The Ongoing Issue of Feral Youths Running Amok in Dublin

SoSolidFool

I decided to make a separate thread to the gangland shootings one as technically this isn't really relevant to that thread.

Over the course of the last year the youth of Coolock, Finglas, Cabra, Balbriggan, Donaghmeade, Clarehall, Ballyfermot, Ballymun, Driminagh have gotten well out of control.

We've had 3 days of assaults around North Dublin carried by a roving gang of 30 teenagers armed with knives and hammers. They have attacked innocent civilians, retired Gardai and have hospitalised a number of people and are not letting up.

In Finglas we have the Gucci gang made up of some extremely violent young teens led by some 'older' heads in their 20s. They regularly are involved in violent acts and have easy access to guns. They basically run parts of Finglas

Around Driminagh there has been a gang of teens terrorising people around the canal and luas stop. They have carried out a number of racially motivated attacks, are regularly attacking cyclists and have been responsible for many robberies.

If you don't have tiktok you should download it and look at a general search videos. It is incredible the amount of videos of these teenagers abusing Gardai, joyriding, attacking people, setting things alight etc. Obviously these are things that have always happened but the level of videos has definitely increased as has the out and out disrespect these people hold for the gardai.

Now we have an incoming crack epidemic that is going to engulf the cities. The quality of cocaine has increased immeasurably in Dublin since a decade ago and this has made these teens become more violent, psychotic and paranoid.

The guards are soft. Witness the videos of Clayton being released from the garda station because of the pressure put on the garda by his mother. The kid and the mother even had the audacity to attack the gardai after they released Clayton showing what little respect they have for the Gardai.

Take a drive around Darandale, witness scramblers joyriding around on the roads, open dealing on the green, people smoking crack in full view of the public. Watch the gardai being abused without a peep from the serving members. You rarely see garda on foot in these areas because they're terrified to leave their car.

We now have a group of 20 teens primarily around Darandale that are going to become possibly the most violent gang we've ever seen in a few years. Once they turn on Mr.Big (and they will) we are going to see even more violence.

The government needs to get serious and do a Brazilian style 'Pacificado' (when the Brazilian police cleared out Rio before the world cup and Olympics) in these bad estates. Send in the Gardai supported by the ERU, Public Order Unit and have the army ready to restore order if things get out of hand. Send a message. The government should be doing simultaneous raids on all known drug houses, and doing a sweep on the greens of all these estates at once, search every single feral kid and if anyone gets lippy give them a hit of the baton.

The Gardai need to remind these animals that this **** won't be tolerated, before its too late.

I remember well during the 90's how dealers were vilified and forced out, this was one strand of the community action against them,

The 90s are a cakewalk to today. There has been 4 different shootings in the space of 5 days in Dublin alone.

And this epidemic is going to be much worse than heroin. Crack cocaine makes it users are extremely violent, the hits last 10-20 minutes and its immeasurably more expensive than heroin. It causes paranoia and psychosis whereas good heroin would turn them into stumbling zombies.

In the 90s the Guards weren't afraid to walk in any estates but that is not the case today. They won't get out of their cars in certain estates and with good reason. Guards are attacked all the time these days. Sure we've just seen a video of a 17 year old and his mother attacking guards in their own station. The guards even let the kid go! Honestly the guards have gone soft. They are intimidated, out of shape and actively compromised (its becoming increasingly common to see news about guards working with gangs)

Why is crack about to become popular? It's been around years and never caught on in Ireland.

The quality of cocaine has immeasurably improved making crack easier to produce and of a higher quality.

In addition heroin use is way down. Dealers are looking for a new drug to get their customers hooked on as teens these days are more averse to trying heroin.

yes, this country has big issues with teenagers. It's a combination of retarded laws on self-defence + some abnormal uber-protection of teens, making them untouchable. Once seeing 10 year old monkeys jumping at the windows and spitting at people inside Luas full of people in the middle of the day, made me realize that this tolerant and democratic public is ready to swallow pretty much everything.

But nothing has changed in the last 20 years, so keep enjoying your democracy.

I wont say things are not bad today, but your idea that things were not bad in the 90’s in Dublin (Tallaght) is very wide of the mark. Why do you think an Australian news agency travelled to Dublin to make the documentary?

