    Yes but did the council call over to administer drug tests? And if not why not? ;)


    what?

    The council killed those poor people!

    I blame fluoride. They only tampered with that hydrant to try to remove fluoride.

    No it's the light poles that they tap into.

    Its desperately sad, those poor children, one of them was six months old.

    There is no sense within this community of anyone taking leadership on alcohol abuse.

    There is no sense within that community, full stop.

    I know and then we read about a traveller studying to PHD level and she trots out all the racist anti travellers stuff ad nauseum as part of her thesis. This was an utterly pointless exercise and a study of alcohol abuse within her community could have reaped dividends for the next generation of travellers. Surely you must have subject matter for a pHD approved and you could get the gist of what the PHD consisted of by reading over comments from Pavee POint.

    All the adults who died in Carrickmines were young, I wonder how much education they had and were any of them employed.

    While I have no doubt that Phd level thesis takes a considerable amount of work getting sometime approved by social work peers in a university is very easy if your ideas are extremely left wing.

    Her PhD isn't really a big deal. Personally, I don't really respect PhDs that don't fall under the science/engineering/medicine umbrella. You can tell by the title of her thesis that the "conclusion" was probably already arrived at before she even started.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,797 ✭✭✭tretorn


    But a traveller getting to University is a big deal when you look at the attainment educational levels for most travellers.

    What was it about her traveller background that led her to continue schooling past second level Junior Cert when most of her peer group seem to start families at sixteen and seventeen and then remain welfare dependent for the remainder of their lives but still seem to have plenty of money to spend on alcohol to blunt the misery of this existence.

    To achieve PhD level education, she wasn't living in a halting site, didn't leave school at 12 and get married at 15. My guess is that she and her parents are Traveller in name only and have been living a settled life. How many of Margaret's children will be encouraged to go to university? I hope her daughter at least finishes secondary school.

    With that yoke as a mother they haven't a hope in life apart from living the life of doing nothing and rolling in cash.

    Back on the subject of Ms.Cash it's another day, another dodgy Facebook raffle, she straight away snapped up a €100 ticket for a 1.75% chance of winning a car.. Presumably the car is stolen or something too because otherwise I'm not sure why he's raffling it off on Facebook for half the resale value.

    We're overdue a post about her not having enough money left each month for food and clothing for the kids, I'm sure there's one coming soon.

    HOW are the council responsible? :confused: Seriously, there was nothing they could have done. They could have had 50 working fire extinguishers on hand and it would not have made a difference as the adults were unconscious. The adults acted irresponsibly and unfortunately they and the children paid the highest price.

    My mother started locking the kitchen door when my brother went out because she woke up one night and smelled hot oil. She went downstairs and found my brother passed out on the couch in the sitting room. He had turned on the fryer in the kitchen and fallen asleep waiting for it to heat up. Fortunately it was an electric deep fat fryer with temperature control but it still could've ended up badly for us. If the house had burned down and killed the lot of us the only person responsible would've been my brother.

    Or maybe you would blame my mother because she should have been psychic and predicted my brothers stupid behaviour and taken action before it happened. Of course you wouldn't. Just like you can't blame the council here. They could not have predicted that adults would behave so irresponsibly. They are in no way to blame here. It was an absolute tragic accident what happened. The adults got carried away and made a stupid mistake. The council could not have stopped that.

    Honestly, I think you know at this stage there was nothing the council could do but you're digging your heels in because you can't admit you got it wrong.

    Nope, . Digging my heels in because you don't get it despite being told repeatedly. ...you are wrong again .
    What I pointed to was the blatant disregard for fifa safety regulation enforcement over a long period of time , due to fear laziness , ignorance , don't know . But the regulations are there and are clear for everyone else. Those caravans/ portacabins had no hope of not being engulfed because they were pushed together on an inadequate site. They should have been 6 metres at least apart. That is why they all went up. I am not excusing the cause of the fire, but how it spread.

    One of the families bought the caravan/portacabin onto the site, without permission of the council and pushed it up against the other caravan/portacabin.

    Its the family that should have left them 6 metres apart, but they didn't. Them and them alone are responsible for the fire.

    It was most likely fear. The council do not have the training to deal with violent criminals. Without the illegal activity and violence many of the problems you talk about no longer exist.

    Who pushed them together?

    It’s not the only thing that needs to be pushed together.

    You couldn't write this crap. Had the council not provided the accommodation on health and safety grounds you'd be on here moralising about that too.

    Am I seriously seeing that clown zampadildo on a late late repeat?

    "Thomas Connors had a blood alcohol level of 224 milligrams per cent at autopsy, the equivalent of around six pints. He had recently consumed a large volume of chips, the court heard. Coroner Dr Myra Cullinane said this was significant as the cause of the fire was a chip pan left on the hot plate of an electric cooker.

    Connors was the only victim to have consumed chips shortly before the fire, the court heard"


    But muh, d'Council...

    How could he be blamed, the oil was to blame, should go after the manufacturer of the oil.

    You seem like the sort of person who would shoot yourself in the leg with a gun and then blame someone else for not stopping you from pulling the trigger.

    The council should have had a chef on site in case anyone wanted a snack after the feed of beer and drugs. It is a disgraceful sign of the bigotry and racism in Ireland that a chef wasn't present at all times.
