    John Connors has his say on twitter saying it’s lads stealing “loafs of bread from a big corporation”

    Apparently, lidl are “c*nts” who “steal from us every day”.


    Good man, John.

    And this is the guy who got a standing ovation at the IFTAS.

    Lidl should cut their losses and never return to Jobstown, let the inbreeds starve.

    A mandatory life sentence for looting a supermarket?

    We need tougher sentencing in this country, including mandatory terms for specific categories of crimes. But locking up those lads for a quarter of a century for what they done last night? Don't be ridiculous.

    We need some gardai like Lugs Branigan.

    What's ridiculous is the soft attitudes like yours towards these dirtbags.
    Why not lock them up and throw away the key?

    They are nothing but a drain on society, leeching off the rest of us and get handed everything for nothing and this is how they behave.

    They would be the very scumbags who go around robbing houses etc.

    The only thing they have to offer society is multiple offspring who will turn out exactly the same.

    If they were locked up the only people who would miss them would be the person in the post office giving the scum their handouts.

    Time for zero tolerance against the likes of them.

    In fairness to John O Connor, he made that comment regarding BREAD well before there was a JCB used. Everyone is convieniently pretending that's not what happened to fuel their own agenda.

    True, it'd just cost us more money, they should have their throats cut instead. Nip the path they're on in the bud.

    Not on Twitter myself, what has he said since?

    In the first video made public, it was blatantly obvious that slabs of beer were being robbed. Blatantly.

    In addition, he said "Those cunts are robbing us blind everyday". About LIDL. A discount retailer. Very telling that he thinks rock bottom prices are too much to pay.

    He deleted his comment after the JCB attack happened, but his words are being twisted now big time to pretend he was in full support of the whole incident. He's threatening law suits.

    Is that you John?

    Ridiculous? "Locking up those lads for what they done last night" Yeah that's ridiculous yeah right!

    No they were not just 'looting a supermarket" : :rolleyes:

    They tore the fracking place down with a digger - after breaking into it - after robbing it - and stealing the safe and contents!!

    Oh and going up to 30 people out of a job and then attack a Centre supermarket as well!

    In the UK the average length of sentence was almost four times as long as thay given for similar offences. That trend has continued and imo should be implemented here for scrotes that get involved in serious law and disorder incidents like that to send out a message for others and to stop those who choose to get involved ever reoffending again.

    Oh it's ok to rob stuff then but just not use a JCB?

    Did they get it open? It was so easy to smash the shop in but wasn't so easy smashing the safe. Guess the building wasn't knacker-proof.

    Rte news says the safe was found partially open

    I'd say that is dependent on what device it was viewed on. I watched it on my iPhone, and couldn't make out what they had. I'm assuming John O Connor thought it was bread, seeing as that's what he referred to in his post.

    Now, I have for many, many years paid the top rate of income tax. Not a ****ing cent have I ever gotten back.

    In what way are you expecting to get back from it? Its not a credit union that pays dividends.

    How have you managed to live without using anything that was created by tax money? Have you bought your house and never left it?

    Even before the JCB development, his comment was suspect. How many loaves of bread look like a slab of beer?

    And how is LIDL, a discount retailer, "robbing us blind everyday"?

    Yes but they were stealing slabs of beer, not bread. Then there is this nonsense of that they are robbing from us???

    The chap is a moron. He was trying to talk people into organising a Coup a few months ago.

    I saw it on my phone first, there was absolutely no mistaking what was being nabbed.

    And the "robbing us blind everyday" comment?

    And even if it WAS bread... that's fine, is it? :confused:

    Nope

    Personally I hope Lidl and other "corporations sue his ass_ for stating that ...

    These cnuts are robbing all of us everyday

    Glad they got screenshots before he deleted that tweet ...

    So it wasn’t found safe and well?

    A life sentence for that, as scummy as it was, would be ridiculous. You see child peados getting a year or two ffs.

    Sentencing as a whole needs to be looked at.

    These clowns are pond scum, but there's much worse crimes that are punished lightly in this country.

    that will be their defence...that they were stealing loaves of bread to feed their starving babies lol.

    Anyone argues with them and they'll say the beer was photoshopped/edited into the clip

    The robbing us blind comment has no basis, but I don't see any need to over analyze it?

    I'm not overanalysing it; it's very simple. LIDL is a discount retailer but he thinks they charge too much. Interesting insight into his mindset.

    There is no defending this gobshyte. Just give it up.

    He was condoning thieving, no two ways about it.

    That also pays their staff a living wage.
    I am beyond shocked at the carry on in Tallaght, absolutely disgusting. You’ll have the bleeding hearts on Joe Duffy Monday ‘aw joe ders nuthin for de kids round here anal’

    I don't have a soft attitude. I work in the legal system and the lack of consistency in sentencing sickens me, particularly in the District Court (although, admittedly, the perpetrator's of last night's events will be put forward for trial at Circuit where they'll get more of what they deserve). I want to see people get stiffer penalties where appropriate. But 'appropriate' is the key word.

    Should last night's events lead to mandatory life sentences? Should the punishment for the destruction of private property be the same as that for murder? I think that's an utterly ridiculous suggestion. Worse, even. It's dangerous.

    Anyway, I came across this thread earlier this morning but it's only in the last few minutes I've realised the tenor of the arguments being put forward. People are just venting, and that's fine. But I'm not wasting my morning discussing penology with people that are suggesting slitting throats as an appropriate penalty.

    Good luck.
