    Jesus christ woman if you spent less time looking for abnomalies in the law and just paid your ****ing car tax the happier we would all be.

    I went to the store the other day. I was only in there for about 5mins, and when I came out there was a motorcycle cop writing a parking ticket. So I went up to him and said "C'mon buddy, how about giving a guy a break".

    He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. So I called him a stupid idiot. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having bald tyres!

    Then I got really angry at him. He finished the second ticket and put it on the car with the first. Then he started writing a third ticket.

    This went on for about 15mins. The more I abused him, the more tickets he wrote.

    I didn't care though. My car was parked around the corner.

    Calling a garda "officer" should be enough reason to arrest in my opinion.

    Rules for calling an ambulance.....
    1. Don't greet us with the words "you'll need a stretcher". If you're an accountant, would you expect me to come to your work and say "You'll need a calculator"? No... then **** off!
    2. If you call an ambulance, make some kind of effort to make yourself/your house visible. Turning on an outside light. Getting someone to stand outside to wave us down (see point 3). Giving the operator an idea of local landmarks. Saying "I'm in Newcastle" does NOT help.
    3. If you are aforementioned waving gimp. A simple sticking out of hand as if you were hailing a taxi will suffice. Performing actions that make you look like an epileptic mating with a windmill will not expedite our arrival. In fact we may just drive past for the hell of it.
    4. If you got yourself upstairs, you can sure as hell get yourself downstairs.
    5. Abdominal pain does not affect the motor function of the legs. You can still walk.
    6. If I came and sat in your house, pissed on the floor, threw up on myself and fell asleep on a chair, you may be put out. So don't do it in my ****ing ambulance.
    7. Don't even ****ing THINK about hitting me. I hit back. Harder. And I can kill you and leave no trace.
    8. Unless there is a very good reason, you go to the A&E of my choice. Good reasons include a: it's a skive b: it's a fun drive c: it's about lunchtime and the canteen is good d: the nurses are all sluts and e: because I'm a vindictive ******.
    9. Did I mention that if you do succeed in assaulting me, my friends the police will make sure you get nicked. And hurt. And will causally remark to some of their sources inside that you are a kiddie fiddler.
    10. Grannies pay attention: if you have chest pain, don't wait until the morning to call because "you didn't want to be a bother." Trust me, be a bother, that's what we are actually here for (this is probably the most serious point - if you have chest pain, call 000 for ****'s sake!
    11. If you've been drinking, don't lie about the amount. We're not ****ing cretins.
    12. If you've taken drugs, tell me. I can guess. And so can the purple elephant. Trust me, the majority of us have experienced unofficial medication in the past, so we know when we are being lied to.
    13. Girls: if your mate is lying on the ground vomiting after downing 15 shots of sambuca, do not tell us her drink has been spiked. Your friend looks like something the Japanese would kill for research. It would take something that would normally be used for anaesthetising bull elephants to bring her down, and nobody, not even a raving pervert, would shag it.
    14. Being above the 5th floor in a block of flats is a capital offence.
    15. If your first words to us are "you took your time" then they may also be your last.
    16. Living in the middle of nowhere has its advantages. It also means that it may take a bit of time to get to you. We drive big vans, not the starship enterprise.
    17. If you are a scrote, and you are cold and fancy going to the A&E for a bit of food and a cup of tea... tell me. Don't lie and say you have chest pain.
    18. We can spot a fake fit 5 miles off.
    19. If you have a very sick baby, an ambulance crew will appear behind you by magic.
    20. We do care, but the job does get to you. So please take the cynicism, sick humour and bad bastard temper with a pinch of salt. Especially if you call me out at 5 minutes before shift end.;)

    EDIT: A quick Google on the guy (Deputy Paul Schene) who annihilated the 15-year-old girl in the video reveals that he lost his job for this, and rightly so. Looks like a criminal case resulted in a hung jury so they're going again at it.

    Yes I think you're probably right. Bit of eh dialogue would not be unusual in those circumstances.

