This sounds like an exaggeration, but I was having lunch in Smithfield a few years ago with a friend. He pointed out a smartly dressed man and described how he had made a lot of money from the tribunals, but his property investments did poorly in the recession. So much so, that the man was now seriously having to contemplate selling his chateau in France. My friend swore that was true.

Don’t just comment here,Email T. Ds and Ministers. I emailed Katherine Zappone about changing laws for viewing child abuse material and Charlie Flanagan for violent offenders getting repeated suspended sentences. Tell them to raise the issue of sentencing in the Dáil. Can you imagine if 1000 people did that? They have to respond also.

He does seem to have a soft spot for peados and wife beaters does mr nolan .

All the rest just live in Narnia, I believe on of them advised a fellas that the correct approach to deal with a gang of feral scum was to reason with them .....

Give me f#$kin strenght

Irish Guitarist · 24-10-2019 09:24AM

I like how the story names the witnesses as well as describing where they were when this happened. Great idea to let armed robbers know the people who informed on them.

NasserShammaz · 24-10-2019 12:32PM

Bear in mind that the 2 f$#king cockroaches that did this are probably

1. Being housed by Dublin city council
2. Getting €188 a week while they look for a job....
3. Have a medical card
4. Get free travel.
5. Have never in their worthless fu#king lives contributed anything but have been a constant drain on resources and have 60/80/100 convictions...

And will get a fuc$king bonus at Christmas .

F$#k this dying country don't let your kids ever pay tax if even a penny is still going to maintain the f$#kin scum.

Kermit.de.frog · 24-10-2019 12:33PM

Any arrests?

Is it even possible, unless the gardai are trying to be incompetent, that neither of these scumbags have been picked up despite the clarity of the CCTV?

I think we have a right to know what our so called police are doing.

You just completely ignored my point on mistaken identity and the wrong people getting attacked. Pretty happy you've no role in the criminal justice system.

I put it to you that...

1) vigilante action is no less illegal then waving a gun in a tourists face in the street. Identifying a dangerous criminal at large in no way changes that fact, both actors should be subject to the law.

2) How many people are likely to be subject to vigilante justice based on mistaken identity Vs. the number of people likely to be robbed at gunpoint by a dangerous criminal that hasn't been identified because the public aren't allowed identify him to the police?

3) Your arguments are so reductio ad absurdum that they actually encourage people to take action outside the law since your attitude contributes so much to peoples complete lack of confidence in the justice system.

One scumbag arrested.

Should be automatic 10 year jail sentence for armed robbery. That's what proper countries do.

They were going to build Thornton Hall mega prison for the scrotes but the do gooders didn't want that. Now the judges are partially too lenient but also have no where to put them.

IIRC Michael McDowell gave a farmer in north county Dublin €30,000,00.00 of taxpayers money for his field to build this. Farmer is still in shock, as is the taxpayer. What’s that site doing now? The farmer has probably leased it back at a € a year or some bull**** like that.

Most striking part of the video is how the assailants just casually walk off with not a care in the world.

They know garda are not showing up there.

One of the biggest garda stations in the country nearby too.

I think the local Garda Sargent and Commissioner Harris (I know he is relatively new) should be dragged in front of a committee to explain to us all why it took 10 minutes to respond to an armed daylight robbery (in the biggest tourist trap in the country!). I think it's time we got answers as to why law enforcement does not work in Dublin.

I'm in town most days and can't remember the last time I saw a garda, maybe a few weeks a go.

Yet, walk by Pearse street everyday and you see all the cars parked up.

What are they all doing if they're not out on patrol?

Even some visibility would be a big deterrent but we have pretty much no visibility.

They are probably sitting in a courtroom all day waiting to give evidence in a speeding ticket case or some other bull**** waste of time

Shoul be but here it Carries a Severe suspended sentence.

If they are council tenants they should be evicted immediately without appeal and not supported again and they should be tagged like the ****in animals they are and made to scrap chewing gum of the streets...

So a suspended sentence it is then

'That’s not my style', says man after he's charged with robbing Italian tourists near Guinness Storehouse

Paul Heaney (35) is alleged to have been one of two robbers who mugged the teacher and her student after they left the Guinness Storehouse this week.
Dublin District Court was told the second alleged robber, who was not charged, was armed with a gun and when Mr Heaney handed himself in to gardaí, he told them: "I didn't rob anyone" and “that’s not my style”.

Addict robbed same bookmakers twice

A DRUG addict who robbed the same bookmaker twice while the same staff member was present has been jailed for almost four years.
Paul Heaney, 33, threatened the female staff member at Paddy Power Bookmakers on Meath Street, Dublin with a large kitchen knife in the first robbery in January. He then returned in October and robbed the bookmakers a second time, threatening the same staff member with a fake gun.

Abusive man admits being high on drugs
A recovering heroin addict who was abusive to Irish Rail passengers and security staff screamed at gardai you lot are b*****ds. I'm not leaving here' as they escorted him from the station.
Paul Heaney (24) said he was high on a cocktail of drink and drugs at the time and does not remember the incident at Portmarnock train station.
He is currently serving a two-and-a-half-year sentence for burglary which was handed down by Bray Circuit Court in April.

Gda Duggan confirmed to defence solicitor Ruth Walsh that Mr Heaney was not the man alleged to have produced the firearm. “He was as surprised as anybody when the other gentleman produced the firearm,” Ms Walsh said.
Gda Duggan said this was what Mr Heaney stated. He accepted the accused was “not the main protagonist”.
Mr Heaney had got “a little bit in over his head” in the company he kept, Ms Walsh said

I wonder does Ruth find it difficult to sleep at night after a days work defending such rodents or does the pay cheque make it all worth it.

glenfieldman · 25-10-2019 10:56PM

Defence solicitors have a poxy job and its no wonder honest people cant stand them, but in fairness in this country they cannot refuse a job just because they dont like the person or the crime

That's why I'd like this info to be out there. Plus, if you do something shameful, then I think you should deal with the public shame.

I agree with this fully, except that the existence of people who would attack a paediatrician because they think it's the same as a paedophile, or would attack a completely innocent man in Monasterevin because an anonymous person on Facebook claimed he was a paedophile, means that innocent people will suffer from the limited intelligence of the mob.

They look like drug addicts to me. The solution to a lot of our problems is for the authorities to do their jobs and keep illegal drugs off our streets. If the can’t (or won’t) do that then provide mandatory detox and rehab for those who will inevitably become addicted and destructive.

Is there such as place on this planet, whereby mind altering substances, legal or illegal, are not available? Maybe we should just increase funding and resources substantially in these areas, to try deal with it more effectively
