The idiots behind sulky racing

    Just read the below article in the independent. These people really are sub human, they lack intelligence, compassion, empathy and just basic common sense.

    Sulky racing is bad enough without the added obstruction of cars/white vans "protecting the race".

    I hope this woman and her unborn child are ok and for the the cretins involved in the race, well I can't really say what I'd like to see happen them.

    I wonder will any arrests be made.......

    The shocked motorists were left even more distressed when the procession of cars returned to the scene, recording the damage they had caused on mobile phones and jeering at the scene of the accident.

    It's their culture, their fathers father and his father before him raced sulkys on motorways and chased them in Landcruisers and Hiaces.

    It's not for you. It's for 'them'.

    Everyone wants to say what they really think of these "people" but we all know we'd be banned if we told it like it was.

    Nobody's seriously saying that. We just can't say much more.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,522 ✭✭✭Wheety


    Yup, it's their culture. Nothing we can do about it. You'd be sued for even trying to stop it. Ethnic minority don't ya know?

    If you think a pregnant woman’s safety is more important than the rights of a community to be cruel to defenseless animals then you are a racist.

    I'd encourage anyone that is genuinely concerned to send off a mail to the relevant ministers in this area. Absolutely crazy that we have this kind of activity in 2018

    Selfish bast*rds. Scumbag behaviour.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,609 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    I know if you or me raced a sulky up a main road we'd be arrested (and rightly so).

    Yet for some it is allowed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,798 ✭✭✭✭DrumSteve


    They came back to jeer a pregnant lady in a car crash?

    Lower than snake ****.

    The people giving out about the people giving out about sulky racers have most likely never had to deal with these apes on a daily basis outside of photo opps or placard waving outside Lenister house.
    If they like them so much, have them race up and down their roads outside their houses.

    What pavee point are you trying to make?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,065 ✭✭✭✭Odyssey 2005


    Gardaí attended the scene but it is not clear what action was taken.

    I think we annknow what action was taken...NONE.

    Sulky racing is deserving of attention from the state. But the real danger and damage was caused by the motor procession around it. Those guys were purposely running traffic off the road, with no concern for anybody else's safety. They should lose their licenses for good, and see the inside of a cell. Ethnic background has nothing to do with it.

    I'll be interested to see whether or not there are court cases arising from this, and what the outcome is. But I won't be surprised if the state just shrugs its shoulders and says "what can we do?".

    You know what will happen, the car that rear ended the pregnant ladies car will end up paying out for any and all damages.

    the van drivers and their spawn will continue to cause havoc and laugh at the videos they took.
