Some girl caught this on her camera phone. She's sending it into RTE. You've seen it here first. We really could of done without that. The government surely should of expected something like this however. I still stand firm this march should of been held up North. No good could come out of it being here.

Great mentality those knackers have isn't it?
"Lets show those brits how unwanted they are here by wrecking our own peoples property!"
F*cking retards.

almv · 25-02-2006 11:51pm

Thats mad - they could prosecute from that footage - here's hoping they do

Attol · 25-02-2006 11:52pm

This is so depressing to watch. I really can't believe that people could act like that... It's just plain scary. I'd be afraid that after the riots there will be more violence in general just because these bastards get cocky.

lol the amount of "trackies" there is unreal,

totally unacceptable behaviour but tbh they are not really the intelligent type...

mike65 · 26-02-2006 12:06am

It makes you think a bit, in NI thats life as normal in the summer for many.

The Gardai will be very interested in that footage and I bet there's quite a bit more floating about.

Atomic Pineapple · 26-02-2006 12:08am

what did anyone expect to happen?

all they needed was a excuse to wreak havoc and what better way to give it to them than by letting a loyalist parade through dublin?

give yobs something like that to unite against and your gonna get a mess anyone with any common sense would have seen this coming long ago.

Yeah, absolutely, it was worse actually being there...

Anyway, the amount of people taking pictures on their phones was quite impressive - though a little annoying (since they'd be of such poor quality etc) but, anyway, you should see PLENTY of this kind of stuff on the web.

Exactly, doesn't excuse it though.

What I found unbelievable though was not only the destruction of other Dubliners property(why the f*ck would they did that god only knows) but the filth actually looted while they were at it.
So they came out of looking extremely bad. The knackers involved(and I'd count every single person at the protest as a knacker) just seemed to have found an excuse to riot(as they also do at soccer matches) and while they were at it went and stole themselves a few new pairs of nike.

And they didn't stop there, they attacked our own police force , our own reporters and our own cameramen. Patriots my arse.
F*cking scum.

The orange men on the other hand got away as quick as possible and then thanked the Gardai for getting them out of there safely.

Lol, looks like he just came out of work, saw what was going on, took off his jacket and tie and said "ah sure f*ck it why not, you only live once".
Bet hes regretting that this evening.

What really pissed me off about it though was the fact they were tearing apart road works and the like, that stuff was paid for by our taxes and these filthy knackers come and raise the bill even higher. The worst part is we're probably also paying for their dole.

There was a chap on RTE news being brought to court who looked just like him, dressed in white overalls.

segadreamcast · 26-02-2006 12:20am

The overturned cars were off Nassau Street, but these photos look North Inner City? I'd be interested to hear myself Ape...

Incidentally, good work Mike...

Finally - ah yes, the looting...I happened to be right beside it as it happened (I really had a knack for catching the action today

!) and it was nothing short of incredible. It must have been scary for Schuh employees when they destroyed the door and burst in... They also looted 'Foot Locker'...

murphaph · 26-02-2006 12:21am

I expect that ginger tosser will appear on crimewatch or whatever it's called now. They really are skanger bastards aren't they. Did you hear the skangerette sayin somethin about a CD? Fcuking chavs the lot of 'em tbh. Imagine you came back to find your car being destroyed by those morons with IQs at room temperature!

When I looked at it I thought it was Nassau Street. Just around where I'd take a left to keep on towards Pearse Station.

JohnCleary · 26-02-2006 12:26am

LOL this reminds me of the 'school protests' a few years ago.

Remember when the secondary school teachers were protesting about 3-4 years ago over money or something? Well, all the school kids of galway went nuts (Including me)

There were protests, riots, etc... The funny thing is that we didnt even know what we were protesting for! Oh, and the fact that eventhough we were all dossing off school, the reason we were protesting was because teachers refused to teach us... Contradiction of the century or what :rolleyes:

I'm so glad that puberty/adolesence copped me on a bit

murphaph · 26-02-2006 12:27am

It's Nassau St. alright, camera looking eastbound.

How do you loot a shoe shop though? Aren't all the shoes on display L or R? You'd have to go into the storeroom, somehow find what you want, in your size. I'd say a load of those spas have two Left feet Nikes and Reeboks tonight, dopes.

Therein lies the problem my boy:)! A few single shoes lying around O'Connell street afterwards testified. However, there were also shirts/t-shirts (literally) being flung out the door as these people went into the shop and raided it. 'Foot Locker' was mere window-shopping by comparison.

Indeed it is Nassau Street - there was actually another car overturned on that street later on which I saw... :rolleyes: ... it was bizarre how the riot got that far, I honestly thought I had left it far behind me when I was up there.

Rb · 26-02-2006 12:33am

I was down in Dundrum Town Centre during the afternoon. It appeared that the riots had inspired some knacker kids there to go nuts for absolutely no reason and were fighting each other, jumping out infront of and on top of cars passing by, starting on other kids etc.
It was pathetic to watch.

cormie · 26-02-2006 12:36am

do you have these in a size 8? :rolleyes:

RTE said it'll cost €50,000 to clean up after them.

About 3 minutes from where I live. I'm suprised they went down so far as I wouldn't even describe my house as being in town.

Seriosuly though, what a bunch of scumbags. What the hell did damaging someones car do to help them?

drdre · 26-02-2006 12:56am

thats really disgraceful, that should not have happened hope they get done from that video.

Creamy Goodness · 26-02-2006 12:59am

yeh, and also the car was quite possible owned by a welsh man/woman over to watch the game tomorrow aswell, imagine having to sort this mess out cause some people don't know how to express their opinions in the right manner.

Hugh Hefner · 26-02-2006 12:59am

The part where the guy was kicking in the windscreen was described to me by a friend just after 3 O'clock today. Now I know he wasn't full of crap.

Heh, you can see The National Gallery in the background. I find that ironic.

"That riot was terrible, wasn't it?"

"You know, I think they were on the dole"

"Wha'? The f*ckin' c*nts!"

Reminds me of the type of pig-ignorant crap that appeared in the British tabloids last year, after the London bombings. - "Terrorists were CLAIMING BENEFITS!"

junkyard · 26-02-2006 1:21am

In the first place this march should never been left go ahead, it was only going to cause trouble from the start, secondly its no surprise that there were so many scumbags on hand to cause trouble, its their only job! We see this scum in the papers every day in and out of court costing us taxpayers a fortune in free legal aid and jail costs. They should make them clean up the mess the caused and pay for the damage by seizing any assets they have and deducting money from their social welfare payments, hit the f***ers where it hurts. There were even a few non nationals involved too and if so they should be sent back to where they came from, I'm not being racist here I'd be all for sending the other f***ers somewhere too if there was somewhere to send them.:mad:

Kazaanova · 26-02-2006 1:40am

I think they're actually beating up two people, one looks asian. Lowest scum of the human race when you have to join in with 12 other guys to beat up one person for no reason.

FAir play to those people for defending him. Some c*nt in a black hooded jacket ran around and kicked him from behind - it's a real pitty there isn't a clear shot of his face.

steveland? · 26-02-2006 1:43am

What I love is the fact that there were so many children "protesting" today...

I'll bet half of them have no idea what this was about...

Scumbag: "Ya Orange Bastards"
Someone with Sense: "Ehh... Do you know what that means?"
Scumbag "Yeh they're Orange Bastards"
SWS: "Yes but what does ya orange bastards mean?"
Scumbag "Uuuuugh... I dunno.... but it means we get to beat up Charlie Bird"
