    I am putting forward the suggestion that we cancel the Bank Holiday for October 2007.

    The country cannot cope,its a skangers charter,decent lawabiding citizens are terrorised by thugs and skangers.

    Every knacker in the country uses it as an excuse to wreak havok on the law abiding citizens and the gardaí can do nothing.

    Take the oxygen out of the fire and smother it now before someone is killed and we have the usual caterwauling and excuses.

    We already did officially cancel halloween, not a single official event to mark the other international irish festival :mad: compare that to paddys day


    But seems as how this thread is all about pointless rants, i bet DCC will be funding the chinese new year up the yazoo while perfectly good irish festival days are ignored

    *shakes fist at passing chinaman*

    Well at least the chinese aint gonna blast fireworks out of buckfast bottles at 3:30 in the morning, aiming for houses, passing cars, and yer mates hole.

    We have now tipped the balance and become a country of morons, social welfare dependant, slack jawed, sky digital addicted dip****s.
    I dont think that intelligence could possible defeat this, its time for every meek, normal intelligent person to get a black belt in a martial art. Lets beat them at their own game!

    but how does cancelling the bank holiday stop the scumbags?

    do they go bed early on non bank holiday weekends?

    Ill support that. my mates and I were vandalised in Tallaght last night and rocks were thrown at the house. a mates car was done in and his stuff robbed by 7yr olds!**** sake!:mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    what we need is Gardaí capable of dealing with this. if only we could have enough Gardaí on the streets

    Better again, why not organise residents associations to herd the local undesirables onto their own bonfires. The amount of alcohol consumed by the underage darlings should contribute in no small way to the cleansing process.

    Stop whinging, and do something about it yourself.

    Holy sh!t 7 year olds, you're twice their size ffs! They'd run a mile if you pulled out a water pistol! We must live in posh Talafornia, fireworks were done by 11 and one knock on the door by invisible caller was the most high jinx we saw. :D Even the local bonfire is organised by the church!!

    We should also ban Junior Cert results night - and give each student their results on different days of the year.

    Belfast or Derry or somesuch place had a curfew of 9.30pm for all under 18's last night. Why wouldn't it work here? I'll tell you why.. cos people would whine about their kids 'the good ones' not being allowed out when they want.

    So do we want the masses to suffer because of the actions of a minority..

    Who goes - you decide!

    Take a chill pill, will ya. Why should law-abiding people have their fun cancelled as well?

    What we do need is a heavy Garda presence everywhere on Halloween night and, as the good Dr. Bollocko stated, more people should learn to stand up to the skangers. Next year we should all get fireworks and fire them at the knackbags. We could give prizes to whoever maims the most thugs in one night.

    Besides, my birthday is on the 28th of Oct and what you don't seem to realise is that the bank holiday is declared in my honour. I will not have my celebrations cancelled because of scumbags acting like scumbags.

    We should just shoot all knackers. This would have the added bonus of cleaning up tracts of land for new houses in some prime land, as opposed to the yolks that are built there now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,575 ✭✭✭✭FlutterinBantam


    Of course.!!!

    What we need is law enforcement which will allow decent people to enjoy the occasion without being intimidated by skangers and thugs.

    However we patently have not got that,and the first politician who calls to the Bantam's door will get an earfull.

    He'll be lucky I don't set the Rottie on him :mad:

    What we need is someone to teach these little runts about morales. In recent years the chav culture has crossed the Irish sea and infested the Irish youth. It's a disease worse than that of cancer. No longer can the Irish laugh about being alcholics, what used to be a novelty is now a severe epidemic among the youth. Obviously the parents of today are not parenting like they should and correct punishments being implemented. Why the hell are 13-15 year olds allowed out until 2am anyway?? When i was 15 my parents would have me home by 11 or i may have pushed it to 12 and they would at least try to know where i was. Nowadays these scumbags in the making are out drinking gallons of alcohol, taking all sorts of drugs and committing all sorts of crime. The young girls of today are sluts and the "good" ones are pressurised into conforming into what is now the majority. Our whole culture has changed, the youth are being given far far too much freedom, as much as i detest the catholic church's regime in Ireland, it can be clearly shown that this did allow the youth of the past to grow into mature responsible individuals and with the rapid decline in "followers" thus the chav culture has exploded.

