No it's a crime to drive on a footpath occupied with innocent pedestrians, knock one over, and continue to drive with an other on the bonnet, then leave the scene.

Unacceptable, disgusting, thuggish, behaviour,

You must be physically incapacitated then not to be able to walk a couple of stops around the protestors and continue on your journey

Only conclusion I can think of tbh

No, I watched my pregnant friend get a taxi because she couldn't use the Luas from the IFSC. But hey that's all fine right?

I could have told her to walk and watch the protesters do their democratic journey but I think I just called them ****ing cnuts tbh.

I left D'Olier street, walked to Tara street station and got dart home, many thousands were not so fortunate. Lowlifes blocked the roads and should have been dragged away and if they resisted then yes they should have been locked up. Says more about you than me that you are willing to let a few lowlifes hold a city to ransom at rush hour.

a state owned mess can be changed at a push.

a privately owned mess will just keep getting sold on to the next highest bidder, while keeping the people behind the process nice and snug and warm.

true, hence why any charges for using the infrastructure would be to high for private companies to bother, but we'd have any supposed "competition" nonsense covered but with no interest, the EU could do **** all about it

So he's not allowed to care about the delays for his fellow commuters? Classic Mé Féin attitude, and you out protesting for the future of water for everyone in Ireland

Easy to walk around the protesters but no good if protesters are stopping the actual buses from getting to the stops :rolleyes:

How many buses were stopped what exact routes were effected not every single bus in Dublin was stopped by the protestors yesterday surely, if they were then again no contingency plans drawn up no alternate routes planned

Jaysus Dublins a shambles as regards planning for a protest day if that actually happened, kinda like the leaves stopping the trains in the UK

:rolleyes:

Easier to next time drag them into a fleet of vans and lock them away for a night, if nothing else i reckon crime in the city would drop a hefty % while they are otherwise occupied.

would cost to much and mean to much trouble compared to letting it fizel out naturally

Who says they are innocent? For all you know they had attacked the driver and the driver was attempting to get away, The fact there is very little in the news about this says there is more to it than meets the eye regarding a short video.

No, I don't.

There is ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE FOR A MOTORIST TO MOUNT A PAVEMENT, KNOCK OVER PEDESTRIANS AND THEN LEAVE THE SCENE OF THE CRIME.

Surely, you can understand THAT.

Or does your understanding only extend to the guy you want to side with.

The Luas only went to Smithfield. Not as if you or those protesters cared about your fellow Irish man though,

they're is no reasonable excuse for this act of terrorism. the person responsible must be caught and locked up as they are a danger to society

Not in the least, find a nice open air pen for them to sit in and let them stew for a while as they are processed, couple of guards with pepper spray would easily keep the lowlifes in line.

he probably has about as much evidence as joeswanson did earlier in the thread when he claimed the cyclist jumped infront of the cops.

Yes tbh she got home made an alternative arrangement as ive been saying, whats wrong with that shed be more comfortable in a taxi then the luas im sure, just made my argument tbh

Shin

yipeeeee

Would have been quite ironic if the ambulance couldn't get to the protestor blocking the road in time to save their life.

Wonder if the protestors even thought they could be hindering an ambulance getting to someone quick if needed be.

That she had to spend more money to get home because of a bunch of twats?

Lucky she can afford it of course.

I thought your protest was about people not being able to pay "No way we won't pay" but you're happy for other people to pay more?

You mean in the video where the cyclist jumps in front of the cops in the van?

I love the way people are taking the moral high ground about the hit and run victim (quite rightly) but are mentioning nothing about the Garda who was injured while doing his job.

It's almost as if they were biased in some way. Kinda like how they portray the Guards to be Denis O'Briens personal security force.

Laugh of the day. The so called protesters attacking the car appear to have eirigi flags but its the person desperately trying to escape their violent attack thats a terrorist.

It was one day of protest no one not anyone anywhere on Dublin council could organise something to get people from the luas to home, Christ youd think Dublin was under siege or something they way people are going on

And you can play the sympathy card all you want doesn't wash with me, 5 minutes of planning would be all itd take to get around the protestors yesterday but people just seem to want to target it as something god awful that happened.

Such idiocy displayed on this thread by the pro side tis unbelieveable

It's genius.... How can you pay your water bill if all your wages are going on taxi's.

Well played Eirigi, Well played.

Again, I don't see the word "water" mentioned a single time in the article you quoted, and it is an article published by an Irish based newspaper based on an Irish survey funded by a "Galway based businessman".

And I dont see the word water mentioned in your post, you said "the charges".
Are you saying Red C are faking the poll? And they say the protestors have tinfoil hats!!! :pac:
