And when you don’t see any the same people are like “you’d never see a guard around”
Jezus of all the things to be complaining about in Killinarden I’d have thought the gardai actually having a presence would be fairly far down the list.
Yep, there was nothing wrong with old community advice times.
Fucking politicians and their disregard of old community advice times.
They probably feel intimidated if they’ve no valid drivers license, tax or insurance and there’s a Garda car behind them.
The Gardaí are the intimidating creatures on god’s green earth
What people feel intimated? The ones who should?
Same cunts giving out about anti social behavior
What is a Dublin Bus patrol car (inset pic)?
If you don’t want them there are plenty of communities that’d gladly take some extra gardaí
It’s an absolute disgrace.
Man, we Irish rarely don’t contradict ourselves do we.
People : We need more cops on our streets.
Government : Ok.
*Government puts more cops on the streets*
People : Waaahh, that’s intimidating.
We really don’t know what we want.
Solidarity party, just a bunch of hard left loons, who’ll complain till the cows come home I imagine.Am I wrong?
People have always complained about everything. The problem these days is everyone’s complaint matters

Clearly unvetted fuck bags.
If this was the U.S, I’d agree cos their cops are fucking terrifying but the Guards? Nah, the more of them in areas where they’re needed, the better!
What newspaper is it? Are they really that illiterate?
I can kinda see how this could play out.
What people actually want is uniforms on patrol, on foot. Interacting with the community. Engaging with people.
What people tend to get is squad cars and vans parked up in spots or driving round and round the estate, engaging with fucking nobody.
There’s a massive difference between how people perceive a guard in a car/paddywagon, and a guard on foot.
One of those feels approachable, looking out for the place, etc. That would be the guard on foot, having chats with people, stopping into shops and shit for a word.
The other feels like there’s “shit going down”, isn’t approachable, etc.
I love to see them around and feel we even need more of them to control feral youth!
We need bus services back in West Tallaght 🙂
Only reason to feel intimidated is if you’ve done something wrong.
You Lucky, Lucky, Bastards.
People in Ireland have absolutely no idea how police behave in other countries especially the US. I really don’t want the Gards becoming anything like the police in the US but for the love of Christ these Gards are regular Irish people. Get to know your local Gard. They’re sound lads and they’re doing a very very difficult job.
Honestly, I’d feel much safer if there is extra Garda.
One Garda
The article was created and worded to get you lot irate. It worked! Dzopes
I’d wager that a lot of those who are intimidated are probably the type to avoid the Gardai at all costs
Why are we worried? If we need to call 999 and they send a squad car, even if the nearest one is at the neighbours house sitting down with some tea, they are still 5 hours out
As someone from an area that had some serious anti-social behaviour I can sort of understand this attitude.
The Gardaí sometimes would just stop and search all the young people who lived there all the time, including people who’d be well known as nice people who cause no trouble. Not sure how many here have been stopped and searched by the Gardaí for no reason other than how you look or where you are but it’s very demeaning and does nothing to improve the attitude of people to Gardaí. It does the exact opposite.