    We need more guards, we need to target the parents of these children with severe action (fines, imprisonment). At the end of the day, parents should be in control of their children, teach them basic manners and morales. There are no more "good" areas in Dublin, the chav culture has spread put from the so called poor areas to the large middle class suburbs of Dublin.

    Last night here in Portmarnock, there was stabbings, massive brawls and fights. All of which were brought on by drink and drugs. At the moment the main reason for such fights here is because of the ever growing chav youth v the older fashioned more responsible youth (certainly not perfect people).

    Hold on, do you really think you can stop them? There's no way you can.

    Can you imagine the internet without these people whining? It would be an empty place...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,992 ✭✭✭✭gurramok


    No, dont ban Halloween, its our heritage and traditional custom.

    The gardai are there(where you say? :)) to deal with any unruly behaviour and its an enforcement problem which is root of halloween trouble!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,856 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    Sounds good.

    Let's cancel Paddy's Day too, cos there's always fights.

    And Junior cert night, cos kids might drink.

    And weddings, cos I don't like when people get rowdy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 68,190 ✭✭✭✭seamus


    I got up at 7am and I heard fireworks going off. I have to say that's a first for me.

    If only it were that easy.

    Was in town last night and I only saw one garda patrol car the whole time I was walking about. Didn't see any Gardaí walking the streets either. So its no wonder theres so much trouble, there was noone there to stop it.

    I saw a young guy getting beaten up near Stephens Green so I stopped the one Garda car I saw and informed them of it...they drove right on by. I was disgusted.

    I dont think that intelligence could possible defeat this, its time for every meek, normal intelligent person to get a black belt in a martial art. Lets beat them at their own game!

    It would be very bloody but i have been saying for years its what we have to do
    the trick is to use our intelligence set traps and such.

    for example i remember from when i was younger (underage) there was problems with these people you called them
    morons, social welfare dependant, slack jawed, sky digital addicted dip****s

    I like the word primitives myself anyway as i was saying i remember those types and some of my friends where attacked for no reason and you read all the time about people being attacked for phones and such.

    The trick is we have to lure these primitives into traps like for example have 1 small weak looking guy walking down the road (stumbling, acting drunk) with white headphones on (making it look like he has a nice I-pod or PSP)

    So then he just walks around for a little while, once he is attacked several people attack the primitive(s) who where trying to attack this man, the primitives would have to be killed of coarse. (filmed of coarse to prove that those primitives deserved to die) several operations like that in Ireland with allot of primitive fatality's would be a good start to solving the issues of the
    decent lawabiding citizens are terrorised by thugs and skangers

    We cant all complain we have do have to do something
    a mates car was done in and his stuff robbed by 7yr olds!**** sake!:mad:

    Lets take a poll -

    Who here would not care if Motley and his mates had of beaten these 7 year olds unconscious (they could have just filmed them doing the car damage before they attacked and then i don't think those kids will do that again will they?

    Right or Wrong to stop those kids yourself? remember don't say call the gardai we all know how long it would take them to get there

    An interesting idea, I had always thought of the idea of covering the ground in a orderless flammable substance so when the fire is lit then the entire field goes up however this is not a good idia because there is always the chance of innocent deaths which would lose support for the eradication of the primtives. Best only to hurt the ones u are 100% sure about
    Stop winging, and do something about it yourself.

    That does not help

    Unfortunately it wont work its too general (not all knackers are bad) and you risk casualties because they do possess a certain physical prowess.

