A van + a group of people concerned with degeneracy + some "equipment" = swift justice

Much more preferable to the following equation,

Group of Scum + beer/drugs + no morals = assault/death of innocent person = slap on the wrist = two fingers to the justice system

Fair play to him. What he did was terrible but it was most likely a mistake, and I can't help but feel sorry for him as well. Whatever you do in a row, you don't stamp someone's head when they're down.

Fair play to him ??? are you for real?You feel sorry for him? A KILLER??
a young man was killed .ONE person from the pack who killed the guy walked into clontarf station with his father ,They are still looking for another attacker.
It's also been rreported that the guy who was killed ,was killed because his atackers thought he was gay .Now if that is true ,it is truely appalling .
Killed for being gay !!!

Scum copulation leads to scum unemployed single mothers leads to your taxes paying for the upkeep of the kid! That kid will then most likely grow up in a high crime area, become part of a "pack" of scumbags who kick to death someone on the ground outside a club like Barcode!!

I'm not congratulating him for killing someone; like I said, I think what he did was appalling. I'm saying he did the right thing by coming forward so that the bereaved family can get some sort of closure sooner. And yes, in a way I feel sorry for him. He might be a thug but I doubt he's a cold-hearted killer and he now has to live with what he did for the rest of his life, which is effectively ruined. Please leave the sensationalism to the tabloids.

WindSock · 15-10-2009 11:40AM

I never once went in there and I don't ever intend to. Let the scumbags and the kids have their place to go to, otherwise they will be mixing with everyone else and drinking on the streets.

papajimsmooth · 15-10-2009 11:43AM

They have arcade games there as well. Ms pacman is the business when your drunk.

PEOPLE WANNA CLOSE THIS PLACE DOWN???????

Seriously though, I can never understand the whole 'its crap / full of youngsters' attitude.

If you don't fit into the age group the place caters for, don't go.

I went a few times a good few years ago, but haven't been in donkeys, and certainly don't intend on going.

Let the youngsters who want to go, go. End of.

Jaysus, if every place that had a bit of noise outside, or the odd fight got closed, there'd be very few places left open in Dublin.

Any normal person would suffer greatly having to live with something like this for the rest of their life. However, the vast majority of people that do this type of thing are not "normal". I have seen such people, on many occasion, smirking in court, laughing when the details of their crime are read out, and laughing when their pathetic sentence is read out. All with total disregard to the victims family who are watching it all. Then to top it all off they leave court and give the camera's ( and the people of Ireland) the customary two fingers!

I firmly believe these people are a sub-species. Their brains just don't operate in the same manner as normal people. They have no sense of guilt, shame, or remorse. In fact many of them boast about their crimes, and wear their convictions as a badge of pride.

Do you know the killer? Do you know if he he has a history of violence, does he have any previous convictions, or was it just a rush of blood to the head? Please leave your conjecture at the door until further details emerge.

Great argument.:rolleyes: I suppose violent crime is equally prevalent in all areas regardless of upbringing?? I love the way people always resurrect this argument when defending violence almost certain classes. The guys responsible for what happened in Annabel's were scum, no doubt but statistically speaking, being born in certain areas will increase the chances of engaging in violent crime, so lets not blow smoke over the issue.

Its not just this one case. There have been numerous warning signs with Barcode. There serious assaults there nearly every week. Guards have even been assaulted there.There has even been a number of rape reports! Now of course these things happen everywhere, but Barcode has FAR more than its far share of trouble!

It doesn't matter who you are. No rush of blood to the head is an excuse for what he did!:mad:

homerjay2005 · 15-10-2009 11:56AM

just to summarise please, can the anti bar code people sum up,, in a few sentances, what is so bad about the place, and what makes it worse than any other large club in ireland?

To quote myself.

techdiver wrote: »

Not to mention the scum bouncers that think it is ok to beat customers up, and yes I am a witness to it.

A company I used to work for had a social day in Westwood and then had drinks there afterwards. When it came to closing time the ultra zealous bouncers physically manhandled everyone back in doors to exit another route. When some colleagues of mine objected to this the bouncers jumped on them and one clearly punched him in the face. We reported this to the Gardai and the head of security. We had sober witnesses too, but as is per usual nothing happened.

I wasn't speaking specifically about this killer. I was making a statement about the dozens of scum bags that behave in this manner every week in our courts.

Rush of blood or no rush of blood, a normal person would not be part of a group that chase one guy down and them stamp on his head until they killed him. Thats animal behaviour, and regardless of their "history" they should be punished accordingly

Handsome Bob · 15-10-2009 12:01PM

I have a feeling that it won't be closing down in the forseeable future. It's apparently been on its' last legs for years, yet it is still open.

I hate the place to be honest. Once you go past midnight they are charging you €6 a pop for a pint. The place is mostly full of jailbait, **** knows how they get in because they are easy to spot, just keep an eye out for the group of girls who are having a fit of giggles or who are sniggering at people walking by.

The mind boggles as to how it is still open.

We have already acknowledged that these things happen. I think all the above cases are scum. That does not change my belief that a sub-species of scum are holding our city hostage. You can't walk down one street in Dublin City without encountering scum asking for "bus fare" or shouting abuse at tourists or anyone they see as "different". These tracksuit wearing wasters are common in Ireland and indeed in the UK. However, not so much in Paris or the rest of Europe for that matter. Why?? Because are justice system like Britains, is more concerned with the "human rights" of the criminals than the rights of the victims!!

Whats wrong with the aforementioned areas that they add to the tension?

Always went as a kid on a Thursday, always had a great night.

Extortionate prices after midnight.
Jailbait being the majority demograph in the place.
Metrosexuals actually having the balls to smirk at people walking past them.
Cocaine fuelled nutters.
The amount of violence in the place, one of my mates got his nose broken in the toilets because some scumbag mistaked him for someone else.

One thing I will say about the place is that it has improved the quality of their bouncers. The ***** that used to be on the door 3/4 years ago, jesus wept.

BigDuffman · 15-10-2009 12:36PM

I live in the area (so call it local knowledge) and have had enough of the place, you have to que up for a fight after queuing for your jacket. I used to go the odd time years ago, the Scantily clad wimminz (Arbour hill bait) mean nothing considering the resulting bloodbath that ensues on a regular basis.

There is a garda car permanently outside the place on the weekends.

Call it conjecture or whatever you want, but that dirt bag was dragged into the station by his father who was disgusted by this filthbags actions. Not by him being a remorseful soul.

This is an ongoing theme, as gangs (who in a lot of cases were never actually in the club) wait outside to prey on the ossified youngsters stumbling round outside. A lot of assaults happen on the way up towards Hillbillys etc. not necessarily in / outside the club.

How is Barcode Fairview still open???
