    You can google it. Allegedly happened two nights ago.

    I am really surprised this is not on RTE news considering the raft of crime being reported in recent weeks.

    Is there a restriction on reporting rape allegations?

    Not reporting restrictions but out of respect for the privacy of the woman attached and the investigation.

    Not every tidbit of information needs to be spoon fed to the voyeuristic twiter brigade or the papers who would cynically use this attach to sell their salacious rags which until quite recently made a virtue of exploited women on page 3.

    I couldn't find it.

    Fair enough. It is well hidden though as I went through two "more" clicks on the main page checking for a report on it.

    News reports there from the Sun, Mirror, KFM, Independent and RTE.

    Oh and here it is in the Irish Times.

    What does the nationality of offenders have to do with anything?
    A rapist is a rapist.

    They weren't reported as being from the same region as the UK rape gangs.

    Rapists come from all races, & backgrounds. They can have any job or no job.

    100% relevant.
    Has been reported that they're Foreign Nationals.
    May have a history of the same kind of shenanigans and might make any other potential victim more wary

    Have you seen the amount of people killed in Ireland by Irish men this year? I know who I'd be wary of.

    Yes i'm not arguing with that, but a much higher % are black foreign nationals,
    no woman i know will get into a taxi with a black driver by herself,

    After your antics in the Repeal the 8th thread, it's very hard to take you seriously Anne. I don't think I had ever seen a poster go off the rails like you did. Could this be one of the hard cases you refused to discuss?

    I love Blaxi drivers! Nearly always chipper and up for a bitta craic. I'm confused though, I thought it was Pakistani Muslims that had the monopoly on being rapists, now I'm hearing it's black foreign nationals? I can't keep up.

    I think we should just ban everyone. Men and women. It's the only way

    No woman I know would refuse to get into a taxi with a black driver, even by herself. Maybe you should consider finding new, less racist friends?

    There's one driver that I'm desperately trying to avoid. Anytime he's driving me, he's trying to find out if I had sex lately. He's white, pure Irish. :rolleyes:
