Racism on the buses..........

Does it hell. I live in Phibsboro, and work around Grafton Street - walking home in the evenings I go up Nth Frederick St. through the Basin etc. into Phibsboro, where there are many immigrant families living.

I have seen at least ten incidents on the street, mainly involving drunks, and a couple on buses also, including one full blown fight. Fortunately the bus driver used to be in the French Foreign Legion so he sorted it out

In all cases it was drunks or young hard men trying to impress their mates. I've have seen some of the perpetrators around on their own, walking past one or more immigrants and not saying $hit to them.

Same as lads out looking for scraps after a night on the pi$$ - they're very clever when there's a gang of them, but they won't say $hit by themselves.

Unfortunately it isn't an isolated incident.

Racism for a gang of Thugs is just another excuse for them to do what they like doing.

Does anybody feel that expressions of racism are common on the buses or anywhere else in the city. Or does yesterdays coviction ( http://www.ireland.com/newspaper/ireland/2000/0915/hom1.htm )
just represent an isolated incident?
