    I have lived in Dublin and travelled/lived/worked in other cities in europe. Dublin is not the worst in terms of street criminality by a long shot.

    It's funny though - if the OP was about roma street criminality and looking to exterminate all of them the OP would probably have gotten infracted by now.

    Note that I didnt say anything about street criminality, i was talking about scumbagary or if I was living in the 50's I would be saying shenanigans, mischief or tomfoolery, a junkie asking someone for spare change is not a criminal act, harrassing tourists with verbal abuse is not against the law hence why the gards did nothing about it just told them to move along, they weren't breaking the law. But as the OP said, this kind of action gives dublin a bad name and makes a tourist's experience over here unpleasant. Simple as that.

    Avoid dublin city. Simple.

    Guards really don't care or have the will to do anything about the scummers. If more people avoided the city centre cos of junkie scum then business would lose out and put pressure on council/government/guards etc. Not gonna happen though so best to stay away.

    One advantage to being a junkie is knowing guards won't go near you

    Seriously? You think Dublin is so bad that you'd actually avoid the place altogether :rolleyes:.

    :D.

    I'm in town on an almost daily basis and i've yet to encounter this dublin you speak of.
    Sure, if you go to certain places there are a lot of drug addicts, but in all my years they've never impinged on me in any way. I'm not saying dublin is completely safe (I know many people who have been mugged/attacked), but on the whole the problem's nowhere near as bad as many people think.

    It seems no matter how good thing are, people will always be calling for tougher measures. If tougher measures were the miracle solution people think they are then do you not think they'd be in force already?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,854 ✭✭✭zuutroy


    I've lived in Dublin all my life and been a regular visitor to town for >15 years and have never once been approached, threatened etc by anyone, at any time of the day or night apart from people looking for a euro at the bank machine or whatever. That includes walking home from town through North Strand, 5 Lamps etc.
    Only last Saturday night I was sitting on the boardwalk at 2am for a couple of hours and the element of a threat if any came from the paralytic middle class types more so than scumbags.
    Places like Barcelona, Brussels, Paris, NYC are much dodgier imo.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,650 ✭✭✭sensibleken


    put them all in adamstown and dismantle the luas red line. then take their crisps and slag their mas

    in fairness dublin used to be worse. i was mugged 4 times in town when i was a teenager. twice by the same bloke, once outside the 4 courts. havent had a spot of bother in the last 10 years.

    just dont go north side

    I was in Dublin city today and encountered a large group of Spanish students. We are all accustomed to them coming over every summer to learn English. They are a major boost to our economy (especially in the current climate) and from my experience they are generally good mannered and far better behaved them their Irish counterparts when abroad.

    Anyway, the students were just wondering down the road chatting and laughing. They weren't bothering anybody.

    As they walked on to O'Connell street , a group of about 5 sweaty pale faced tracksuit wearing junkie scum crawled out of a side street and started shouting abuse at them. 4 men in their late twenties and 1 fat beast of a heroin pin cushion. They used foul language, and one even threw a can at the frightened students. The beast woman even started on a young Spanish girl who was no older than 13!!!

    A Gard who observed the situation simply told the scum to move on! It got me thinking about the scum infestation in out city and how they are basically ruining it , not only for Irish people, but for tourists who are pumping money into our economy.

    In order to protect our much needed tourist income we need to clean up our streets and eradicate the scum that control it. You can't even use the liffey boardwalk on a summers day because its taken over by junkies and scum bags drinking cans and causing trouble.

    If it was up to me I'd exterminate them as part of a Government process of national cleansing. Of course everybody is too politically correct here to entertain this idea, so I'm interested in hearing other solutions. How can we clean up Dublin and make it a desirable destination?
















    It happens to the American tourists also. Tons of them come over to Ireland each summer to discover their heritage.

    I was in McDonalds with my girlfriend recently and there was a group of Americans sitting behind us chatting away to each other.

    For absolutely no reason this junkie, sitting by himself across the room, starts screaming at them "Ya fookin' neards". The Americans were clearly shocked but none the less continued their conversation trying to ignore him. He kept shouting abuse at them on his own from across the room.

    He called them "wiggers" and one of the black americans got up and gave him the finger. The junkie started on him and the black guy told him "he'd kick his racist ass". All the americans then got up and left in disgust after the junkie tried to justify himself.


