much good.
More response like this is what is needed. It should’ve been done last summer when they were out blocking roads.
It looks harsh but necessary given what you’re dealing with and to prevent it from escalating into a riot.
The camera person seems to have copped proper spray of the stuff near the end.!!!!!!!
I think it’s quite telling that the same people who are vocally criticising the Gardaí for escalating this situation were practically cheering the Garda response to George Nkencho.
The one in the full high vis lying on the ground before the guards even got there hahah
Walking a fine line…
don’t like to see riot squad go through people standing around but what was going on behind them… the other video of people starting fires and tearing down the fence and throwing stuff at the guards behind the gate
sorry lads can you fill me in? what’s going on here?
Interesting thread, very polarised views!
This issue is not going away, in fact it’s worsening. The tinder is set, another serious crime by a migrant will be the spark for all hell to break loose.
I can see 2024 being known for the “Summer of Riots”.
Watching the Video there is no violence until the Riot Police charge into these people.
Guards escalated when they should have deescalated. Poor policing.
A Policing strategy of swiftly meeting “force” with “maximum force”, sees the situation disperse, minimises prolonged engagements and allows for immediate command of the situation…public order unit arrives under 60 seconds they advance…fair play to the Guards we need to see more of this happening.
Blaming the Guards for heavy-handed tactics is a learned defence. It was a constant excuse used by English football hooligans back in the day, but sure, birds of a feather…..
Good to see the guards finally starting to deal with these scum
Protesters are only get more tooled up, protestors might attract a scumbag element, but there is a critical shortage of accommodation in the country and it’s only getting worse, the government don’t seem to be listening to the public and are insulated from that problem
Mouthy gobshites.
I take it this is the refugee accommodation arson gang.
I wish they’d do this for the coolock scumbags
If the government doesn’t dramatically change this will only get worse.
Today you’re calling them scum. Next year, if things continue until they finally affect you personally, you’ll be out and others who aren’t affected yet will be calling YOU sucm.
sorry, what’s this about?
Never thought I’d be glad to see people getting a battering from the Gardai, but here we are. What strange times we now live in.
They had em in the first half but once that mace/pepper spray came out it was all over.
Would have led with the pepper spray personally
Hey u/gee493. ,see here, people have started listening to you and recognise you for the threat you are.
It was disappointing to see such a lack of baton shots.
Lets just bulldoze a few hundred non nationals into your area and give them everything while you struggle to pay your bills and keep food on the table
Deserved. Should happen each time these scum try this shite.
Finally. That “peaceful protest” was blocking work needed on the building. This had vibes of the guards battering the English supporters at Lansdowne Road!
Good
“Women and children up front! Women and children up front.”
Human shield tactics really back in the mainstream these days.
That’s it. I’m joining the Gardai
Jaysus , there’s more guards there than there was in Dublin that night.
I know facts may not matter to the knuckledraggers but government needs to be front and centre with the stats that asylum seekers are not involved in crime.
Idiots go on about unvetted right wing doublespeak. How many of them are vetted? Certainly wouldn’t be letting many of them look after my kids.
To me it looked like the gardai were the aggressors. When were their cars dammed before or after this
Yeah we need a little more of this heavy-handedness. Gurriers been running amok lately.
Needs more pepper spray
This is like a day out for the guards. They love spraying some gobshite 😂.
Consequences 😏
Dear Shitebags,
We’d all love it if you really showed those pesky immigrants what’s what by emigrating to their countries of origin, and voicing your objections at source. You can do it!!
Regards,
Non-mentalist Irish people.
What’s the context
Unfortunately I see this spilling out of control and things are going to get a lot worse before they get better.
The Garda need more training. Total wrong way. Could injure their own members and even leave them in a unsafe position
