Man In Critical Condition After Dublin Stabbing

I wish I could say I was surprised but I'm not.

This is our new norm now and it will gradually get worse and worse. We see it throughout Europe (namely Sweden) but instead of learning from it we are doom to repeat their mistakes

Mod Edit: Warned for breach of forum charter

Marlborough Street, Edan Quay has always been a dodgy area with drug dealing and using in any of the lanes off them.

I worked in the area for years and was always a kip, loads of stabbings and beatings on a daily basis. Back of Wynn's and the Abbey's lane, long before the new Irish arrived.

The Luas really made it worse as it got them into town much earlier so an all day thing and the Hackett bridge makes a handy getaway to a different policing area.

I'm sure it's even worse now with new gangs around.