    It just turns people off going to Ireland when theres hordes of those junkie wastes of life strolling the streets acting as if they are intitled to an opinion.

    I'm not suggesting some sort of Final Solution, but......

    I am the same. Pretty much never had a bad experience.

    Yet, when you read some of the posts here, you would think that Dublin is the most dangerous hell hole know to man where the cops do nothing and the junkies rule the streets.

    I agree with this, for such a small city the magnitude of scumbags is unreal!

    those spanish students are cheeky little ****s.

    last week i seen THEM start on a group of 5 lads here in leixlip. spain had qualified for the final, they were shouting at everyone. the 5 lads were walking past getting shouted at when one clipped him accross the head and they all laughed. they got a hiding then from the 5 lads though! good enough for them.

    last yr too was getting the train to croke park, the trains do be packed, got on at leixlip and all the spanish were sitting on the floor and wouldnt get up when asked. it took a few of us to get very aggressive and threatening with them until they were scared into getting up. we came off looking like the bad guys too......feckers!

    I don't actually think they're any different to a group of Irish kids the same age abroad. Take 40 Irish 14 year-olds and plonk them in Spain and they wouldn't be too different, a bit quieter maybe but that's about it.

    Their is no tough measures in place, what's the point of the guards arresting scumbags when they know judges are almost always going to be incredibly lenient on them. It's a disgrace that theirs not a lot more Guards patrolling town but sure what would be the point when judges keep going easy on scumbags. The problem with Dublin is the justice system does not want to properly punish scumbags, sure they think they all come from bad backrounds and don't know any better

    I don't look anybody in the eye when I'm walking about the centre of Dublin. Too many filthy scumbags ready to start a fight. It's a pity because they're ruining the city for everybody.

    Yeah it's a good idea, and schools will tell them a few dos and don'ts but the problem is that 40 kids abroad together, quite possibly for the first time, get excited and get carried away.

    Another problem is that often a group will come over with a teacher from their school, but the teacher treats it as a holiday and doesn't help control the kids. Therefore the kids feel like they have a free reign to do what they want. When I take a group on tour, I'll be the one telling them to clear a footpath or keep the noise down in a museum, but they will pay more heed if it comes from their teacher, who too often is off doing their own thing.

    What do you think they should be told in an orientation class? I'd have no problem telling a class a couple of pointers.

    Anyway I never denied that they're annoying, I initially posted in this thread because I felt people might not actually realise how much money these groups bring into the country. If we treat them like sh1t, they'll stop coming. Already there are some areas where my school had to stop housing students because they were being attacked by local scum.

    If you go over to Tripadvisor and read reviews of Dublin city by visitors, a significant number of reviews mention beggars and general scumbaggery on the streets and it gives a very negative impression if the town (price is the second big negative mentioned, but that's for another thread)

    The fact of the matter is that it wouldn't take all that much to address either, a garda presence that didn't sit on it's far arse waiting for the next shift to arrive would do it. Unfortunately there seems to be no willingness to do anything about the problem, which is why the chavs feel like they can behave as badly as they like with absolute impunity.

    To be honest the only 2 I can think of are

    a)
    volume in public places and
    b)
    how they treat public spaces (ie footpaths or as someone else mentioned by sitting on the floor of a train).

    Those are the only 2 areas that would bug me. Thing is they have been coming here for at least 20 yrs so you would think this would be sorted by now.

    Other things that might tick off some people would be groups of spanish students sitting over a single drink in a bar but that is not one that ever affects me personally and you could probably say it's a cultural difference anyway.

    From what you are saying there it might be an idea to put some of these down on paper and send them to the teacher in advance of the trip for them to pass them to their students.

    Ideally it's probably the kind of thing that the language schools - plural could forumulate together based on their collective experiences - they should probably include things such as areas to avoid and this would probably be of use to the students safety in their leisure time too.

    I agree of course - as 99% of other people do that verbally assaulting or intimidating them by throwing cans of beer etc is totally out of order.

    If it were up to me people doing that would get a spell in prison (and I don't mean suspended prison I mean real prison).

    If it's not in the Saturday magazine yoke this week, then definitely the week after.

    From reading it, I learned that if you want something done about criminals, you are probably a moronic yokel and should start drinking fine wines and donating to amnesty instead.

