Scum night of rampage and general lack of appropriate sentencing.

Its a fckuing disgrace! What is the reason for such leniency in Ireland???

• Difficult home life
• Difficult upbringing
• Substance abuse issues
• Bright young men
• Promising footballers (yes that has been used in court)
• Battling Addictions
• Lost their way
• Fell in with the wrong crowd
• Learning difficulties
• Struggling to turn their lives around
• They feel genuine remorse (honest)

there's a point where people snap, and take to the streets, I hope for the sake of these judges and lawyers, it's not too violent when the time comes (I actually don't).

The problem as a poster pointed out above is that the judges who pass the sentences do not have to live amongst these animals, their only interaction with them is when they are in front of them in court, other than that they may see them out their car window as they drive back to the leafy suburbs. I almost think in their mind they get some sort of good deed kick by sparing the peasantry.

I guarantee if these animals went on regular rampages where the judges live things would change as it might wake them up to the reality of what it’s like to come face to face with vermin like this in real life, not reading about it in a police report. Until then the judges will keep letting these scum off and inflict them on the rest of us. I’d make these guys laugh, 20 years minimum if you go out in a gang with the purpose of harming innocent people, dirt on the end of your shoe is all they are.

This is probably the one area of my life in which I'd be considered very right wing. Scumbags who commit random acts of extreme violence "for the craic" should be jailed indefinitely IMO, they have personality issues which make them highly unlikely to ever not be a danger to innocent members of the public. When people grow out of this sh!t in their early teens, that's one thing. When it persists into adulthood, that's when in my view it becomes more of a fixed personality trait and not something that's likely to change.

As far as I'm concerned, the fact that an attack was committed for literally no reason should be considered an aggravating factor in sentencing. It essentially means that the assailant is, for want of a clinical term, just a straight up nasty person.

Could not agree more. We seem to have in society a sympathy for young male aggression especially if they are lower social class. A kind of warped explanation for what they engage in. Sure - they were just having the craic and don't know any better because they are poor and uneducated.

My theory on this is that socialists have brought this thinking about. They are lower class because of capitalism and thus society should bare responsibility because of a failure of capitalism for creating lower social classes in the first place and all the criminality that invariably goes with it.

My view is that the lower social classes are not a failure of capitalism but a failure of human beings.

Our Northern brethren have a certain way of dealing with these sort of f**ks, I'd even pay their Enterprise Train fare.

If you are talking about punishment beatings, I can tell you they don't work.

There is an endless supply of scumbags in the northern cities too, the fear of getting shot in the legs or having them broken with hammers doesn't deter them in the slightest.

If it worked the North would be a nice place with no scumbags, it ain't.
