Youths Rioting -ERU deployed(mod warning in op)

questionmark?

Lots of trouble it appears over at the Oberstown youth detention centre.

Staff have been complaining for weeks about the facility. Deploying ERU seems pretty severe but not unreasonable as these youths respect nothing but violence. Although I'm sure a few lefties will say hugs and listening to them more would help.

Mod- Ok folks lets reign it in a bit please. No more advocating extreme violence(attack choppers,napalm, etc).

The place is in flames, god love anyone caught up in it

Was only redeveloped a few years ago

Should have sent the public order units and army riot squad in and brought the little animals under control

Didn't they start holding older guys there?

I have visited it for work over the years, it has certainly changed. That huge wall is an awful thing. AFAIK, there was only a need for that when the more 'serious' offenders were put there.

Fantastic, cue heading weeks of crap on the airwaves about how these youths should have more facilities and support, yawn.

Still youths but I think since St. Pats closed the more serious ones often end up there.

Think the oldest is 19,

Look like they will have to look at this softly softly approach ,
We need better control of institutions here

Sending the ERU in is retarded. What are they going to do, start shooting people? If it's a riot, then send in riot police to baton the bollix out of them.

You would think that alright but maybe they are concerned about outsiders with weapons joining in with the fire things aren't as secure. Or do the ERU double up as riot squad as well?

Maybe there job is to prevent a large number of scumbags escaping ,
Improvised weapons vs rifles .

A few low fly passes from a helicopter gunship would sort that crap out fairly shortish, and be rid of a generation of at least a small section of our scummy youth.

Let 'em burn.

Have any escaped or will we be only told this around lunchtime tomorrow?

Which one of them is the daddy now?

staff should be sacked here, irresponsible desertion of their duties

The wall doesn't keep the little fookers in most of the time! they should be shackled when brought there and thought to have respect for everything and every one!

The staff went on strike earlier today because of the conditions they have to work in and all the little darlings were locked up all morning so obviously got onto snapchat and organised a riot to get their own back on the staff.

most of those bastards will be released now as there is no suitable place to detain them, I would suggest a wing in a mental hospital like St Ita's in Portrane.

One member of staff was reported to have been seriously injured and taken to hospital after being attacked by inmates yesterday evening. No further details were available.

Eight youths remain on the roof. Six units of Dublin Fire Brigade are at the scene.

A spokesperson for the Minister for Children, Katherine Zappone, said the Minister would not be issuing any comment while the situation was ongoing.

Why would this be in the hands of the minister for Children? Should be the minister for Justice and the Fire brigade should be washing the little bastards off the roof!

Hmm, I'm terrible but I can't help of thinking of inappropriate song titles for the situation - Sleep Now In The Fire by Rage Against The Machine.

maybe some of the staff are part of the problem ?

Lots of mixed reporting at the moment. But the photos on the Indo website look like a lot of damage tonight. Yet Irish Times says Fire Service have it all under control, and the gardai have been there all day. Whatever the truth, taxpayer will face another huge bill to fix all this. How so few youths could take control and cause so much damage so quickly with staff and gardai on site leaves a lot of questions... I do feel sorry for the staff. Not a job most of us would want.
I would imagine the rehabilitation rate is very very small - anyone know?

Yeah. They should never have objected to being constantly assaulted by scumbag criminals and having the people who run the show ignoring it.

Just keep going to work and having the head smacked off you by teenage scummers.

Because society refuses to accept that "bad" people exist. We treat everyone with kid gloves no matter how bad they behave. The authorities i.e. gardai and the people supervising these "juveniles" are afraid of their lives to be robust or enforce any sort of order that doesn't involve patting them on the back and saying "there, there there".

The ironic thing is that if the real scummers were isolated out of this facility and kept in a proper secure jail it would free up much needed time and resources to help the kids who can and want to be helped.

Skangers indulging in a spot of skanging, napalm should sort it out reasonably sharpish.

It only took 2 teens a few weeks ago to get there hands on keys and swipe cards off some guards funny part was they robbbed other inmates before getting their hands on tools and climed up on the roof ,
After that 5 escaped from the facility,
The Garda are not allowed on the site unless invited by the warden they are usually tuned away from the gates if a staff member dials 999

mynamejeff

The scum of the earth are in that place , they are just younger than most .

their crimes are horrible and they should be treated accordingly .

pepper spray batons and guns if necessary

Replace the entire facility with a firing squad and save the state/normal people loads of hassle and millions of funding.

I hope the Gardai hammered the ****e out of them tonight. I'd pay for tickets to watch it.