I seen myself how in the 90’s the Garda were also afraid to enter tallaght at night, i personally seen they used to hang on the outskirts of estates in the car and always leaving themselves a way to escape if it got serious, the bus service I cant say how many time refused to go up into estates in Tallaght after dark, they stopped at the Square and went back into town.

And if you think crack is only new you are quite naive, I seen crack smokers and addicts years ago all around Dublin, Tallaght, Clondalkin, Ballyfermot.

Anyway, this is digressing, community activism is what defeated it in the past, its what will defeat it today, possibly only with a heavy hand.

s8n

Can you suggest how community activism is going to defeat it ??

Surely with the introduction of guns and money its more difficult to defeat without the ARU and Gardai tackling head on ??

Common sense approach and community policing clearly hasnt worked. Time to put the carrot away & use the stick

The legislation around "children first" has resulted in children being untouchable. I was reported under child protection for saying an errant teen needed "a kick in the hole". Needless to say, it didnt get far.



However, that is what you are up against. I saw a garda kick a skanger in the ribs on answering an emergency call when they realised who it was. I had a punch up with him, he was wild, and when the garda arrived, I was sitting on him. Did I say that? whoops, maybe I imagined it, dont quote me, dont want to be ordered to make a statement.


All the do gooders pushing to protect the poor youth of today are exasperating the problem.

I don't think crack is new It think its becoming much more prevalent as the coke has gotten so much stronger. Even during the boom of the Celtic Tiger the coke quality was poor. These days coke is far more potent.

I've a better idea.

The state should subtract the legal aid from their welfare payments. You could subtract it over the course of months if it is a particularly high cost.

Honestly these scum don't care about getting convictions or going to court but they'll care if it means their free income is reduced.

I baulk at the use of language like feral. These are humans, after all, who will go home and help their parents with the dishes, play football with their younger siblings, and so on. Though I don't think it ever an excuse, there is no doubt that working class gang violence is a function of deprivation. The long term solution, as it was for the 90s drug problem and associated violence, is economic progress. Draconian responses are not likely to be effective. I also am resistant to making bold assertions, like ascribing the problem principally to drugs.

But I am concerned that it seems to be going ignored by the establishment. One thing that I cannot understand is that, with the exception of fringe news outlets like Dublin Live, the media is not covering it. Or, if they do, it'll be a short article light on detail that is never followed up. Given that the most trivial of happenings in this country are reported on, I hope I'm not being hysterical in suggesting that only a decision within media organisations not to magnify these incidents can explain why thirty teenagers chasing another across town with weapons, involving an off-duty guard, did not get front-page coverage.

An increasing prejudice of mine that I am uncomfortable about is, having seen that a few of the incidents involved exclusively black youths, to wonder whether every other I hear about involves the same group. I would quite like to be proved wrong and look online for pictures or videos of the latest incidents, but never find anything. Here, then, is an example of where a refusal to cover the incidents is actually leading to the prejudice (albeit mild and somewhat sympathetic, in my case) that they are presumably trying to avoid. If RTE and the Irish Times won't cover it, I am forced to seek out Dublin Live and other questionable outlets for my news.

Economic progress? We are one of the wealthiest countries in the world, there was an abundance of jobs, open university for all. They have the best welfare payments in the world. You can stop making excuses for them. They have more opportunity than 99% of the world population.

And it is ****ing ridiculous that you are trying to make this a race matter. Guess what all of those 30 kids running around are WHITE. They are scum from Darandale. There was a black gang from Balbriggan but no, 99% of these incidents are white scumbags. In fact that big gang in Driminagh that have made parts of the canal a no go area are actually targeting black people in their attacks

Find another thread to vent your racist **** in, If it was only black kids doing this then Dublin would have nearly 0% crime :rolleyes:

I suspected it from your OP, but you're quite obviously a crank.

I stated with such clarity that only an idiot could misunderstand that a consequence of the media's failure to report it is that I am left wondering whether all incidents I hear about resemble the small number for which I've seen videos - quite natural, I think. I expressed regret about that fact and a desire to be shown to be wrong.

The only crank is you. You are transparent and we see all the time the tactics of racist cowards trying to make it out like you are against racism but then going ahead to make a racist statement to colour people's judgements.

You are trying to create narrative that there are tons of black kids running around causing trouble because if someone like you who is 'vehemently against racism' has noticed it then it might be true. You then cover it up further by saying you 'hope' that the media is misreporting.

