So the Gardai, have you lost all respect for the tits.

Jimmy Garlic · 04-03-2011 04:58AM #1

I have. I lost all respect when they put vast amounts of energy and time into being the proxy tax collectors. Any old excuse will do. I have no respect for them anymore, whatsoever. What little respect I had for them has gone out the window. Why can't they go away and fight some real crime instead of acting as money grubbing bailiffs for the IMF?.

Talk to a gardai ... he is alright.
Talk to a bunch of them ... they're scumbags.

04-03-2011 05:17AM

When did they become bailiffs?

Its a club, a fraternity you could say. They have a certain way to act around each other. An elitist mindset. They think they are important.

I am sure people with the same mindset policed the peasants back in feudal times. Nothing changes really.

I'm not a Gaurd, but I could never lose respect for tits.

I've genuinely got no idea.. What have they done? Check my location to see why I'm curious.

You're right Jimmy there really is a lot of sado's in the gardai, it's getting worse every year.

Glad you got the obligatory irrelevant IMF reference into your rant OP.

Let me guess, you broke the law and you got caught?

Why is it that criminals always insist that the law they broke isn't really serious?

I read the title as 'So gardai, have you lost all respect for the tits?'. Me - 'Surely they haven't!'

If I had a pair I could do tit jobs. But, that is not the point. Irish sheriffs are beyond tit jobs.

Acts are the law of the sea, not the law of the land, which is common law (cause no harm, no loss and no fraud).

People have accepted a consensus reality in regard to legislation, which is seperate from law.

The Guards are supposed to enforce the law ie common law, the law of the land, and not enforce, or act as agents for the state in regard to commercial law (maritime law).

In short, Guards are supposed to keep the peace.

Edit; Maritime jurisdiction applies here since the High Court of Admiralty Act of 1859, and the Judicatare Act of 1877, when common law crimes were brought into the commercial courts.

A statute, according to Blacks Law dictionary, is...

a rule created by a representative governing body of a society designed to create common goals, which carries the force of law by the consent of the governed.

By contracting with the state, you consent to be governed by these statutes. They are not law.

To put it in maritime terms, the state contracts you by creating a legal fiction, initially via your birth certificate, the equivalent of press-ganging you. You are now a sailor, governed by the statutes.

If you break the contract, you can be hauled in to the dock and thrown in the brig.

its ok. after that, we have no respect for you either.

W.Shakes-Beer · 04-03-2011 09:55AM

Blah de blah no respect blah....

But who is the first person you would call (not chuck Norris or ghostbusters) if your house was burgled or your car robbed.

People complain about them but without them there'd be mayhem.

In my experience there are good and bad, like everything really.

TanG411 · 04-03-2011 10:00AM

The Gardaí doing the tax collecting are obviously assigned to do that role, I imagine. They are probably young guards.
As for fighting 'real crime' -- as avoiding tax is a crime as well -- it takes more than just the guards. It takes detectives and a load of inside work to solve a case. Experienced guards do this.

MagicSean · 04-03-2011 10:09AM

Stupid thread. Revenue agents collect taxes not gardai. Op probably just got caught for having no car tax. Even Garda cars have to be taxed.

chicken fingers · 04-03-2011 10:15AM

You must always respect the tits!

04-03-2011 10:21AM

The Celtic Tiger was a bad time for the AGS, loads and loads of really sh1t candidates got in. Pity they are not doing some serious recruiting now as they could take their pick from loads of good candidates. No offence to the folks who are good Gardai and got in during the boom but loads of bottom of the barrel people got in too.

pragmatic1 · 04-03-2011 10:23AM

I respect the fact that their job can be very difficult. But to be honest I've had nothing but bad experiences with the lot of them. Theres also an authoritarian attitude that I've found many gardai have, which I have a strong aversion to.

I thought from the thread title, the OP's wife/partner tried to get out of a ticket by flashing her tits and it didn't work.
Thread disappoints.

If my house was burgled I don't know if they're be any point in calling them, based on many friends exepriences they going do f**k all. There isn't peace in this country because the gardai are holding back the savages at the gates. This country is peaceful because the overwhelming majority of its citizens are decent law abiding people. We appoint the gardai to maintain this peace. The problem is when laws become a cash cow for the government then a certain amount of hypocrisy begins to creep into their role.
