Should we be worried?, it includes such classics as including secret detention hearings and detention on the unsupported word of a single Guard.

I know why there trying to bringing it in but some of it seems very suspect, have they taken a leaf out of the CIA handbook on this one?

PirateShampoo · 30-06-2009 04:24PM

Uve nothing to worry about if ur a model citizen.

About time they started cracking down hard on the scum.

Executive Steve · 30-06-2009 04:25PM

Yes we should be extremely worried.

And what better way to throw people off the scent than by pretending to be waiting for him........

........ muuuhhahaaaahaaaaaaaahhaawwaaahhaaaaaaa!!!!!

Might have just given it away there come to think of it.

*speaks into cuff* "Get me out of here"

Great, more rules and laws but no extra bodies to enforce them or prisons to house the results.
The only worrying thing is the fact that Ahern is still in charge of the justice brief...

No it's the one aimed at taking your civil rights away and detaining you on a hunch. 2 guys betting on frog jumping could be considerd orgnaised crime if they didn't have a gambling licence.

Was that not always the case? I don't think I've ever seen anyone walk around a town openly toking on a joint regardless of garda presence

You don't need to be toking or skinning up in front of a Garda Presence to be arrested. They can now watch you on sophisticated surveillance CCTV and follow it up. :eek:

Does anyone else think that if we could hear Run_to_da_Hills reading his posts aloud his voice would change from a little girls into a gruff Military voice halfway through?

"Sincerely,

I'm not worried. I make a point of not skinning up in front of CCTV cameras anyway because when I wanna get high I get oh so shy.

It is disgraceful though - what will they do next, make hash illegal?! :mad:

Run_to_da_hills · 30-06-2009 06:31PM

The old expression "three is a crowd" can now be changed to "Three is a criminal gang" when this bill is passed.

Wertz · 30-06-2009 06:40PM

I suppose it's better than "Three is a terrorist sleeper cell"

It will be ammended to this when the EU Parlament takes over.

Crawl out of your hole and live a little will you? Your mind is distorted by the media etc etc...

RonMexico · 30-06-2009 06:44PM

Absolutely delighted and even more delighted to see that it pissed off The Irish Council for Civil Liberties. Bunch of twats.

Local-womanizer · 30-06-2009 06:50PM

It would make that much of a difference to the normal citizen.The Gardai are not going to waste their time pulling you up on every little thing you do wrong.

Jesus, even when we agree on stuff i still can't help but wish you'd just go away.

Also "no difference to the normal citizen", what a load of asinine bollocks.

I think we should be very worried ...McBrearty case, anyone?

Wertz · 30-06-2009 07:02PM

Yeah you're potentially well f*cked if a guard or group of guards take a personal dislike to you for some reason. At least when it was special criminal court for subversives, it was the word of a senior garda (super intendent?)...now any fresh faced rookie out of Templemore can convict you, in theory.

No-one is saying we don't have a substantial organised crime problem in this country but legislation like this is thin end of the wedge stuff...
