    I just went outside to get something from the car to find that the largest of the 4 panes of glass in my sitting room window was smashed. I went to bed at 2am and i noticed it at 9am so it obviously happened during that time. I am so pissed off that some scumbag/s can just do that and get away with it.. I am in such a humor that if I caught the bas*ards that did it I would do time for them........AGHHHHHHHH

    Sure they probably had nothing better to do... more facilities... or something.
    It's sickening... you can have nothing nice without some "madser" knob-end coming along and f*cking it up just because he can.
    Hope nothing was taken.

    Claim on the insurance,get a glazer, have it fixed and put it down to experience.
    Advise the guards
    Anything else.... forget it,you cannot win.

    Commiserations!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,050 ✭✭✭gazzer


    No.. thankfully nothing was taken. The window is double glazed.. the outer window was smashed.. I presume the muffled effect of only one pane smashing didnt wake me up.

    I am just so pissed off.. From people pissing in the estate in broad daylight to people throwing their beer cans everywhere to drug dealing going on (all this happened yesterday) in broad daylight i wonder why the fcuk I am spending 12 hours a day comuting and working to pay 1200 a month for a mortgage in a house in an estate that is beginning to resemble Basra.. I cant wait for those TD's to knock at my door.

    Between all this and the A and E fiasco my mate went through (see my other post in the A and E thread) this whole country is a joke..

    12 hours a day commuting.!!!!!

    gazzer, you are learning the hard way about irish(and any other) society where social responsibilites have largley broken down.

    Who are the people pissing in the estate.... have they parents?? do they care??

    Drug dealing...do the cops know???

    Littering.... are they the same people as the pissers?? is it just only one or two houses???

    If I couldn't see an end to that kind of unsocial behaviour I would be selling out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,050 ✭✭✭gazzer


    @ FlutterinBantam.

    well the people pissing, littering and drug dealing are all around 17,18.. they are from the estate right beside where I live.. the thing that really pisses me off is that my estate has a management company even though there are mostly all houses in the estate.. we have to pay 700 a year for litter removal, graffitti removal etc that these scumbags are causing yet there are 4 different ways into our estate from the other estate.. We are not a private estate.. we are very open to all this anti social behaviour.

    The parents of these thugs for the most part are scumbags themselves.. they dont care what their kids do.. The guards know what is going on but no sooner is one of the scummers arrested they are out again a few hours later causing more trouble.

    My other's half's new Alfa Romeo was jumped all over a few weeks ago. A ton of money worth of damage, it broke her heart as its her pride & joy, and all so some scumbag could have fun.

    Hssss.... exactly as I thought.

    Man ,you are in a difficult position and unfortunately the only advice I can offer right now is not to try to take them on yourself.

    best of luck son, don't let it get to you too much.

    It annoys me to no end, because really what can you do about it? SFA, unless you want to be a criminal yourself. My commiserations.

    @ DublinWriter... I live out in Dublin 15, Mulhuddart... fast becoming scumbag capital of Dublin.

    I didn't think it was getting that bad, another place to cross off my des-res list.

    I hope things sort themselves out for you gazzer, it's a head-wrecking situation to be in.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 10,661 ✭✭✭✭John Mason


    i feel for you mate, but unfortunately, you just have to suck it up and deal with it. if you have a job, pay your taxes and mortgage and dont cause any problems you are fair game to be bullied and trampled on by the small of minority of scumbags which seem to run this country. my lodgers car window was put in by some 14 year old scum bag for no reason whatsoever and the cops just said "hard luck". The scum have taken over now, they are out breeding the rest of us which means the rest of have to work harder to pay for their social payments i.e. holidays, hair extension, gold and so ergo we are actually working for them - the bastards


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,734 ✭✭✭Newaglish


    Typical stereotyping! You all presume it was some scummer in a tracksuit called Anto who smashed the window, but perhaps it was.... I don't know, a Judge called Alphonsus O'Quinlivan!


    Really though, there's nothing you can do!. The guards do try their best but they really are fighting a losing battle. Every arrest made for something like this is just hours of work and paper-pushing to finally get to a court appearance which has no possibility of jail time because there's just no space in the prisons and the laws employed in our justice system are just not strong enough to punish people.

