Is the Abbey Street/O'Connell Street junction getting worse?

    My bus was delayed last night so I was there outside the Londis bus stop opposite Easons for about an hour yesterday evening.

    In that time I witnessed

    *A young woman at the bus stop being tripped up by a junkie as she walked away because she had no smokes to give him.

    *A drug addict father hitting his young baby child in the face with a rolled up newspaper as the child wouldnt stop crying, and the mother backing him up

    *2 random fist fights and a handbag snatch


    I've been getting the bus here for about 6 weeks now and it just seems to be getting worse.

    Cops don't give a toss, there's very little foot patrol nearby.

    I grew up in a really rough area and would have been familiar with all of this and was never really phased by it, but recently even I'm scarred sh*tless, constantly checking behind me at the bus stop.

    The street is madness

    I have no idea where you're from OP so can't recognise where to send you to.