    They seem to be drawn to Spar shops so we could slowly close down Spar shops in the city centre and re-open them gradually further away until they are in Dun laoghaire boarding a Stenaline to England. I think Castro done something similar over in Cuba.

    Yay for reading a lifestyle & culture magazine to decide what to do about crime and anti-social behaviour in Dublin!

    Also good places to learn what to do are Night & Day in the Indo, The Culture magazine in the Sunday Times, the tv magaize in the News of the World and property section of the Sunday Tribune.

    I'd agree that both of those things could be addressed, and if I'm out on a tour with a group I'll shush them if they're being excessively loud or get them to move if they're blocking space, but there are problems with both.

    Firstly, Spanish, and indeed Italians, are louder by their very nature. You notice it walking around in either country that everybody talks very loudly and animatedly. Students coming over may be either incapable of breaking a habit they've formed over their entire life, basically yapping away at the top of their voice, or may simply refuse to do it as they don't accept that it is a problem.

    The second problem I think stems from the sheer numbers of them that travel. It's very hard for a big group of kids not to take up a lot of space. This is probably partly down to greed on behalf of the schools. Ultimately the schools care only about profit, and this means bringing over as many kids as possible.

    Maybe schools should only be allowed send out groups of a max of 20 at a time? As it is, I've had to bring 50 kids on a tour around Dublin, which already as a city is quite neglectful of pedestrians IMO, and it is simply too many people to move around.

    Walking down Nassau Street at rush hour passing all the busy bus stops with 50 hyperactive teenagers is unfair on the general public, as they have to negotiate a way past a pack of walking vuvuzelas, unfair on the guide and unfair on the kids.

    Last time I was in Rome, my friend got his wallet & camera robbed, when in Barcelona two of my friends got wallets, cameras, watches and one got his runner robbed while on the metro, in Madrid a protest turned into a full scale riot between the knackers from the suburbs & the cops; In San Francisco, I saw one person getting shot and another getting stabbed my a midget, also junkies everywhere.

    Nothing like that has ever happened to me in Dublin.

    No, true story.

    It was about 2 in the morning on the corner of Market & Sixth and there was a huge crowd watching something. Went to have a look and it was a fat man getting bashed by a midget with an umbrella. Everyone was laughing. The guy beside me made a comment about normally having to pay for this sort of stuff. Very surreal. Then the fat guy got the umbrella of the midget and started to hit him. So the midget stabbed him. Everyone stopped laughing and ran.

    I don’t know if it's feasible to suggest that we initiate a “final solution” against the entirety of the filthy and scaly demographic. I do think, however, that it would be a good idea if the laws surrounding the killing and injuring of such people were to be sufficiently relaxed for the protagonist in the following little story to go unpunished.

    One day I was on the DART. I had my iPod turned up to maximum volume in a vain attempt to blank out the skirls and snarls of the scaly scum in the adjacent set of seats. They were shuddering, and stumbling, both over each other and their words. Their drooping folds of mottled, malodorous skin and yellowed, crooked teeth were so disgusting that I allowed myself only an occasional glance in their direction and only for the purpose of ensuring that they were not about to hurl an AIDS ridden syringe in my direction.

    A few stops later we arrived at Sydney Parade station, and a couple of stand up gentle men wearing Leinster rugby jerseys, chinos, Dubarry shoes and with blonde highlights in their hair entered the carriage. They shot a few contemptuous glances at the scaly individuals to my right, and decided to stand rather than sit near them. They were in the middle of a conversation when all of sudden the scaliests, pink skinned, bloodshot, tattoo emblazoned members of the scaly group, wearing a Celtic jersey so tight that every shivering contour of his bloated torso was accentuated for all to see, got up.

    He scuttled up towards the tallest member of the Leinster jersey wearing folks and tapped one of them on the shoulder. He looked around with utter contempt in his eyes.“What the fu%k do you want, Pal?” He said, pushing the scaly scummer away and spitting in his face. The scaly scum bucket recoiled a few seconds later, his reactions most likely dulled by a combination of hard cider and heroin.
    “S-ss-s-sorry bud.....I was just...askin if you have a li?” His words rolled around his mouth like slime, and poured from his lips like raw sewage from a broken sewer. The Leinster jersey wearing fellow, laughed to his friends and slapped the scummer in the face, removing a couple of scales in the process.
    "You, loike, totally just made the biggest mistake of your life, Pal!” He snorted, as he pulled a screwdriver from the pocket of his chinos. He grabbed the scaly fellow by the shoulder and stabbed him in the face about forty times. Scales, blood and heroin flew everywhere. The scummer eventually fell to the floor, dead.

