The idiots behind sulky racing

blacklilly

Just read the below article in the independent. These people really are sub human, they lack intelligence, compassion, empathy and just basic common sense.

Sulky racing is bad enough without the added obstruction of cars/white vans "protecting the race".

I hope this woman and her unborn child are ok and for the the cretins involved in the race, well I can't really say what I'd like to see happen them.

I wonder will any arrests be made.......

Careful now.

The shocked motorists were left even more distressed when the procession of cars returned to the scene, recording the damage they had caused on mobile phones and jeering at the scene of the accident.

Boy (12) killed when thrown under truck in sulky car accident.

Sorry, but ballcocks to it being their or anyone's culture, they are dangerous and should not be on a public road.

It's not for you. It's for 'them'.

Everyone wants to say what they really think of these "people" but we all know we'd be banned if we told it like it was.

Nobody's seriously saying that. We just can't say much more.

Yup, it's their culture. Nothing we can do about it. You'd be sued for even trying to stop it. Ethnic minority don't ya know?

If you think a pregnant woman’s safety is more important than the rights of a community to be cruel to defenseless animals then you are a racist.
Welcome to modern Ireland .

I'd encourage anyone that is genuinely concerned to send off a mail to the relevant ministers in this area. Absolutely crazy that we have this kind of activity in 2018

Apparently they were jeering the accident afterwards. Arseholes

Selfish bast*rds. Scumbag behaviour.

NIMAN

I know if you or me raced a sulky up a main road we'd be arrested (and rightly so).

Yet for some it is allowed.

DrumSteve

They came back to jeer a pregnant lady in a car crash?

Lower than snake ****.

The people giving out about the people giving out about sulky racers have most likely never had to deal with these apes on a daily basis outside of photo opps or placard waving outside Lenister house.
If they like them so much, have them race up and down their roads outside their houses.

Sulky racing is deserving of attention from the state. But the real danger and damage was caused by the motor procession around it. Those guys were purposely running traffic off the road, with no concern for anybody else's safety. They should lose their licenses for good, and see the inside of a cell. Ethnic background has nothing to do with it.

I'll be interested to see whether or not there are court cases arising from this, and what the outcome is. But I won't be surprised if the state just shrugs its shoulders and says "what can we do?".

NIMAN

You know what will happen, the car that rear ended the pregnant ladies car will end up paying out for any and all damages.

the van drivers and their spawn will continue to cause havoc and laugh at the videos they took.

Somehow I don’t think taking their ”licences” off them will make much of a difference.

You know what's just as bad as traveller bashing? Brushing dangerous criminal behaviour under the carpet just because the perpetrators are travellers. There's a happy medium somewhere in the middle.

whisky_galore

Hardly surprising.

They push the boundaries time after time and get away with it.

Plenty of people are saying that: anyone who indulges in this activity should be arrested and trie for public endangerment as well as any other crimes committed along the way regardless of their background or cultural beliefs - what more needs to be said, exactly? Or are you hinting at the unfairness of not boards.ie not allowing you to be bigoted?

Wrong, the assistant commission has advised that we take the sensible approach of lodging a complaint with the individuals in question while we are in the local markets trying to identify our property

Do you have something more to add when you refer to these "people"? Why did you put people in quotation marks? Is there something ulterior in your post?

"Inquest jury recommends introduction of laws to regulate sulky use after Dublin incident "

Ehm, 'ban' is the word you're looking for, not 'regulate'.

As if disorganised racing on a public road not closed for the purposes of a race with stewards, etc. is a normal thing... that's before we even look at animal welfare.

To be fair to Gardai, there are no relevant laws to prosecute in this area.
Sulky racing is not illegal. Guards would have to go after some other action of those involved.

You know exactly what he means!! You are trying to come off as a do-gooder here... every single person on this thread knows what type of sub human these " people" are. Tool robbing, conning the elderly , no regard for law whatsoever but let's just brush that all under the carpet cause it's their culture. Give over

I live in an area of England with plenty of Irish Travellers, many with horses, recently they moved onto a site I manage and we had the usual mess to clean up after they left. I have never seen them use sulkys on the public roads though, don't know if laws are different or attitudes of police. There must be some laws the Guards can use.