    And then...holy sheeeet ! That's shocking bad.

    Traffic cop arrested by his own colleagues over parking dispute.



    A traffic officer ended up arrested outside his own home by a squad of three of his colleagues… who had swooped on the address after a neighbour complained about nothing more than the way his car was parked.

    Unfortunately for traffic cop Roderick

    Hello all.

    Just wondering, is it common for the Gardai to train in housing estates? The house next door to me is boarded up, it's a corporation house, and has been boarded up for about 10 months now still with the previous tenants contents inside (classy area obv).

    This afternoon, a load of (unmarked) cars and plain clothes guys (maybe 15/20) arrived and were in there for hours. I was being nosy going out and asked one them was there anything to be concerned about, he said no, that they were training. That they had "planted" stuff in the house and were training the "rookies" how to "case a joint". (Anything with " around it is my own CSI gained terminology :D).

    But I just wondered was I basically being told to mind my own. They said "Yeah, XXX left 10 months ago didn't he?", so they knew his name, which I would have thought unnecessary if they were just using the house for a training exercise.

    Anyhoo just thought I would ask here to see if it sounds normal, or can I expect them in the morning to start digging the garden :eek:.

    All the neighbours are a bit freaked.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,392 ✭✭✭TequilaMockingBird


    Meant to say, a few weeks ago, a cherry picker arrived next door. I said to bloke on it, "er, is everything alright?", he said the Corporation asked him to check the roofs (sp) of boarded up houses (quite a few here). This sounds a bit far-fetched to me - the Corporation appear to be broke and it is difficult to get anything repaired, never mind checking new roofs.

    Should I ask in Conspiracy Theories instead? :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,392 ✭✭✭TequilaMockingBird


    No replies. I seeee.

    Very long arm of the law: Driver stopped twice by same PC... 12,000 miles apart


    It was a case of parallel lives when policeman Andy Flitton booked a speeding driver in New Zealand.
    Two years earlier, Constable Flitton had stopped the same motorist – 12,000 miles away in England.
    The two men had both emigrated and their paths had crossed once again.

    Constable Flitton said that as he wrote out the ticket on a road near Christchurch, the driver asked if he had worked in London and then if he had operated a laser gun on the A5.
    'I thought it was you,’ said the man, who has not been named. ‘You gave me my last speeding ticket there two years ago.'
    Constable Flitton said he could only laugh when the man he had booked recognised him as the officer who had ticketed him in Britain two years earlier.
    The driver, who produced British and South African licences, told Constable Flitton that he had just emigrated from England, where he had lived for 12 years.
    It was while he was writing out the speeding ticket in his car that Constable Flitton saw the driver, who has not been identified, approaching him with a smile.

    Constable Flitton had been an officer with the Metropolitan Police for 26 years before emigrating to the south island of New Zealand.
    'At first, I hadn't recognised him, but the minute he said it I remembered the whole thing. We both just had a laugh,' the police officer told the New Zealand Herald.
    The driver told the policeman that he had been in New Zealand for less than two weeks and was still looking for somewhere to live.
    The policeman and the motorist discussed the odds of meeting each other again the same way.
    'We must have some sort of connection,' said Constable Flitton.
    'He only ever broke the law twice and both times I was the one to give him a ticket.
    'It cost him £60 over there and $120 (£58) over here, so it wasn't cheap.
    'It just shows what a small world it really is.'

    One from the silly season
    Drink driver caught in Box Hill

    Monday, 27 December 2010 00:53

    Members of the Nunawading Highway Patrol intercepted a driver with a blood alcohol reading of .278.

    Police said they were stationary in Whitehorse Road Box Hill about 8.25pm last night when a car drove past.

    Police attention was drawn to the vehicle as the driver was tooting his horn and waving at police.

    The 30-year-old male driver was pulled over and breath tested.

    The man had his licence withdrawn immediately and will face court at a later date in relation to the matter.

    When ask why he was driving like that the man told police he was unaware he was driving a car.
