Black Gardai

Can people settle an argument for me please. Has anyone ever come across a black guard ?

sumsar · 21-09-2017 08:30AM

Haha now that you say it, I don't ever remember seeing one!

Grahamer666 · 21-09-2017 08:30AM

Not yet. I've seen a few Asian Garda though.

dashoonage · 21-09-2017 08:30AM

Seriously ? **** off.

boombang · 21-09-2017 08:32AM

Is it blaggards you're thinking of?

amcalester · 21-09-2017 08:34AM

No, but I've seen some very very very dark blue Gardai.

beertons · 21-09-2017 08:35AM

Not last night anyway.

BillyBobBS · 21-09-2017 08:35AM

Nope. The Gardai are a deeply racist organisation.

Nekarsulm · 21-09-2017 08:38AM

90% of white applicants can't get in , what chance has a black one?

Any evidence to back that claim?

There's loads of black guards according to the latest garda figures. I've no reason to doubt them.

I'm guessing your Clan buddies told you that BillyBob?

super_furry · 21-09-2017 08:39AM

I've seen a couple of Asian Gardai, but never a black one.

suicide_circus · 21-09-2017 08:40AM

I won't be happy until 50 percent of gardai are black

Fear gorm ?

Beechwoodspark · 21-09-2017 08:45AM

Can't recall ever seeing a non "white Irish" Garda

Kermit.de.frog · 21-09-2017 08:45AM

I have seen a few Mexican Gardaí.

Lack of black Gardai.

Paleblood · 21-09-2017 08:48AM

Garda recruitment is based on the 'Terry's exclusion rule' - no black or orange.

Also another observation, I live in rural Ireland and l don't think an ethic minority Garda could make an arrest of any of the bucks around here.

Fighting Tao · 21-09-2017 08:50AM

Yes I have but I don’t see what the big deal would be.

As Ireland continues to become more diverse, is this an issue that needs to be addressed by some sort of policy

Middle Eastern
Far East
Inuit (Would love to see Inuit Garda, I'd say they take no sh*t.)

I'm sure if black people wanted to join they would be accepted if they met the necessary criteria or do you think we should make an exception for them and apply different criteria to their applications? (Leaving irish language aside as there is already an irish exemption for non irish people)

Not really.

The best person should be picked for the job regardless of their colour.

No point putting in a few black or brown lads just to mix it up a bit and look good for the PC crowd if they aren't up to the job.

Peregrinus · 21-09-2017 08:58AM

There has been at least one.

Googling suggests he was still serving in 2015.

boardsuser1 · 21-09-2017 09:00AM

Any of these guys around?

lazybones32 · 21-09-2017 09:00AM

I want to see more Itinerant Gardai.

Get a few Gurkha is as Gardai.

In fact, get a few hundred in and unleash them on Dublin City.
Crime would be cleared up in 90 days.
