There is no justice in Ireland, the majority of the Gardai are corrupt and the judges are in the side of the criminals and the parasitic legal profession, if any thieves come to me I’ll deal with them myself, and if anyone of my family were murdered etc I would execute them myself. Until sentencing gets longer and more prisons are built and bring back hanging and the death sentence then or is a complete waste of time. People can’t be rehabilitated they need to be put down and anyone with 10+ convictions should be killed or 3+ serious convictions. The liberal left wing politics is the biggest threat to Ireland, all drug addicts around the country should be rounded up and taken into prison and executed. If there was a proper harsh justice system things would quickly change for the better. Look at places like Dubai and Singapore to see what zero tolerance can achieve.

If we stop incentivising reproduction by people thst are unable and/or unwillling to raise children. Ive more sympathy for a victim of crime than the perpetrator. But thats just me.

One of my early experiences in AGS was when we used to transport prisoners convicted in court to a custodial sentence. We would have bring the prisoner down to the jail, and return back to the station. Where I was based, this was usually at least 2 hours away. We brought one lad to Cork prisoner one afternoon after he was convicted to 3 weeks for a burglary (nothing taken, no damage, but previous convictions for the same). We got there at around 13.30. Dropped off the prisoner, got something quick to eat (as no lunch that day due to the escort), and were coming back into our station area, and there was pal walking back into the city from the train station. Stopped and asked him 'WTF!?', and he said they had no room, gave him €20 and a train ticket, and he was back the same time as us! So yes, we should have at least 1 more prison. I wanted Spike Island re-opened for high profile criminals, but instead they made it into a tourist attraction. There is not enough room to keep repeat offenders in, and they end up back on the street and doing the same as usual, knowing that it will take a lot or something really serious to land actual prison time, so the lovely criminals of this country commit crime knowing this, and laugh at the Gardaí who are constantly arresting them over and over for the same things, even while out on bail. So yes, more prisons should be a priority. I'd rather they be locked up and off the streets, rather than swanning around while on bail, still committing crime. It's a joke. And concurrent sentencing... There should be no such thing! Gowl the other day, out on bail for a serious offence, committed the same offence again, and got a concurrent sentence... I know rehabilitation is the key, but this country can't do that right yet, so until then, more prisons, longer sentences. Out of sight, out of mind is right in this case.

I agree these idiots shouldn't be having loads of kids, but it's not the children's fault they were born so should they really have to suffer based on their parents poor choices?
