Can Gardai ask you where you're going?

Ok so now you want to try and berate me because i stood up to your Garda bias. You know well what i'm on about and you are the one not making sense. Grow up.

Thanks for clearing that up for me.

dont expect any reasoned answers here, if you feel that the majorityof gardai are like most public servants and go to work and try and pass there day with as little hassle and effort as is humanly possible. then you will have the same people (mostly either gardai or their spouses) arguing that they are a highly intelligent, brave, effective hard working honest dilligent force and make claims that you are either a criminal or jealous and they will wheel out the old "you would be delighted to see them if you needed them (if you could find them and they could be arsed) only last week was talking to somebody in working in a local hotel who had to eject a group who where fighting. when they where outside they started to wreck the place. the gardai where rang 5 times in twenty minutes and where obviously annoyed at the nusiance and eventually told the staff not to ring again they where on their break in fairness to the gardai 2 of them landed a half an hour later when they had gone

I've certainly noticed that some posters like to make this kind of implication. It's hilarious. The discussion equivalent of saying, "Yeah? Well... you smell funny!".

tayto lover · 14-05-2011 09:09PM

I'd say both of you do smell funny with your biased posts.
E Kenny i spoke to 5 people last week who had great service from the gardai. Hows that son ?
At least give us some verifiable posts and not your usual makey-uppy posts. I still believe they caught you with your trousers down ha ha.

could anybody say they never broke the law. safe to say in this country you would have to be very unlucky to get caught

You couldn't, anyway. The laws of grammar, that is.

It's not difficult to use punctuation keys and the SHIFT key occasionally (you can even use the CAPS LOCK key if holding two keys down simultaneously is difficult for you).

Seriously, you would get a lot more respect around here if you could make the effort.

A change of username would help too, but that would cost you €5 . . .

i am always amazed about how many people give a fcuk about spelling punctuation grammar etc. surely if the point is valid or not is the important thing

Yes indeed but your posts are not valid because you are constantly generalizing.
Some of your criticisms might have truth in them but you accuse the entire Garda force so your points lose credence.

end a eknny · 15-05-2011 05:26PM

thats right i am generalising as i dont personally know them all but as the majority of them i have met are both dumb and useless and that is the perception i get about them from people all over the country and from all walks of life its safe to assume while they arent all useles dumbasses the majority unfortunatly are

There's a reason the word assume contains the word ass.

End a kenny you must be mixing in very dicey company because the people i mix with respect the laws of the country and those who enforce it. In fact it is the duty of all of us to help enforce these same laws.

while i respect most of the laws and abide by most of the laws (anybody who says they never broke any laws or liars) but i have no faith in those who are employed to enforce them. thats goes from the goverment through the judiciary prison services and gardai

Then i feel sorry for you going through life with such a chip. If i felt like that i would start a campaign to change things or i would emigrate. This country will never be perfect but i believe that the vast majority of people in any walk of life are decent people who do their best and this gives me great faith and confidence.

or i would emigrate

I did. I had enough of the gombeen republic that is Ireland. I was sick of all the cute hoorism.

Never looked back.

So you went to Bulgaria instead??..I think that's ironic.

Mr. Manager · 16-05-2011 10:50AM

One quick question here:

If I'm stopped by the Gardai and they ask me where I'm going, do I have to, by law, tell them?

It seems like such an invasion of privacy. I'm aware The Queen is coming and they want to take extra precautionary measures but in all seriousness, if you're going to have a go at her life, you're not going to tell the Gardai.

Who ever said I had an attitude? I've no problem answering them, I just think it's an invasion of my privacy is all.

If you are stopped within the cordoned area then yes you do.

The easiest option is to just say home/the shops/work. Be awkward about it and don't come back complaining that they asked you even more questions.

And this is by law? (not arguing what you're saying, just asking)

Can Gardai ask you where you're going?
