    I never mentioned anything about non-nationals just what I read in the media.

    Should have just went with bunch of black scumbags straight from the start just so there was no confusion, same with the way we call the lads in the car crash on the N7 scumbags.

    A quick glance over the OP's posting history reveals a distinct trend...
    Doesn't have much time for 'non-nationals,' doesn't see why some might have a problem with the term 'non-national,' doesn't like marriage equality, thinks we're all too soft on refugees in general and Islam in particular.
    My suspicion is that the OP is suffering from CD (Chronological Displacement), a debilitating condition whereby those afflicted are forced to live in a century that is incompatible with their bigoted and narrow-minded worldview. The OP has nineteenth century ideals but must bravely soldier on in twenty-first century Ireland.

    You fail to mention which OP so please do tell who you are referring to.

    No such thing as a " non National"- everyone has a nationality.

    I wonder is it because they're black or from Dublin 15 that makes them scumbags /s





    /s = sarcasm and satire

    So edgy OP. That far-right, ethnonationalist, ultra-catholic political party will sweep to power any day now. Any day.

    Keep up the good work.

    Nope. They seem to have to be non of nationals to warrant a thread.

    Ongar/Hansfield area has always been a bit rough, some really decent families living there, but it’s known to be a bit of a trouble spot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,033 ✭✭✭✭Richard Hillman


    There is a massive gang problem emerging in West Dublin (Yes, I know that could be deemed old news). I used to see massive gangs when I travelled out there regularly 4-5 years ago.

    It started off with just general obnoxious behavior. Massive gangs of about 20-30 of them bunking busses at a time and the driver not bothering with the hassle. Then you'd hear of the same gangs getting involved in mass brawls, low level thefts etc. It seems to be elevating into muggings, drug dealing etc as they grow into their late teens-early 20s. These are the same gangs that were regularly causing trouble around Jervis Street shopping centre a few years ago.

    We shouldn't underestimate Rap Culture, "Thug Life" and so on. British gang culture in particular is starting to emerge in West Dublin and out towards Tallaght. A lot of these guys have close relatives living in these London Ghettos.

    I use to think this was all BS and made up. But after seeing these gangs (of wannabe london ghetto) fighting in the city centre this year I 100% agree with your post.

    People will laugh at you and call you whatever but there's a group of little sh*ts up there that go around with baseball bats and the likes and it's intimidating to the locals. This one was captioned ''Straight Outta Tyrellstown'' which is certainly an homage to rap culture.

    We've been starved of things to blame foreigners for judging by the absolute mass ejaculation today on comment sections

    They're not foreign. They're just scrotes. Also, that's your 10,000th post, congrats :)

    Sounds to me like the Op is living in the real world and has a grasp of reality. It would help if others got away from their laptops and TV and their parents house once in a while, travel to different places outside Europe and within and it might open their closed minds to the reality of the world.

    Yes they are Scumbags.

    Your German masters command it that's why.

    No no no, not at all. Not at all... only every time a taxi gets robbed by some who is non Irish, non white or both. Or if we don't know their nationality or skin colour, in which case we can just assume they are black and not Irish.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,862 ✭✭✭✭January


    Why do you only mention ttown when the article clearly also states Ongar and clonee?

    How long have Germany been demanding we import Nigerian, Ghanaian etc People? Cos there's been scaremongering in the media for about 20 years now. These lads are 2nd generation, so they havnt come here in the last decade.

    Thought they were forcing us to take in the likes of Syrians? Or are we moving goalposts to suit arguments cos these lads are too dark and too young to be Merkel kids?

    Prediction: Acid used in robberies and score settling within the next few years.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,406 ✭✭✭PirateShampoo


    Sure I live in a wonderful housing estate in Tallaght where the population demographic swings hugely in favor of a particular group of people.

    Most of them are polite and respectable, but see thier bloody kids, we have had postmen, taxi drivers, delivery drivers all robbed by them. They are scum.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,023 ✭✭✭testaccount123


    This is the same hooliganism problem that has existed in various areas of Dublin since the eighteenth century. The colour of the perpetrators has nothing to do with it.

    I was expecting that photo to be trotted out again. That must be years old and half them probably don't live there anymore.

    100% agree. I grew up in Tallaght in the 80s, these lads are mild compared to some of my former neighbours.

    At least we didn’t have gangs though, it’s tough to organise a gang when all the prospective members are on smack.

    I'm against hooliganism but I like the idea of a gang of black people challenging the settled hooligans. Theres too many irish hooligans that get away with far worse these days. Also sick of hearing inner city accents from people that live in west dublin. Its not the liberties out there.
