Shocking video of guards in Dublin today

dharma200

uch

Boom yeah

comongethappy

Pretty poor form alright.

Twink is getting about isn't she.

Id say the protest outside the Russian embassy was a bloodbath.

Are there any of these videos that don't start just as a Gard is dragging someone off? Its almost like they don't want you too see the peaceful protester before the evil Gards pounce on him for just standing there being all peaceful at a nice distance.

ugh that turns my stomach. Why do the guards all have to crowd around him as well

Pro-tip: don't lie down in the middle of the road when the police tell you to move away. Also, if you're an epileptic who is prone to having fits you shouldn't be putting yourself at risk like that.

I also love that the video opens with a title describing it as "brutality". I can make my own mind up, thanks. Love the protesters shouting and roaring at the gardai trying to do their jobs as well.

Rent a crowd knobends.

Unless that guy was waving about a weapon or acting in a way which was going to cause immediate physical harm to anyone or a guard I can't see how dragging him along the ground by the head can be in any way proper order... I know these protest groups are contentious, but even the way they are around him afterwards, big guilty hands all around him.. That's. Not on I don't think for any force to behave like that unless the guy was endangering life like...
Scary ****

You don't understand crowd control but don't let that get in the way of your rant.

They clearly weren't trying to drag him along the ground. It's fairly obvious they tried to pick him up and carry him, but he was throwing himself around the place and trying to kick out.

Most cops overseas have tear gas, pepper spray and tazers. People have a right to protest but most police forces around the world have the right not to give to fcuks about your right to protest.

Ah ok I must have missed that bit

**** I didn't realise there was a Saturday night guard brutality thread lol.. Feel free to merge with all the others mods .. Maybe we should request a board all on its own for the mega thread!

Royal Legend

This is Ireland, if they want to protest then they should go the Gaza or to Israel, then they would witness brutality and I doubt if they would be so mouthy with the local police or militia there either.

Clarify peaceful?

Guards are nerds .The difference is they now have power unlike in their school days.
It's sad to see them all behave like robotic nerds. It's kinda revenge I guess.

They are guards, not doctors.

And he was putting a life at risk - his own, by lying down in the middle of a road for fcuk sake!

The first time I watched it, I thought the Gards were really out of order, but watching it again, I think he'd already started to fit, and thats why he ended up with his head on the floor, they were carrying him, and the the thrashing caused them to drop him. They should have stopped though, and not dragged his head along the ground.

How did the woman know he was about to have a fit? She was saying "he's going to have a fit now".

Also, what were they doing while he was having the fit, was that man trying to put something in his mouth? I thought now that you just clear everything around the person, put something under their head to stop them hurting themselves, and observe. Putting something in the mouth isn't recommended anymore.

BorneTobyWilde

Cost nothing to be polite. To go up to guy and ask him to go to other side of road. But they don't seem capable of doing that.
They simply walk up and say

GET TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD. AAHHHH
!!!! THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD.AAAAHHHH!!!!! ROAD SIDE, OTHER SIDE AHHHHHH!!!!

You don't have to be a doctor to have a bit of common sense, why didn't they get a jacket or something to put under his head straight away. One guard did cop on to this eventually but it took a while.

vicwatson

In this case there was enough Gardai to lift the chaps head off the ground. Not a wheelie bin he's pulling ffs

Ideo

Jaysus, yer one that posted the vid is a proper rent a crowd protestor. Anti zionists, anti child abuse, no to frackong, anonymous.. It's always the same with the protestors, they'll protest against anything

dharma200

Right, by the look of those guts a gew of the guards are putting their own lives at risk every day by scoffin the brekkie rolls. Would t wanna see them pursuing on foot like........
It can't be easy the public order thing, and the law is always on the side of the guards I reckon, but still, whatever, it's really bad form.

serves him right if he is not

The Garda have a job to do and they have to react that way to people who resist. they have to be aggressive and they have to protect and defend themselves as well

If you know epilepsy sometimes the person shows signs before they fit The guy looked liked he was administrating meds


We didn't see what happened before this and the protesters are probably delighted to be able to use this video for their "cause" wonder did this protester give his permission to have himself put up on the internet like this

Some people with epilepsy are prescribed a medicine that a relative or friend can administer in emergencies to stop a prolonged seizure. In most people with epilepsy, seizures do not last more than a few minutes. However, in some cases a seizure lasts longer and a medicine can be used to stop it. A doctor or nurse should give instruction on how and when to administer the medicine.

You're actually not supposed to do that anymore AFAIK.

Big shots then they realise that it is not good to drag a person's face along the ground. They looked like a bunch of amateurs as well as being overweight for a police force

I think he might be still in hospital

Filming someone having a seizure and posting it on line for anyone to watch is poor form.

Awkward Badger

The Gardai shouldn't have dragged him off like that, there were plenty there to move him without dragging him. However its a bit of a non issue as far as "brutality" goes as its a situation the clown and his friends made for themselves.

Don't mill around in the middle of the road and then act the clown when the Gardai arrive and you won't be getting dragged anywhere.

nullzero

That footage doesn't show anything approaching brutality of any kind. If you had ever witnessed true brutality you would know this. It's unfortunate that the young man had a seizure but as has already been stated by others he needs to take his condition into consideration before engaging in such activities.

I hate the pigs as much as the next person, but it can be hard to know that someone would have an 'eppo'.

Having said that, they were very, very careless in the way they dragged him with his head in contact with the ground.

dharma200

Ok if anything this thread might actually educate whatever guards are lurking on the correct treatment for so done having an epiletic fit.... Small steps forward......
