Prison needs to be way, way, way tougher to “put manners” on these types. Just on a side note a long prison sentence with gruel and stale bread would do a power of good to the big fat momma in her PJs

The couple, who were planning to have a family, had moved to Dublin only weeks before the scrambler bike incident. Mr Avetian lost his left eye and suffered multiple facial fractures, including to his forehead. His nasal bones were broken, as was his jaw, and he suffered a severe brain injury and haemorrhage.
The 16-year-old scrambler rider was not charged. He did not appear before a court, but was dealt with by the Juvenile Diversion Programme.

But there's plenty of doom and gloom about another recession on the horizon when the effects of the last one are still evident, and we'll see massive unemployment due to automation in the longer term. That's going to push huge numbers of people out of the workforce and into the ranks of the unemployed. Society is in for a shock and there needs to be some serious thought put into how to solve the problem.

He did nothing illegal though, he was within his right to at least call for the lad's arrest (whatever it was he done)

Again a guess but I reckon the Garda made the decision to arrest him there and then to prevent him running into his house and then the Garda later on having to prove it was him on the scrambler. All just guesses but I think I'm probably not far off the mark.

He did nothing illegal though, he was within his right to at least call for the lad's arrest (whatever it was he done) Child was instantly guilty the moment he said "I'm under age" << straight to the lack of respect. Being a smart-arse isn't gonna help you in future, lad. Three fully grown adults jumped in and made it worse. Then the other lad "arrest me, then!", I mean jesus christ will ya ever stop........... I dunno about the spray. Then again, just by looking at the utter nick of the familiy, this must be a regular occurrence, and this is all based on my own ignorance, but I'll own that ignorance as there's never a good side to people of that ilk.. If you don't want people talkin' about you, have a bit of bloody class about you at least. Stop going out into the street in your PJs - I'd say they go to the chipper in those PJs as well, I've seen it so many times. I heard on the radio, a discussion about the possibility of Gárdai having cameras attached to their person while on duty. This is one of those situations where I feel it was absolutely necessary, at least to cover his own arse. Because with that video you only get one side (even though it contradicts themselves and shows they have no clue how to obey the law - deluded) Edit: Just found out it was supposedly a stolen scrambler incident, by which he was possibly, likely, caught with it, and didn't even have the cop-on to at least admit it, and his family equally had no regard for the law by sticking up for the lad. Ridiculous.. or should I say "REdiculus" << (Facebook is full of that drivel. It's fantastic comedy)

Why are you putting up a video without giving details of what is happening/ has happened up to the point that the video starts. 12 years of age is the minimum arrest age but there are exceptions. There is an inexplicable mania in the last 5-10 years for people to share this type of video, car crashes, murder scenes, all sorts of stuff. What is wrong with people? The goings on featured here point to the reason why we shouldn't be building mass 'social housing'.