    I think its more morales than anything else. I have to disagree with your stance on drink tho, your giving excessive underage drinkers a worse name, just like the knackers there are good ones. when myself and my friends where 15/16 we drank very late and drank too much as u do when your that age but we never attacked anyone. I cant comment on the drugs part i have only tried hash/weed and mushies both natural and such i cant comment on other drugs. Do they make u attack people for no reason? considering that primitives will attack someone when sober and not on drugs i honestly think it is a problem with there brain chemistry and morals.
    . The young girls of today are sluts and the "good" ones are pressurised into conforming into what is now the majority. Our whole culture has changed, the youth are being given far far too much freedom.

    If they allow themselves to be pressurised into conforming it means they always had a bit of that nature in them and peer pressure is NO excuse.
    Its not that they have too much freedom its that they haven't been shown the consequences of what they have done and they haven't been punished severely by this government enough.
    .We need more guards, we need to target the parents of these children with severe action (fines, imprisonment). At the end of the day, parents should be in control of their children, teach them basic manners and morales.

At the moment the main reason for such fights here is because of the ever growing chav youth v the older fashioned more responsible youth (certainly not perfect people).

    To be honest we dont need more guards, we dont im sorry, what we need is better trained and tougher gardai! That recent 11m herrion siezure was good news but i have to say the gardai are spending too much time on stupid irrelvent things. summences for pissing against a wall at 4am when the bouncers wouldent let my mate back into the pub. countless 1000`s of stupid things the gardai spend there time on if they just focused on the hard drugs and the petty the problem would be solved. How many of you ever read the paper and feel sick?

    ex.
    "Youth 16, Male arrested and brought to ratfarnham gardai station, suspect was arrested with 3 phones, Jack Danials and a pocket knife"

    He was not charged he was given a JLO and told to quit the drink and reform his ways!
    this is what the problem is in this country if u can do that and get nothing but a small slap on the wrist then people will do it, if that guy had of been sent to jail for 3 years some of his friends might have learned a lesson resulting in slightly less crime

    Mod hysteria does not seem to follow when people suggest killing bush?
    Why - Because allot of people hate bush (Allot of people hate the primtives asswell)
    It was wrong to suggest shooting all the knackers as i said earlier its too general.

    On Another Note

    Have you ever noticed that in the "rougher" areas the bomb fires are always larger? ive always wondered is this because there is so many of them or because there more orginised?

    The best way i can think of is since many "good" people wont use violence the best solution is a type of strike/protest.
    I know it sounds strange but bear with me if we orginised that if the gardai fail again next Halloween that there is a national strike/protest , everyone who has a problem with the primitives causing damage to innocent peoples property, attacking innocent people, hurting and hurting animals ect, what you all do is strike/protest have it orginised so that there is a work/school stoppage

    i know its sounds stupid but just keep reading, the primitives will love it they don't want to go to school or work so they wont go either. even the non-violent students would want a week of school.
    Then we move to working law abiding adults, wouldn't you all here like a week off? - I know i would

    There is no fear of being fired because such large numbers not attending work company's would not be able to maintain and besides im sure several higher paid managers and such have a problem with the primitives as well, and if massive amounts where fired the doll claims would be massive and the government would be unable to support that many people drawing welfare and the system would collapse (that is a stupid ridiculous worst case scenario i know) but im trying to show you that the country would not function with a orginised work stoppage in protest of the primtives

    And for some strange reason protesting seems to be acceptable,I cant stand protesters every time I go to town and there is a protest it can take hours to get out of town on a bus, Sure i dont mind if you protest but dont block my streets and my buses to get your point across. What would sound better on the news?

    five thousand people protest in city centre
    or
    a line of people 1/2 a mile long (single file) march in protest (actually now that i think about it i don't know how long 5,000 people would be in single file)

    Well that was allot of typing as u can probably tell im not a fan of random acts of violence.
    Well does the spell checker make it much easier to read what im saying?

    No don't just kill the underclass, picture this for a perfect world?
    massacre all the primitives and the racists on this planet not just this country?
    So what would we be looking at close to one billion deaths? Think of how good that would be for our planet?
    We would solve so many issues like hunger and overpopulation