Some odd notions about crack getting bandied about here.

Crack by it's definition is far from pure, it's whole selling point is that it can be manufactured cheaply with baking soda and as it's smoked instead of snorted it's absorbed much more quickly delivering a short, fast hit.

The fact you are by definition mixing down the cocaine with baking soda means you can sell it cheaper thus bringing in a lot of poor punters who can't afford to fund a Gerry Ryan habit.

It hasn't taken off in Ireland in 30 years and it's highly unlikely it will now.

It's quite telling that you're able to fabricate a detailed narrative about me without having almost any information which to go on. In fact, I think your characterisation of me is contradicted by most of what little information you do have. It explains much about your OP.

I think you are mistaken about it not taking off currently. There are almost daily crack seizures and if you go into these estates you will see that there is crack absolutely everywhere whereas before it wasn't as prevalent. I've been hearing that its easier to get crack than weed these days.

Mixing down a better quality of cocaine for cheaper, producing more affordable crack that is stronger and more highly addictive than the crack of years gone by.

If they and their parents were forced to work to feed themselves, lots of these issues would go away.

The welfare state is to blame. The last taboo in Ireland is to question the welfare state and the accommodation of single mothers to the point where they don't have to work. The infuriating thing is the recent elections are basically a cry for more government welfare, not less. No-one in this country seems to value work anymore as the main route out of these problems.

The other major factor is that political correctness, alongside the widespread use of camera phones by the welfare class, means Guards are paralyzed and cannot do real police work. This is why you see them stopping middle class people trying to play a game of golf....sure that's a lot safer and easier than doing real police work!

I think that while we will always have to provide welfare for obvious reasons it should be reduced and after a period of one year without work reduced further. I think legal aid should be subtracted from welfare payments.

I mean they have free houses, free schools, more or less free healthcare so its ridiculous that we are paying them so much and on top of that giving them free legal aid when they go onto commit crimes. Everyone deserves legal representation so why doesn't the state subtract that representation from their welfare payments over the course of months?

All of these kids running around in welfare areas have top of the range clothes, phones. They can go out clubbing on the weekends and holiday abroad up to three times a year. The amount of high spec cars in our deprived areas is crazy.

I wouldn't even mind if they just kept to themselves but instead they go around abusing our gardai telling them they pay their wages (LOL), they go into ACTUAL hardworking areas like Portmarnock where people actually worked hard to get a house there and threaten and attack the residents. They shout and piss and fight all over town making the boardwalk an eye sore and intimidating tourists.

I am just at the end of my tether with this ****. While us working people are paying 2,000 for a one bed near our work these ****ing vermin are living rent free in prime city centre locations without having the need to even go to work. Why the **** aren't they tossed out to the commuter areas if they want a free house?

They just breed and breed generations of state spongers who are progressively getting more entitled and worse. What do they do to the actual working people? Attack, rob, intimidate, sue.

I think the people of Ireland are fed up with the soft glove approach. They have it too good.

SF coming into power will be a disaster.

The Gardai will be even more hamstrung. People think rents will come down with SF? Good luck, prime living developments will be going to social housing and its a fantasy to think they'll cap rental prices which is just not legally possible.

SF is a disaster for anyone working. Taxes will go up and even more of your hard earned money will be going to a welfare system that is already one of the most generous in the world.

The little darlings of Coolock will be protected from the Gardai with SF in power and the voice of the (non)working-class.

Anyone who actually works and pays rent should not be supporting Sinn Fein.

My experience is that the Gardai have lost the trust of many of the good people in these areas. This through a combination of failing to tackle the scumbags, while hassling and treating badly those who are not part of the problem. These people now feel abandoned and also don't trust the Gardai. This makes any belated attempts at community policing futile, and leaves the organisation now facing a much more difficult task than if they had worked properly with these communities over the years.

At the same time, I have found that community groups that traditionally tackle the root causes of youth disengagement and antisocial behaviour, have been increasingly infiltrated by criminal elements in some areas. I would fear just as much for young relatives involved in the local football club and youth club in terms of bad influence and grooming, as I would if they just hung around the park or shops.

You are giving the parents too much credit in saying that they cook. These families live off takeaways and microwavable dinners.

Tesco's realised that these morons are so goddamn lazy that if they set up tesco expresses all over these areas with higher prices they would still boom because the welfare recipients are too lazy to go the extra distance to larger, more affordable supermarkets.

