The lad looks well binned. Irish justice system working well.
Why are they still doing this, arresting people smoking a joint at home. Court appearances for 5€ of cannabis, 0.25g…
Garda did the right thing by keeping €5 or that evil and dangerous substance off the streets, out of hours and all, great to see the justice system working 👏
Sorry now, but what’s his name ? Kiggins ? That’s surely a made up surname.
Craictose intolerant guard ha?
Now any time someone googles that guys name it will come up next to “drug user” in a news article because he smoked a plant when he was 20, which is legal in a growing number of countries around the world. That’s gonna result in some of his job applications being thrown out in future.
All that while Scramblers are roaring trough Finglas every weekend night – nothing can be done
Guards are just jealous that the only drugs they can do are boring old booze and expensive coke. Can’t ever relax with a spliff because the shit gets detected in the system weeks later, whereas coke disappears after a long weekend. Lot of cranky guards out there, gumming for a line.
being brought in for 5 euro worth of weed is ridiculous, it should already be decriminalized by now
It’s a Health led approach depending on which pig ignorant garda you meet. Can we please get some clarity on how AGS are implementing the adult caution scheme aswell. There’s far too much discretion given to Gardai with this scheme. Just stop criminalising people for cannabis use ffs, progressive country my arse!
“Health led approach”
That Gardai would want to get a fucking grip, off duty an all, sad fucker.
What a shit heap of a country – let’s hope there’s change soon. This is just fucking pathetic, €5 worth 🙄
So does the Guard have a name or what?
We can afford to put someone through court for possession of a roach but we cant afford social housing and we need to decrease the minimum size of apartments
Waste of taxpayer money
A little home spliff is a terrible thing.
Now go have a dozen pints
What a fucking bum harassing the kid over smoking a single joint in his house. The man was off duty and out of uniform as well, so he clearly just wanted to be a prick
What a waste of the tax we pay
Weird. I can’t access the article so maybe there’s greater context around this, but gardai generally tend not to directly shit where they eat in my experience, especially for chickenfeed like a fivers worth of weed.
The law in this country 🤣
Must have been strong stuff if the big Garda head wasn’t obvious to him
Sad cunt of a guard.
So a citizens assembly was set up for what? Just to waste time? When are they going to take the finger out and change the outdated laws. Bunch of cowards !
This is absolutely ridiculous now. I live in Spain. I don’t smoke myself, but it’s completely legal to smoke in your own home and grow two plants for your own use. Can any politician show a bit of backbone and get the ball rolling to get the law changed.
just switch to more damaging cigarettes and everything will be ok
I see this weekly on the sub and comment similarly each time.
This lad had 5 euro, not even the cost of a pint now, an incredibly small sum. For those who don’t smoke, this is like having a 25 ml of your pint left.
Look at the money spent on bringing him to court. Look at how an off duty guard imposed himself.
Look how this lad will be known as a drug user for the rest of his life.
Something really has to be done here.
What a waste of money. The lawyers are lapping it up.
It’s legal in North America, alot of Europe and we have HHC on the shelves.
But they will never change this
Imagine what it cost to send him to court for that. Absolute joke.
Is that a dresscode?
The Gard wanted to make an example of him after the scuffle.
A huge waste of everyone’s time.
The misinformation around cannabis in ireland is actually gross, especially recently i’ve noticed them leading hard on the “weed induced psychosis” making it sound way more common than it is. What happened to trust the science guys?
