This happening on the green line and not the red line is quite the curveball. Having spent most of my life using the red line and only switching to the green recently, im surprised at this happening tbh
>Aanchal continued: “It was a nightmare for me. I was frozen with fear. I couldn’t do anything. When I told them I was going to call the gardai they said, ‘You f****** b****, call whoever you want. Nothing’s going to happen.’
And the little fuckers know they’re right.
My wife just sent me this article. She takes Luas to work and this could honestly happen to anyone. What would be the best way to protect yourself from the teenagers? What if they start hitting you? Can you hit them back or will you be charged with hitting a minor? I understand that the best way is to de-escalate and remove yourself from that situation but sometimes it might not be possible like when taking Luas.
We recently moved to Ireland and try to stay away from groups of teenagers, but sometimes there is no way to avoid them. Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing against teenagers per se. I myself was one at some point. It’s just that sometimes there are these kids who kinda look like they are looking for trouble. Disrespecting everyone on luas, smoking, putting their feet up etc. in this case woman wasn’t even interacting with them, minding her own business, yet she got involved anyway.
I just want to make sure that we can put ourself in the best position possible should the situation arise
Said it before and I will say it again, introduce zero tolerance before its too late. We are too soft on these sorts of crimes in Ireland and it is getting worse and worse.
Sad to read that no one helped.
*Slides my proposal to deport shitebags to the Blasket Islands across the table
There has been a huge increase in girls acting like this in the past 6 months on the Luas. 12/13 year old girls acting like complete scumbags as they know they cant be touched. Honestly the day for the general public to stand up for themselves is fast approaching. Its clear nobody in power has any interest in trying to keep the general public safe.
Jesus Christ, both her and her husband being victims of attacks in Dublin says a lot.
Ireland has a racism problem. Or maybe just Dublin; I’m not sure yet.
Shur da wee angles av no facilities or n e wer 2 play football so dey have to attack Indians to get de community vibe.
You have to lock this kind of vermin up. If they do something like this again lock them up again for longer. Soon you’ll have a situation where they learn that messing with people’s property or person will result in them missing their 20s. At the moment things like what’s described in this article are just allowed to pass
Introduce more protections for self-defence and this will quickly be stopped. People don’t want to get involved in an assault for fear of being charged with assault too.
is self defense even allowed? even if they are minors i don’t think allowing them to beat u up with no consequences is okay, they gonna mess with the wrong person one day, sometimes it isnt even about racism, they just know foreigners wont or cant do anything back to them.
Dublin has a vermin problem. I often wish police and courts were more like US
Surely more community outreach is the answer right ?
Should never have extended the green line south. Was much calmer before the extension connected certain areas to the line.
Everyone says they need facilities to keep them occupied, they’ll be used and destroyed by them. Just lock them up for fuck sake
Have to ask if this is the same bunch from several threads here recently.
Call a spade a spade: this sense of invincibility has been created by the dominant culture across law and society in regard to crime and young people. That has failed these youngsters and the country.
Damn my girlfriend wasn’t lying when she said Ireland has racial tensions as bad as 1980s Britain.
Be nice if the gardai stopped focusing on petty drug use and stopped these morons.
I always ask this and I want everyone as a team to do this.
Can we just raise it with our TDs that we are afraid of going outside because of these svumbags? And I’ve never seen any TD that’s left or right ever address the crime in this country
The article said the couple launched a petition but doesn’t give a link or any further details on it from what I can see? Which, unless I missed something, feels like a huge over sight
Teenagers scare the living shit out of me, they could care less as long as someone will bleed.
Cue them being caught, questioned, MAYBE put on trial, given a slap on the wrist, and they’re back in street by lunch time.
Lads. How about we make them flee somewhere where they need to claim refugee status. For the laugh like.
I’m just surprised it wasn’t the red luas. This is very strange for the green. Even stranger that nobody said anything, I’d have gone full human shield.
God I hope there’s a video and everyone can see these lil scrots
Time for vigilantes.
Canceling all social welfare benefits for the parents is the only way to stop this.
What scumbags
These kids need to be really taught a lesson!!!
Holy shit, that is horrible
There’s a petition mentioned in the article for stricter youth punishment, but no sign of the petition. Anyone know where I can find it? We seriously need a scote referendum
