    I was walking up James street a few mins ago and from a distance I noticed a Garda squad car had pulled in a 13 bus. As I got closer I realised they had taken an African woman (not having a go at African women here) and her buggy off the bus. I was watching this for about 30 seconds by the time I was close enough to hear what was being said,but the lady was giving out and shouting in the Garda face. When I walked by the lady was screaming " no I havent got a name". She then flagged down the next bus that passed and got onto it with both Garda just looking at each other with I what do we do here kind of face.

    All I can say is great excuse , I am gonna try that if I ever have a run in with the law!!:cool:

    This is the best/worst excuse I've heard from one of my mates - he answers the door sweating buckets with one sock on and one sock off, the other sock is in his hand, his t-shirt is tucked into his jeans. He told us that he ran so fast down the stairs that he built up a sweat and was using his sock to wipe the sweat off his forehead! Yeah... or you were havin a w*nk mate! :rolleyes:

    So no matter who was in the right or wrong you're going to pick the side of the person who's Irish just because they were born here?

    Are there still bannings for posting "that's the joke" references? If so...I wasn't going to!

    I think hondasams sarcasm went a little high there. :pac:

    then why bother mentioning her race/nationality if it has nothing to do with it?

    To avoid the Garda questioning she said she has no name
    They obviously asked her name

    Why mention the number of the bus? I always suspected he had issues with the number 13 bus.
    He's 13busist, we have to stamp out 13busism.

    I wonder why she took her buggy with her, doesn't she know she can get them for free? It must have been full of drugs or illegal immigrants

    racism/even bothering to point out somebody's race when it's not relevant is a little bit different to bus number discrimination

    Why not? Maybe he shouldn't have mentioned it was a woman either. Something about women not being able to drive themselves. People will find a a way to be offended at anything.
    And the people that will find offense at someone being called black will be middle class and white.

    I think it's actually another one of these 'Anti-Women' threads on AH, as OP had no real reason to mention the gender of the person involved.
