    No. But I do have confidence in the Guards. A poll would not change this.

    Yes I do.

    Underfunded, under resourced, under staffed and under appreciated.

    Not an easy job, fair play to the lot of them......except the one that made me pick up silly string that I sprayed from a can when I was 12.

    And if the gaurd was a thick Pole? Would you still have confidance in him/her? What if they were all thick Poles?

    Perhaps more appropriate, have you confidence in the justice system?

    In fairness, we weren't given much to go on.

    What's your opinion, OP?

    Overall, yes. Some individuals have demonstrated they leave a lot to be desired, but I believe most individuals are straight-up.

    Id tend to agree. My disillusionment is more with the legal framework in place then the Gardai who are heavily under-resourced and underpaid.

    Ireland has evolved into a state where some of most dangerous dirt alive have the freedom and power to run riot while the hands are tied of those who protect us.

    As for confidence in the Gardaí - That's a no.

    Not really. I've seen them do some foul things. Most are ok but there's a lot of bad apples.

    All jokes aside, do I have confidence in the Guards? Well... yes and no.

    If I were to ring 999 and ask for the Guards, would I be confident that they'd show up soon? From personal experience, yes.

    Would I be confident that on arrival they'd make the best decisions- no.

    You see from personal experience, I can say one thing for sure: a lot of them are c*nts. I'm talking about Police in general.

    With all the threads regarding Guards on boards, I've a serious question to ask: What drives people to become Guards?

    Do people want to become Guards to protect others or because they're power hungry and got nowhere else? I'm sure there are other reasons also, so hit me up!

    Absolutely! Moderately and socially, of course.

    What about gourds? Anybody lacking confidence in those? They've served our species well for thousands of years now as tools, musical instruments, and objects d'art, not to mention their usual role as tasty and nutritious foods?
