Ochlocracy is government by mob or mass of People

drunkmonkey

I'm getting a little annoyed with the way the country is being run, it's like gangsters paradise, if you can get a big enough mob together you can demand and do what ever you want. We've seen it in the Banks, The Public Service, Limerick, Northern Ireland, and now were seeing it on our streets with the rise of the mobs against head shops.
I'm not defending mob rule nor am i saying it's right but our Governemt owe it to us their people to draw a line in the sand and draw up some proper laws around what the people of this country can and can not do. Let no lobby group have any influnce in policy as they are only speaking for a minority with vested intrests.

I propose we hold a refrendum. Now what will we put to the people that puts and end to this mob nonsense once and for all?

Somebody is going to die shorlty and it won't be from bath salts it'll most likley by a fatal injury caused by a mob gone to far.

Hmmm. Interesting......... of course there is one fatal flaw in what you are proposing

The incumbent gobshites Government would actually have to do something right for a change.



Not going to happen.

two minor problems with that:

a) the governement themselves are a mob
b) the governement are incapable


otherwise a nice idea :pac:

The same theory holds for posting a thread with an anti-catholic bias here.

So we need to get a mob together to take on the mobs. We could call them the Anti Mob Mob

'Tis true. Ireland is a bit like southern Italy or Sicily... no wait, more like Colombia.

I couldn't agree more..
The mods have been getting away with this crap for long enough. It's time we did something.

The time for reason is gone. We killed the Celtic tiger. loot now while you still have arms.

It's run by mob rule, the bigger your gang the more turf you control.

We're not their people, they're our employees.


I would have thought the right to protest was fairly enshrined in the constitution.

The rise of the mob is just a clear example of the governments failure.
