    we're not that much better than travellers for fighting, drinking, dodging taxes, skirting responsibility, littering, being obsessed by money, and having poor literacy.

    Its entertaining to be fair, but its done in such a way that these morons could potentially be somewhat celebrities. Next thing we know Joe Joyce is taking over commentary from Jimmy McGee on Saturday nights pro box live, James Quinn will replace Pat Kenny on frontline etc :D

    Ah come on, you know what I mean. I agree that people in the rest of society do their fair share of dodgy dealings too but most people just go about their lives making the best of it and staying out of trouble.

    Jimmy McGee has openly talked about how he is in favour of the legalisation of bare knuckle boxing in the past.

    Thank god for subtitles :p

    How do they understand eachother?

    Are you for real ???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,106 ✭✭✭Technocentral


    It depends if the rioters are rioting about something that is a worthy cause. If an interviewer properly challenges a gang member as to why they go down that path, then fair enough.

    These people on tonight are just knuckleheads (pardon the pun) who want to carry on feuds forever, and sort them through violent means. Bad idea to raise their profile.

    I prefer documentaries where you make your own mind up, with minimum intervention from the director (like Earl Morris's films such as The Fog Of War), not ones were you are been moralised to, let people hang by their own words/actions, as an adult its up to us to figure out if these people are admirable or not.

    yeah i know exactly what you're saying, but i think we have a victimisation mentality just like travellers. Our problems are always someone elses fault. Very insular.

    In all fairness, the subtitles aren't really necessary! The odd word here and there is a bit different but other than that I understand them ok. Or maybe I can add Traveller to my list of languages...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,242 ✭✭✭chordtype


    A lot of these people went to the Alvarez school of fight predictions.

    Pick the name you can pronounce to win by knockout.
