    Thread reported for Machine fascism. It's a fcuking excavator not a JCB.

    Just seems to be a few hours in between the looting and the JCB.

    The place must gave been empty by the time the JCB arrived.

    The roads were definitely atrocious anyway. Cars were crawling along at 5mph in Dublin today (those that dared to venture out). There's no way the Gardai could have responded speedily and got there quickly.

    Not sure what the time frame of incidents was tonight.

    In other words these people has nothing to do with the initial break in, they were just joining in for the craic. You can see guys carrying beer, kids carrying things. It has nothing to do with race, just people being opportunists

    I really wish people would post the other videos they claim exist of other Irish lads looting, driving JCBs, breaking into other stores.

    Ive only seen a few videos and they are of the same lads looting and celebrating.

    If people have them why are they not showing them?

    Sky News and Daily Mail running with the story, Id expect German media to be all over it tomorrow too.

    Most of us are probably the sort who are up for givin' people a fair chance at life. Try your best all round. We'll all be dead anyways.

    This shít is worrying though; West Dublin, no support structures around family and ethos, no history of family looking towards education or betterment; a social welfare system that gives, but rarely asks. Personally think that immigration is a good thing (have two Egyptian lads who are mad for work). Europe is doing something silly though at the moment though.

    Does anyone know if he had the relevant skills card to drive that excavator?

    The pictures I posted above show a lot of people, clearly carrying things out of the Lidl shop. You mean to tell me that all of them are black? Even if they are, how does that mean they aren't irish?? Even in the videos of black men looting Lidl, the accents are as irish as mine

    Its just a simple Irish thing like calling a vacuum cleaner a hoover. Hoover is a brand
    Or calling a 4x4 a Jeep. As you know a Jeep is a brand of 4x4.
    But you are right its an excavator, totally different to a Jcb

    We know no better

    Let me figure out how to and I gladly will

    I saw a sad photo on a dog rescue site today. It was a dog frozen to death in the snow in Jobstown, Tallaght. I wondered how his owner could let their dog roam like that in this weather. Then I wondered how in a built up area like that with lots of people around how nobody saw it out and about and took him in for the night. After watching these videos i know the answer to both questions. It must be hell for normal decent people having to live in a cesspool like that.

    Disgraceful, but not unexpected.

    If you had to stake a single euro on that area (and others like it) getting better or worse in the future, what would you bet?!

    You have been shown. You then embarassingly(for yourself) claimed not see any white people in the video.

    Your transparent man. Up your game.

    I was surprised how relatively professional the guy handling the excavator was, didn't look like someone on his first go on one.

    I suppose it is newsworthy. Very unusual that people would respond to a severe weather event in a criminal and opportunistic fashion.

    There were loads of stories today of acts of kindness and people helping each other out.

    There is Dunnes Stores directly across the road from the demolished Lidl. Over in Citywest Shopping Centre. They sell Tennent's there, thank fook.

    Does anyone remember the electrical fire which destroyed the Aldi at Newlands cross some years back? It was back up and running fairly soon afterwards.

    I'm half cut by now and in Winter Wonderland here! :eek: Be good! :)

    Some nice generalisations there. Also, IT Tallght and Blanch IT would go against that.

    The picture shows people but that is all you can make out.

    Look through this thread and there are plenty of claims of videos but yet none are shown.
    .
    Its as if people have to lie in some attempt to try and balance out blame.

    I just want the truth.

    I laugh at that actually :p
    So these black guys sent out some snapchats not realising people can save it and share. Thinking that no way would their "mates" share it online for them to be identified lol.

    Stupid. Then again... makes sense they'd be stupid.

    Thought as much.
    I'd put my money on him working on building sites while on the dole at the same time :pac:

    Have you got a video of this to prove it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,977 ✭✭✭PandaPoo

    Obviously f*cking not. I'd murder them with my bare hands before they got beyond the porch.
    White, Irish, black, still irish, travellers, on the dole, hard workers, I don't care
    I would LITERALLY smash their heads off cement before they could even touch my belongings or hurt my family.
    But they get caught after robbing me blind or beating up an old lady, or a special needs man at a dart station and they get 2 years behind bars....off out with their 70 previous convictions to do it again.

    My point is I don't care if they're aliens, they need to be punished before it gets to this point. There's no way in hell these guys hopped on a jcb and destroyed a business and this was their first offence.

    Wonder where he might have got loads of practice?

    Nope. You quoted a video. I'm not finding it for you and you wouldn't want me to either.

    Your little conspiracy isn't working,neither will it.

    Again

    So transparent
