Why aren't we going after the judges with such venom? Or the parasitic free legal aid industry?

Law we have 2 sets of parasites laughing at us here.

Why are they not calling these out for what they are?

Gangs of travellers threatening, intimidating and assaulting farmers for confronting them for trespassing.

The Gardai do fúck all about them too.

"roving gangs" "people with lurcher dogs"

politically correct nonsense

I can imagine Pavee Point behind the scenes trying to sanitise the message.

prime time finally mentioning the travellers, well, a voice over the credits asking if peter casey voters are racist

for fúck sake

I always assumed the media were not "allowed" to report specifically that the people involved in certain stories are travellers? it is always hinted at in articles but never stated.

Oh right.

So the 130 tds in the Dáil have it sussed out but the 4.8 other million people don’t.

Good point....

Where did the term 'Travellers' come from anyway? It's not what I call them....

Our betters are telling us how to think, we'd best listen to them, they are the cultured intelligencia we are the barstoolers on low incomes...we should be grateful to them!

If it wasn't for Peter Casey and the 23% of us who voted for him RTE would not be highlighting this 3 days later. Of course the fact travellers are involved is being hidden but the viewers must know.

RTE are cheap but they are not quick, this will have been in the works for months with some topical VO to take in to account the thoughts of Chairman Casey

Then maybe it's time we elected different ones.

Not trump lite gowls who only punch down.

Proper ones who will tackle the parasites in the legal and property sectors as well as the parasites who abuse the social welfare system and terrorise people who are just trying to get by.

If we dont get that let's not forget this state was founded by a revolution, perhaps we might need another one

We already have national, local and European elections at least every 5 years.

We don't need a revolution. We need people to understand that if they are willing to do the work they stand a good chance to get elected.

I wouldn't be too sure of that. History has proven the majority of the irish people will vote for some gombeen who promises them some short term trinket instead

Calhoun · 30-10-2018 11:34PM

I think and I hope this is a cry for help from the farming community which I hope is acted on before it escalates.

It's like that Fintan O'Toole article about the tallaght housing estate with vigilante gaurds at the entrance of the estate. What must have happened for it to get that far.

Nothing good comes from escalation of violence.

Then we get the government we deserve and by extension should be looking at ourselves instead of giving out about them if we are unhappy?

How many reading this thread would be willing to do that do you think?

They're doing their best with poor resources and little chance of justice. Unfair of non guards to blame the guards as if they know what to do differently.

The real fact was: a crime was committed by non travellers - who's denying that and how does it change that crime is disproportionately high among travellers?

The hardworking farmers of the breadbasket of North Dublin want to take the law into their own hands to protect their livelihoods

Any objections?

Not many though I generally despair for humanity, no doubt someone less morose than I will pop by soon enough

bb12 · 30-10-2018 11:39PM

nobody ever seems to mention that the so-called purpose of bringing these lurchers out is to hunt hares, which are a protected species in ireland. they're breaking national and international protective orders on that point alone.

archer22 · 30-10-2018 11:39PM

In fairness the 'gentlemen' on horseback who invade farmers land every year aren't any better.
Lots of altercations between them and rural dwellers as well and damage caused.

And the guards won't touch them either.

Read Des O'Malleys book, the last Irish person to successfully launch a Political Party in this state, at a highly dysfunctional period in our history.

It is extremely difficult to challenge the political establishment, we have just witnessed a brief example, MDHs got elected to a €250,000 job for another 7 years, he achieved this by playing the system and playing the voters.

A week is a long time in politics they say, who do you think protected who during that last week of the campaign.

MDHs voters may well feel confident in their choice of candidate, the media certainly will help you to feel good about it, but the media neglected to ask some very uncomfortable questions to Higgins, not one Higgins supporter has earned the right to feel smug about their choice!

What we need is a completely new constitution.

We urgently need to protect ourselves against unaccountability and abuse of office in our State Institutions.

That would be a start.

Anyone who wants to live in a decent and fair society should be against people taking the lawninto their own hands.

I understand why they are saying this but it's not right.

Especially considering to do it right they will need to organize a bunch of rural folk as 1 farmer versus a group of travellers won't be enough. More than likely it will escalate to a group of vigilantes versus a group on the other side.

You're not allowed call travellers nackers, but you can call anyone else a nacker. Thats the rule.