    Move to bogland! That's my advice

    Thats where I live. It aint the worst place.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,584 ✭✭✭shane86


    We talking the Ladyswell/C`Curragh border here OP? Aye, I was hanging out by the chip van the odd time waiting for an order, the kids of about 11 or so waiting for their food decided to kill the time by seeing who could get the best whack of the C`Curragh windows :rolleyes:

    Have to be honest though, Ive seldom to never seen the open air dealing you mention in the suburbs (well, obviously Ive seen people make pick ups in public places, but its not exactly hanging on the corner serving passing cars like on The Wire, unless theres a feckin huge surplus of drugs right now). Yid see it a bit in the inner city but I dunno, just not much out here. Whered you see it, and how long were they at it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,050 ✭✭✭gazzer


    Shane86.. im talking about the Dromheath/Castlcurragh border.. Ive seen drug dealing go on a good few times in the last few months as have my neighbours.. we had a meeting about it a while back.. Granted its not every day (maybe a couple of times a week but I suppose I notice it more as it is happening about 10 feet from my window.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,050 ✭✭✭gazzer


    @Slurms.. ah i know not all of Dublin 15 is bad.. I shouldnt really be generalising.. the estate I live in though is starting to get really bad.. especially in the last few months.

    I'm in Mulhuddart my friend. It aint the nicest place in the world (just a few weeks ago a guy I know was kicked within inches of his life at the Mulhuddart bridge where the N3 was. Would've died if gardai weren't driving by), but it's by no means the worst. Though you're right it really needs to be sorted out.

    I live in Mulhuddart also and my dads car window was put through for no reason. Also one of my neighbours had two guys enter her house and rob her heart medication and the car keys and then proceed to rob the car at 3am. They forced their way in and threatened to kill anyone in the house if they didn't do what they said. Totally random attack.

    There are regular drug deals going on outside my grandmothers house (she lives in Drumheath). There was a car burnt in her garden also. We came out of the Spar beside Castlecurragh the other day and some ahole decided to start crashing his car into a wall.

    It's a pretty rough place alright. My advice, get out while you can. I've been here for twenty years and it's only getting worse.

    I live and grew up in Dublin 15. Neither me, nor anyone I know (including guys) would walk through the Mulhuddart area after dark. There's one particular estate that I wouldn't go near in daylight either.

    Unfortunately it may end up going that way as the law doesn't seem to be doing anything about this type of carry on. It has happened in the past, I live in D11 and there were these type of Vigilanties going around many moons ago, now it's getting bad here again and people are getting really pi$$ed off, unfortunately when people take the law into their own hands it only seems to escelate the situation rather than resolve it and some innocent usually get's hurt. Sometimes I despair of what is going on especially listening to all the politicians at the moment saying vote for me I'll sort it out when you just know they couldn't give a fcuk !:mad:

    Ok Calming down now...going to my happy place....:)

    The PD's slogan for the election is "Dont throw it all away". That one makes me laugh when it is obvious in ireland that the people who try to do the decent thing in society are screwed over, to pay for the scum that make their lives miserable. There is no real effective way in ireland to deal with scumbags, cowards, house parties, greedy landlords, noise, lunatic driving, social welfare spongers, traffic, planning, fraud, grafitti, management companies screwing you, estate agents screwing you, builders not adhering to any building regulations, water with diseases in it in galway, Martin cullen, litter (the place is disgusting) etc etc etc. The place is like an unregulated capitalist sh*thole where you are screwed if you cant sort ever problem out yourself. TBH, I and alot of people I know will jump ship from this craphole as soon as. Its mad when I think of the 80;s (when I was a school goer) and the joy you would have if you managed to finish school and get a job in the country you were born in instead of working the sites in london or europe. It was like a pipe dream. Now that this is the case the place is a feckin nightmare.

    Seems like I'm not the only one who needs their happy place :D

    Unfortunately I have to agree with everything you say :(

    SO TRUE ....... yet so sad at the same time. The bit about the 80's brings back bad memories, entire generations disappeared, which still fills me with resentment to this day. Now that I am able to work here, I am no longer sure that I want to. The litter and filth annoys me too, its unreal.


    To the guy who had his window broken, get CCTV, I bought a system for 600 euro after I had problems with scumbag vandals. So at least I have a chance of knowing who is doing it, if it happens again. But they spotted my cameras, and they wont stand around near my place now, activity near my gaff has dropped off to almost zero, thanks to 'Big Brother' and fact that people dont like to be filmed.

    The problem with Mulhuddart is that there aren't enough Gardai, the Gardai won't come up near the place sometimes because they get intimidated and the people who call the Gardai also get intimidated.

    Its the same everywhere. Even in small towns down the country. I think they are known as trailer trash in the US. But someone said to me recently, maybe the US trailer park trash are descendents or the Irish, maybe we brought all that to america ? scary thought !.
