Gardai should be more intimating

Stephen15

Hi what do you think I think the guards uniform should be all black like the luas security Garda themselves should be beefed up skinheads. They need a better riot squad with water cannon and tear gas would the Spanish police would have the water meter protests cleared and gone in 5 minutes don't see why it can't be the same in Ireland. They should be armed aswell I may sound a bit brutal but face would there be any trouble making junkies and teenager if they got the end of a truncheon I doubt it.

So you want peaceful protesters blasted with a water cannon?

Did you really just use the words "Garda" and "Skinheads" in the same sentence...?





(Although the Grammar Nazi inside me, if you'll pardon the phrase, is screaming at the singular use of "Garda" followed by plural of "skinheads"...)

If there wasn't soo many of them overweight,..(should be yearly fitness tests IMO)

/they did their job properly (enforce existing laws)...there would be no need for the changes you wish to see

Joe prim

They should act totally without punctuation

I think some of the ban-gardai should be more intimate.

whatismyname

Why, yes, Gardai should be more intimating....

Don't like the idea of guards getting intimate where there's batons involved tbh

'Gardai should be more intimating'

'got the end of a truncheon'

Jesus OP, we know what's on your mind.

Prison officers for our worst offenders should be recruited from foreign army or security backgrounds so they and their families can safely live as well as ensure that these prisons are secure places with real punishment.

Every so often I get a bit fed up with AH and then a thread like this comes along and I start to believe again..... Thread needs some explosions and maybe sharks and volcanoes and its perfect.

I salute you OP.

What are you intimating here? Bring back Lugs Brannigan?

We could recruit from the Lords Resistance Army or the NKVD.

His remains could be intimidating though, if you were handcuffed to him in the paddywagon.

Of course they should be more intimating, like if one intimated their decisions and actions when:
1. They were beating up Corrib protesters in return for a few cans from shell.
2. They leaked a story about Claire Daily drink driving and arrest her when she was below the limit.
3. Ignore every tribunal!!
4. Why they feel it is necessary to spy on protesters performing their democratic right which they are sworn to protect.
5. They bully whistle blowers.
6. They spied on Mick Wallace and the whole phone recording scandal.
7. They took off their badges and went around beating people up during May Day protests.

(I just looked him up.) I don't know Gardaí in my own town. Why would people know a Garda from somewhere else (and who died nearly 30 years ago).

I think we should have tigers as garda. Stitch them little tiger garda uniforms, and make them little peak garda caps with an elastic chin strap.

Protesters causing disruption? Release the tigers!

Junkies hanging around? Release the tigers!

Teenagers being teenagers? Release the tigers!

Tiger escaped from Dublin zoo? Release the tigers!

You should probably read up on what Garda Síochána means.

What if these tigers are kidnapped? I heard tiger kidnappings are a thing.

Witnessed two Guards lose their cool a few weeks ago. Excessive force, the works. Split a blokes head right open. One of them just totally lost the plot and when another guy standing by seeing it all unfold tried to intervene, the Guard started squaring up shoving him and threatening to box the head of him (he was a little fart of a Guard and would have got hopped around).

There has been a few incidents where I live and to be honest the Guards could do with being a little more street wise and knowing how to defuse situations. Seen way too many incidents in the last while where they seem to spark the situation of into a massively negative and violent situation.

Fifteen years in my area and there is way too many power tripping, hotheaded Guards from the country not dealing with situations well at all. It's no co incidence that the best ones dealing with situations in my experience are the much older Guards, normally Sergeants, that just know how to speak to people and sort things out properly. something is being drastically lost in training Guards. It's become ridiculously noticable in the last few years

Yeah. You're right. Fcuk it, when they're finished with the protests, may as well head around and blast a queue of people signing on, eh?
