    You really think the gardai are the cause of the problems at the recent protests ! I dont believe you really think that.

    That Garda was outta control yesterday, the other gardaí did a great job, people where backing up and telling him to calm down but he wouldnt have it, he inflamed the situation

    Protesters storming the gate inflamed the situation, why couldn't they protest outside?

    hondasam, anonoboy and fedor, are ye gardai by any chance?

    Not gaurds, just your typical moaners that want somebody else to something about the country and when somebody does something about it then they belittle your effords. Wouldn't worry about them - just go and protest so that the goverment knows people arent happy.

    You're dead right.

    That'll solve it all.

    We'll be debt free too by the time you get home from your Mars bar chucking.

    What are you on about? Where did I belittle anybody's efforts about anything?

    You have no idea about me and what I do buddy. The only thing I'm belittling here is Ik09's pathetic debating skills.

    They should have and i think that was the plan you can hear people shouting "don't, don't" when they were at the gates but there will always be a few idiots in a group. Peoples emotions are running high and some idiots got over zealous

    Nope. I just think it's funny the way your complaints were at first about all the Gardai, then it was about this one Garda, then it was about Gardai drinking your tea and not getting the boys in the crime lab to run DNA analysis on fibres found in your car when someone broke in to it.



    I didnt see any other garda try to stop the garda that had gone berserk. Ok il accept your point that it was firstly about all gardai and it has now seemed to change to one garda, but it was similar to the unnecessary force used when an middle aged man stood infront of the ministers car. If you call refusing to move when a garda tells you to a "violent" protest then we might aswell just stop the conversation here.

    Where did you see me talking about that man? Nowhere. Thanks for trying to put words in my mouth.

    Are you still claiming that the guys rushing the gates were engaged in a peaceful protest?

    And what exactly do you think there intentions were when they got inside?

    To sit down and have a "peaceful" chat with some politicians?

    It was hardly violent. And "rushing" is taking the piss. It was like the exodus from a bingo hall.

    I didn't say it was violent. But they can't claim they were being peaceful either.

    Perhaps rush is too strong a word alright.

    As above. O'Snodaigh was with them, so it was hardly going to end in violence. Apart from the one Garda, who evidently went berserk.

    Hello,

    I am disgusted by the level of disrespect shown by the gardai to Irish civilians during protests.

    They were well able to catch a cold when it was theyre wages that would be cut
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0S_TT5GAvo&feature=player_embedded

    I felt like ripping the head off this scumbag garda


    Those rioters could have been shot.. In most other countries they would have been.

    Fair play to AGS.

    Can I ask a question: If you're on the ground of government buildings without permission, does that count as trespassing?

    They had plenty of time to make a dash for the building which they didn't. I don't even think they had an intention of going in the first place. Since the gate was open, they just made there way in. Once inside the gate, it looked like they didn't know where to go so just stopped there.

    O'Snodaigh did look fairly in control of things alright, didnt he?;)

    What always makes me smirk is the way these things turn out.


    " A few hotheads got out of control"

    Remember the last protest to Leinster House.. what was the result?

    "A few hotheads got out of control"

    same old, same old,,, what is needed is that the ringleaders with the Shinner placards are isolated and the ringleaders who as I saw from the vid, had O'Snodaigh in full voice, should have been wearing full upper and lower dentures today and on a diet of soup for a week or two.


    That's what i would have ensured if i was one of those cops being abused and taken advantage of.

    But when they were ordered to leave why didn't they do that?