    "That’s what you get for messing with me” Said the Leinster jersey wearing chap, as he turned to be high fived by his friends, before turning back to kick the scaly corpse at his feet a few times. The DART stopped and the scalies ran scared.

    "Yeah, you better run” Said another of the Leinster party, with a plump belly and a pair of aviators, shaking his chubby fist in their direction.
    To my horror he was picked up by the police at the next station, and I later found out he got ten hours community service, an injustice the like of which I have never seen....

    The fact of the matter is that it wouldn't take all that much to address either, a garda presence that didn't sit on it's far arse waiting for the next shift to arrive would do it. ]

    Hey show some respect . The guards have their hands full catching people going to work in bus lanes and keeping the peace at Jedwards concerts.

    You should blame the parents.They are the ones who bring the kids up like that,and for some can be from peer pressure transcending onto them.

    As they walked on to O'Connell street , a group of about 5 sweaty pale faced tracksuit wearing junkie scum crawled out of a side street and started shouting abuse at them. 4 men in their late twenties and 1 fat beast of a heroin pin cushion.

    I agree we need a solution to the scum problem. A final solution, if you will.

    That solution is reformist drivel.

    I don’t know if it's feasible to suggest that we initiate a “final solution” against the entirety of the filthy and scaly demographic. I do think, however, that it would be a good idea if the laws surrounding the killing and injuring of such people were to be sufficiently relaxed for the protagonist in the following little story to go unpunished.

    One day I was on the DART. I had my iPod turned up to maximum volume in a vain attempt to blank out the skirls and snarls of the scaly scum in the adjacent set of seats. They were shuddering, and stumbling, both over each other and their words. Their drooping folds of mottled, malodorous skin and yellowed, crooked teeth were so disgusting that I allowed myself only an occasional glance in their direction and only for the purpose of ensuring that they were not about to hurl an AIDS ridden syringe in my direction.

    A few stops later we arrived at Sydney Parade station, and a couple of stand up gentle men wearing Leinster rugby jerseys, chinos, Dubarry shoes and with blonde highlights in their hair entered the carriage. They shot a few contemptuous glances at the scaly individuals to my right, and decided to stand rather than sit near them. They were in the middle of a conversation when all of sudden the scaliests, pink skinned, bloodshot, tattoo emblazoned members of the scaly group, wearing a Celtic jersey so tight that every shivering contour of his bloated torso was accentuated for all to see, got up.

    He scuttled up towards the tallest member of the Leinster jersey wearing folks and tapped one of them on the shoulder. He looked around with utter contempt in his eyes.“What the fu%k do you want, Pal?” He said, pushing the scaly scummer away and spitting in his face. The scaly scum bucket recoiled a few seconds later, his reactions most likely dulled by a combination of hard cider and heroin.
    “S-ss-s-sorry bud.....I was just...askin if you have a li?” His words rolled around his mouth like slime, and poured from his lips like raw sewage from a broken sewer. The Leinster jersey wearing fellow, laughed to his friends and slapped the scummer in the face, removing a couple of scales in the process.
    "You, loike, totally just made the biggest mistake of your life, Pal!” He snorted, as he pulled a screwdriver from the pocket of his chinos. He grabbed the scaly fellow by the shoulder and stabbed him in the face about forty times. Scales, blood and heroin flew everywhere. The scummer eventually fell to the floor, dead.

    "That’s what you get for messing with me” Said the Leinster jersey wearing chap, as he turned to be high fived by his friends, before turning back to kick the scaly corpse at his feet a few times. The DART stopped and the scalies ran scared.

    "Yeah, you better run” Said another of the Leinster party, with a plump belly and a pair of aviators, shaking his chubby fist in their direction.
    To my horror he was picked up by the police at the next station, and I later found out he got ten hours community service, an injustice the like of which I have never seen....

    Can't wait for the 2nd chapter, riveting stuff!

    So how would the Irish Times cover this issue?

    I wouldn't know as I don't read the IT. Is that the best you can come up with?
