Dublin is a sh1thole...

...discuss!

I know this is a bit of a broad statement, but I just feel the city has deteriorated so much in the last decade. Whenever I go to another capital city I always feel more relaxed as there's more of a cosmopolitan feel to it, especially throughout Europe. I'm always on edge walking around some parts of Dublin city.

Some of my gripes are:
• Litter (I feel the city has got dirtier in recent years)
• Unkempt streets (pot holes, dilapidated buildings, run-down houses etc.)
• Crap transport system (we should have decent underground metro)
• Luas issues (Constantly hearing about scum bags running amok on the red line).
• Junkies (No need to say more on this as we're all aware of the issues with the Walking Dead around our tourist spots, open dealing, shooting up, etc.)
• Drunkenness (You just have to walk from Dame st to O'Connell st any Friday or Saturday to see the state of our youth, completely hammered and throwing up all over the place).

I would tell you to visit the Dublin forum but theres no point as this thread would probably be locked there too.
