    ill happily believe a productive business man who has created many jobs over a chancer and a sponger


    He only wants travellers to settle down so he can lease houses to them

    He is that weird sort of Derry tan, more English than the English themselves

    Absolute boils my brain their carry on. I pass that empty site on a regular basis in Thurles and it's a disgrace. They contribute NOTHING to society and are a pain on peoples lives. They have headstones worth €50k each above in the cemetery in Thurles, 3 of them side by side, they can build what they want where they want and respect no-one else's graves beside them.


    One day, they cut down the branches of some big old tress by these graves, because the birds were dropping from them onto these large headstones, all whilst drinking cans.

    Staff and visitors engaged with them when carrying out this, and they carried on regardless with no respect or care in the world.

    Think for yourself instead of buying into a fad.

    I voted no, because they don't deserve an apology.

    Is the State apologizing to all travelers or just some? Because I definitely don't think the travelers that have battered pensioners in their homes, have convictions the length of a short novel, horrendously abuse animals (and anyone else who stand in their way) and are generally an overwhelming burden on society deserve an apology, do you?

    Wanting an "ethnic minority" to cop the f*ck on, stop being backwards criminals and instead contribute to society along with being overall positive and valuable influences on those around them isn't being racist.

    Finally someone has the balls to speak out against these scumbags, I wasn't going to vote in the election but this guy gets my vote.

    I've yet to see one example of a traveler doing anything good for society. And no, fighting doesn't count.

    Yeah but don't you understand....they are doing all of those things because we as a society have left them with no other choices....none you hear me...none

    Or at least that seems to be the reasoning of some people :confused:

    We’ll see her with her megaphone outside penny’s next, shouting about how penny’s are robbing her and how she deserves to dress for free

    38 previous convictions. I read somewhere she was getting something like €50k in benefits - what's that the equivalent of? €70k, €80k salary? And you have idiots defending her.

    She might just be the woman to wake up the nation to the nonsense that is going on.
    I think traveller reps may eventually pull her aside cause she is in danger of bringing down the whole show and bring an end to the good times for them all.
    You can do it too good and I think it clear that she is doing just that.

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,480 ✭✭✭bloodless_coup


    How did she manage to get 37 road traffic convictions?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 468 ✭✭w/s/p/c/


    38 previous convictions... wow

    Ah sure it's their culture

    reposting this for the lols

    "talk about travellers like there dirt the cheek of him"
    "mr peter casey really should understand we just wanna live like every1 else."

    Since when does stealing €300 quid worth of clothes out of Penney's fall under the "live like every1 else" criteria?

    I doubt "every1 else" has a conviction list the length of an a4 page either so...

    She's the traveler everyone feels sorry for?

    He's got my number 1.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,518 ✭✭✭✭GreeBo


    I'll apologise to them (for the nothing I did to them) when they apologise to me for nicking my bike when I was 12.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭Jerichoholic


    The only good traveler is a time traveler.

    They have attacked a very sick and dying relative of mine on his way back from a hospital appointment.

    I have been attacked on numerous occasions by the traveller community.

    I have witnessed a traveller "mother" encourage her children to target a person with down syndrome, she said "theres an owl ejit get something out of him".

    Every single person I have asked has told me they have had a negative experience with travellers to one degree or another, this proves they are far more likely to be involved in a negative interaction than the wider public.

    Only a few months ago two drunken travellers were eating some burger king in a laneway just off of o'connell street, they seen me looking at them and tried to call me over, I turned and walked away as fast as I could, according to some people on this I should have just given them a chance? Do you think anything positive would have came from me going over to them?

    The statistics regarding this group speak for themselves. Nine out of ten people have had a negatives experience and they make up less than 1% of the overall population.

    Ironic that Ms.Cash is able to spell the word cúnt perfectly but struggles with pretty much every other word in the english language.
