The root of most of our crime:

    The amount of crime in Ireland has steadily increased over the past years and has never shown a decline. Both hard core prison sentences and ruling with an iron fist along with pansy rehabilitation crap never seem to have worked in Ireland. These criminals fear no justice. Where do you think the majority of our crime comes from? if you look at the likes of the Netherlands or Spain most of the crime comes from tourists being pick pocketed, usually by Moroccans (if this is racist, against the rules etc, you can snip that part mods).

    But, in Ireland the level of remorseless crime has soared and shows no sign of declining. I'd say if the IRA were eliminated and heroin and cocaine (and other hard drugs) were completely eliminate from Ireland, we would see only 5% of the crime rates we see now. (only an estimation, no stats to back up that claim)

    What do you think?

    There'll always be petty crime in society. I suppose since the drug trade took off in the 70s crime has become more organised in Ireland. Anybody can be drawn into crime regardless of their socio economic background, it's the lure of money the easy route a short cut to success. Even if you removed drugs from the equation they still have means of making money, Racketeering etc.

    Sponsoring I'd say.

    Have you anything to back any of this up with? Any figures? Reports? Statistics? Anything at all?

    Craig Doyle should be eliminated first! His career is the real crime!

    At a guess I'd say its the criminals that are the root cause of crime, those who aren't criminals don't seem to be involved in crime but I could be wrong.

    Crime rises during economic downturn shocker.

    No particular reason, I just blame him for everything, seems to be the done thing.

    Instead of completely eliminating them how about we legalise them and get
    the tax instead of the criminals, just because something is legal doesn't
    mean everybody will partake in it.

    The GRA figures released last week (not without controversy, albeit) show that Gardaí here are actually quite good at policing serious crime.

    If you want to refer to it in broad strokes, as you have with other countries, then our most blatant problem is dealing with drugs as a whole. There's no fear of recourse from those involved because the law isn't strict enough and Gardaí aren't given the resources to even begin to tackle the day-to-day minefield adequately. So scummy thugs are allowed to deal freely in relative peace, which then gives rise to crime in other areas. Go to the courts for a day if you want to see why this is allowed to happen: you'll hear a plethora of sob stories from people who've made bad decisions in their lives and can't account for them (and why would they? The law would punish them for doing so and reward them for talking about how hard they have it). It's as simple as that, really.

    Hasn't crime decreased since the downturn?

    And crime definitely increased during the Celtic Tiger. There's way more crime nowadays than decades ago.

    Moroccans in the IRA ?

    What ?


    I feel a bit stupider after reading this.
    Vote BNP !!

    For the 19th time, just do away with a cash society, and 90% of crime and drug problems will disappear, its not rocket science.

    If you do away with the IRA,where will I source my beloved horsey burgers?

    Depends on the type of crime. Burglary and that sort tend to increase in times of economic depression (http://www.cso.ie/en/statistics/crimeandjustice/) but crimes associated with partying and excess tend to act in the reverse.

    They also said that murders went up like ... 10000% ... since the Sky Sports package was removed from Gardaí stations.