Speaking of which, the amount of delivery drivers being attacked is a joke. Some poor immigrant working his ass off to raise a family being viciously assaulted by feral gangs is becoming all too common.

It's a lose lose. If they do a soft glove approach then they are not tackling the scumbags but if they become heavy handed then they are being hassling and needlessly aggressive.

I mean that scumbag Clayton allegedly got a smack at 17 years old for going up to a garda car and calling them bitches. This is a kid with a litany of convictions and all round scumbag. For me that is exactly what is needed. There are **** all countries in the world where you can talk to the police like that. It wouldn't be tolerated in Spain, Italy, France, Portugal, Germany in areas where the police are required to be tough, it wouldn't be tolerated even in normal areas in Spain, Italy, France and Portugal.

Honestly the scum should be terrified of the police force. They should be thinking twice of going into areas like Portmarnock to terrorise innocent people because of the consequences. They should know that abusing a member of our police force will result in a slap.

I genuinely think they would tread a lot more carefully if they knew they were going to get a beating when the guards caught up with them. Those 30 kids who punched a number of innocent civilians in Portmarnock, terrorised a pensioner couple and even attacked a former Garda should be rounded up and shown that their actions have consequences.

They can take lumps out of each other all they want but the minute they start ****ing around with actual hard working innocent bystanders they should get their just desserts.

If they don't want to punish the kids then take it on parents. It is the parents fault in all these situations

Kid doesn't go to school: Stop children allowance

There will always be crime. There has to be an attitude to tackle it too.
As I said it comes from the top. The softly softly approach politicians don't have that attitude. It filters down.

Yeah its definitely always been the case that body parts would get thrown around Dublin estates and in the space of 5 days there would be 5 shootings.

Things are getting worse, guns are more readily available and the 'urban youth' are definitely more aggressive. I've grown up around it and definitely not a hysteric wet the bed. It's something I've gradually witnessed and it has really amplified in the last year for whatever reason.

I don't think it is a lose lose if they do things properly. I personally experienced years of Garda harassment because of where I grew up. I have never committed a crime, never gave a Garda cheek. I'm a law abiding, productive member of society. I don't trust the Gardai and I feel let down by them as an organisation. The fact that someone like me feels like that based on experience means they have failed.

Dublin is full of scummy knackers. If you can't see that then you must be one of them.

Do you wear adult diapers every time you go out in case you **** yourself when you see a kid in a tracksuit? Sad ****. If you got a few slaps for yourself you certainly deserved them with your scummy attitude

There will always be crime. There has to be an attitude to tackle it too.
As I said it comes from the top. The softly softly approach politicians don't have that attitude. It filters down.

Op reckons there are gangs of up to 30 headbangers going around with hammers. I suppose something should probably be done about that

Where's the right wing low crime havens then?

Nobody in the country is held responsible for their behaviour.
This is nationwide, spans all ages and many facets of life.

The gardai are disillusioned because the govt/judiciary are soft. Every conviction someone has is a successful garda prosecution but where is the punishment/disincentive? Not the guards fault there.

It's not the Gardaí that are soft but our bleeding heart society.

How could it be any other way?

Here's some solutions.

(1) Child allowance payments are limited to 2 per family.

(2) Legal Aid is subtracted from future welfare payments

(3) Single mother allowance is scrapped (they already have child allowance)

(4) In cases where a child under 18 has been found guilty of a violent crime it will be mandatory for the victim of that crime to be compensated by the parents of that child

(5) After one year of unemployment there is a reduction in your welfare.

(6) Social housing given to the actually homeless not a scrote who decides he wants to move out of his parents house and have his own house down the road (if they want that then they can get a job like the rest of us)

(7) If you are convicted of a criminal offence there will be a 10% reduction in your social welfare payments for a period of 5 years

(8) Those able bodied and on welfare payments are put to work at least once a week doing social works such as cleaning up parks, assisting in works on public schools, delivering food to the homeless etc.

(9) Social welfare cut completely where CAB have determined that household income is supplemented by illegal activities such as drug dealing. In order to have welfare payments restarted the local Gardai and CAB must be confident that all illegal activities have stopped.

(10) Child allowance stopped for a period of a year when the child is convicted of a serious offence.

(11) Single mother allowance (if not scrapped completely) is discontinued where it is shown that the recipient has been living with a long term partner
