    Numerous times. Poor mother used to go bananas any time they knocked in to the house looking for me.

    I wouldn't class penalty points as being "a brush with the law". Driving discipline is nothing to do with criminality. Its an arbitrary thing, people make up the speed limits, they can change overnight.

    Been arrested a few times now for things like pissing in the street, buying drugs and possession of an offensive weapon. Was never charged with anything, though. I got a caution for one of them, that's it.


  • Posts: 5,121 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Yeah but the guard wasn't wearing his hat at the time so they dropped the case before it went to trial.

    Was in court twice for being too drunk. First time was justified but I honestly did nothing the second time.

    Are not all laws man made?

    They are! The point I'm making is that driving laws are arbitrary, whereas something like murder is wrong whether its legal or not.

    I was only ever 'arrested' once for making oinking noises at Gardai while drunk.. was put in the back of a squad car but they let me go after driving about for a while. They were actually dead on and saw the funny side of it all but said they had to be seen not to accept abuse. Didn't have to give them my details or anything.... sound!

    So you should be. Who will pay Pat Kenny his 1 million a year if were all to take your stance? Or Derek Mooney reported €300k or Joe Duffy who earns over half a million? ;)

    No, nothing.

    Although I was once questioned over an attempted kidnapping/bank robbery/ransom thing. That was interesting.

    Set up a meth lab and was cooking away in places like a camper van, a underground super lab and in houses been fumigated. Some idiot I used to cook with left my name in a book and now my brother in law who is in the DEA is coming after me as he saw the book.

    Don't know what to do :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,739 ✭✭✭✭minidazzler


    Nope, I've been caught doing some borderline illegal stuff, but never arrested.

    Borderline illegal being fighting (well, defending but winning, cops tried to blame me until some bystanders told them what happened) and climbing up a fountain while absolutely hammered....

    And now your having to yank yourself off around the clock because you can't get any proper sex with girls??


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,500 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND


    When I was younger the odd time, I'm too smart for the law now.:pac:

    I've only ever had minor offences, Public disorder (urinating in public), Theft (removing election posters) and speeding.

    Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.

    Driving laws are imposed to curtail the possibility of needless road death. Is manslaughter LESS wrong than murder?

    Straw man...

    End of days penalty points are not a criminal conviction ..


    You can leave the country with penalty points..








    Got arrested in wales before when I was 14 on a rugby tour.. took it upon myself to run up the bonnet of a squad car screaming " WOOO WOO WOOO WOO" got dragged down pretty sharpish..
