    If Paddy from Roscommon was living legally in the States and one night he got drunk and brutally attacked someone, would you disagree with him getting deported back to his country of origin?
    I wouldn't.
    And I wouldn't expect the American government to have to pay for his rehabilitation, maybe charge him in the States, put him on a plane and let him do his sentence in Castlrea.
    Unfortuately that's not the way things work though.
    And that gang of 'Africans' who done this should be ashamed and have really let down the majority of hard-working honest African immigrants.

    Racism: now apparently the same as its opposite. Do you have the slightest shred of evidence for your sweeping assumption that black people are more violent than white?

    Yes, with good reason.
    I've seen and experienced black violence, and they were caught in front of 90 witnesses and got probation.

    Forgot to mention... CC TV footage too.
    By the way, this was at 9am on a weekday in Dublin city centre in the height of rush hour.

    Irish scumbags are one thing, they have a right to be here.
    Immigrants were granted the privilege of being let into the country and this is how they repay the favour.

    Does anyone here think this situation is going to get any better ?
    Be realistic here.
    A load of young black people, who probably will be discriminated against for jobs. No work and lots of frustration, they're going to take their anger out on Irish people. This is going to get worse.

    Also nobody seems to have considered the demographic time-bomb whereby these lads will create an Irish rap genre. Beating up people is one thing but this would take the biscuit.

    I don't want to appear as some PC pinko-liberal but all this talk of "deporting" them, technically speaking if they were born here to immigrant parents, they have just as much a right to be here as you and me, legally speaking.

    Interesting. Why would I come to the rescue of a group of people who committed serious assaults? They inflicted extreme violence on others, therefore they deserve reprimand.
    I don't let their colour/ethnicity influence what I think of their behaviour/character - that's simple-minded. :)

    Certain groups in south America hada great method of dealing with undesireables back in the eighties, maybe its time to revisit this approach;)

    The gang are now expected to face a huge number of charges, including multiple serious assault charges, violent disorder, theft and production of an offensive weapon.

    So stamping on someone's head isn't attempted murder now? Good to know.

    It can't be any worse than the indigenous rap surely.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 764 ✭✭✭beagle001


    Just take a look at a city like Brussels or the suburbs of Paris the people are afraid to go into these areas as a result of African and Nth African street gangs.
    Centre of Brussels is a very dangerous place on a night out and the locals are petrified of the African gangs that roam the streets,knife violence is huge.
    It's a disgrace how they have let them take it over and if we do not do something here fast it will be just like that a complete dump .
    Pc brigade need to be disbanded and a tough regime brought in for all offenders not just immigrants,but immigrants caught creating violence should have all their families social welfare stopped,see how long it would take for them to reform then.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,759 ✭✭✭✭dlofnep


    Deport them all? Even if they are all Irish citizens? I do think it is fascinating that the terms "African" and "Irish" were used.

    Yes, even if they are Irish citizens. If they can't adhere to the law, then they do not deserve citizenship. It is a privilege, not a right.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,198 ✭✭✭du Maurier


    "We believe that what happened on the night was motivated by racism -- that is racism against white people.


    :pac:

    An important nugget of corroboration there!

    Same apply to the lads in Portlaois yeah? :)

    Fcuk it, let's put anyone ever convicted of anything on a boat to somewhere. Maybe Australia or something.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,914 ✭✭✭✭tbh


    What do you base that on ? ( Apart from a naive idea of equality )
    It's inherently racist to think that everyone is equal in every way.

    Africa is far from civilised, and some of these immigrants grew up in seriously messed up cultures and areas.

    what the hell are you talking about? "Africa" is far from civilised?! Do you know how big Africa is? Have you any clue about how many people live there?
    You'd be better off actually doing a bit of travelling, experiencing different cultures and coming up with your own informed opinion instead of just blindly swallowing the crap you read in tabloids.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,315 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    This is actually a case where I'd like to see America's ridiculous interpretation of laws being applied. I remember someone was convicted of assault with a deadly weapon. The deadly weapon was the shoe they were wearing. :pac:

    They know the difference between right n wrong in that country now, we need someplace innocent and sweet.

    A lot of people are throwing the racist card at some comments on here,let me put it this way if you get on a bus and one side is all white and the other is all black you are gonna sit on the white side does that make you racist?

    I would point to crime statistics. Up till about a year ago Ireland had approx 1/3 non national prison population, that would be up from roughly 0% about 20 yrs ago. In the UK and USA black people are, over the course of decade after decade, consistently far more heavily represented in prison populations per head of population.

    I'd stand pretending to be sending text massages the whole way


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,331 ✭✭✭RichieC


    Yes, with good reason.

    there's good reasons to be racist?

    it is illegal to discriminate on the grounds of age, sex, race, disability and sexual orientation in Ireland.

    Here's the thing - I'm all for immigration into Ireland. I unlike many like the diversity it brings to our cities. But what I will not tolerate is someone coming to Ireland, to engage in gang activity and hate crimes against the local population. Do that - and you lose any privilege you ever had of being here.

    So someone comes here at one day old and they don't have the same rights as if they'd been born here?

    These attacks are common knowledge to those of us who are working around the Templebar area.

    In fact around the time of the incident being reported here there were threads posted in relation to attacks and muggings by black African youths in the Templebar area which were promptly locked and/or deleted.

    But!.

    Yes there's a but, Templebar can be a violent area and in particular along the quays were there is a scarce Garda presence - (read non-existant) and attacks are carried out by lots of other gangs apart from the Africans.. Try hanging around Westmoreland Street & Aston Quay bus stops for a night and see the craic!... Its sickening.

    But African gangs aren't the worse around that area, I'd be more weiry of the Bally'er, Tallaght & Blanch scumbags hanging around their bus stops and outside the Spar's and Centra's which do a roaring off licence sale in the area.

    Mind the East European gangs too, vicious bastards altogether.

    Not going to Temple Bar for a while so!

    What you have there is evidence that someone black did something violent. Nothing whatsoever about trends or how they compare between different ethnicities. Nothing to justify racism.

    Drop me a PM if this ever becomes government policy please. Flights are expensive and there is a chap living down the road from me that could do with a box on the chops.

    Probably treat it as manslaughter at best here.
