Good to see the Irish people finally protesting.

Brian Lenihan needs his bum spanked.

Nothing to do with this issue. He just needs a spanking.

Now picture Joan Burton, administering the spanking, decked out head to toe in a tight black leather dominatrix body suit, whipping Lenihan's naked wobbly arse until it turns red raw - and the mental image is complete.

So glad I watched a movie last night called 'The Killer inside me'

Just for those who dont 'get' what the government just did.. They lied openly to us. They basically scammed a debt auction and obtained an advantageous position through 'shrill bidding', disgraceful.

I saw that film. It was the only time in my life that I ever wished I was closely related to Ben Affleck.

If you need laws to guide you morally then you're ****ed tbh.

If those of us voted in to lead only have to stay within the law in order to be right, you're ****ed tbh.

So you're saying we should become vigilantes and ignore the laws then?

What planet you on bud?

A 50yr old shagging your 17yr old daughter in his car with coats covering the windows is within the law too.

You don't become a vigilante for trying to correct something you see a wrong.

And if the 50yr old and my 17yr old daughter are consenting then what's the problem?

You asked should people be punished. But if they haven't broken the law, what are they being punished for? For being morally bankrupt? What punishment fits that, then? Prison? Violence? Death? What exactly do you think should happen?

Yes, anyone who doesn't cry out for blood must be a troll.

Anyway, back to my question. What do you want done with these people?

Na, anyone who makes stuff up, plucking it out of the air in order to cause argument is a troll. Lots of stuff online that defines a troll quite nicely.

Your question? First time you have asked what I want done with these people? Damn trolls plucking things out of thick air.

Seriously, what's you're problem? Is it that you have no reply, so you have to try and insult me? If I think two consenting adults should be allowed to have sex, I'm a troll?

So, stop taking your own thread off-topic. What's you're opinion on your own topic then? What should be done with them? How do we deal with the situation? Call people trolls?

1. Show me where I 'cried out for blood'.
2. Do you really think it's fine for a 50yr old to shag your 17yr old daughter in a car with the windows covered in coats?

Answer those 2 in a way I believe you and I'll retract the 'troll' label from you.

also note, it is not possible to go off topic on AH, thats the point.
& I have already answered you question.
:P

I never said you cried out for blood. You accuse me of being a troll because I dared ask waht punishment you think should be metted out, a question you've yet to answer. I'm not trying to get at you, I'm curious as to what you think should be done. Shoud people be punished for doing something that is morally wrong? What punishment is fit, and who decides what's morally wrong?

And again, if two consenting adults want to have sex, I'm not in a position to stop them. I don't have to like it. Now, what the f*ck does this have to do with crooked politians?

^ Troll in trolling fail. Sorry if I am wrong ( & I genuinely mean that) but I've been around long enough to know a troll.

1. I have answered the question, please read the thread.
2. Can't be bothered anymore. Please have the last word, on me.

So you're basically just a troll, trolling your own thread? Beggars belief, it really does.

The sad thing is that there's no readily available proof to say that it was fraud, and those who would actually have proof hidden away keep it quiet as it would incriminate themselves. It's possible that someday someone will gain a conscience and rat out their friends, but it seems unlikely.
