Also, the Dublin city sheriff is the central sheriff's office of the county and all evictions are primarily actioned from this office, and directed to their more local offices. Regarding the Kelly family, we were very moved to see their plight, the violence used against pensioners by mercenaries of this state. On a final note, although it is easy to criticize our actions, be minded at all times that we are caring and empathetic folk who are following in the footsteps of our forefathers and the lessons from our history, to resist attacks on our community. Solidarity brothers and sisters.

http://www.garda.ie Declaration Values wrote: http://www.garda.ie/Documents/User/declarationvalues.pdf An Garda Síochána is committed to upholding and promoting the rule of law which is the basis for all genuine democracies. Complying with the rule of law means that everyone is equal before the law and the law applies equally to everyone, regardless of their station, position or power. It is an imperative of public policing that Gardaí must always comply with the rule of law and be guided by its provisions in their professional practice. There can be no deviation from this principle and no justification ever for acting illegally. Gardaí who attempt to achieve policing objectives by breaking the law or violating human rights, act illegally and unprofessionally and add to criminality in society. Such behaviour undermines the very purpose of public policing and diminishes the legitimacy of An Garda Síochána in society. An Garda Síochána has a core role in the administration of criminal justice in Ireland. In that context, a central function of police work is the investigation of incidents and events where the law may have been breached or the rights of members of the community may have been infringed. The office of Garda confers significant power and authority to limit the freedoms and infringe the rights of members of the community in certain circumstances. Such power and authority are entrusted to Gardaí by the Oireachtas on behalf of the community for the public good. Our public service mandate dictates that probity and integrity must be the hallmarks of our behaviours. Therefore, it is an abuse of our public role or position to engage in behaviour, whether internally or externally, which is motivated by personal gain or the gain of others. The abuse of our office or role and its associated powers and authority for vindictive reasons or unlawful purposes seriously damages the legitimacy of public policing and represents a grave abuse of public trust.

(2) The words “before God” may be omitted from the declaration at the request of the declarant.

Now is the time for people to try and learn how not to live in modern houses and learn how to survive in the wild with nature. That would be my advice to this old couple is to try and learn how to get over this and wait out the storm in the countryside with nature and learn to survive.

I see blatant abuse by members of the Guards deliberately obstructing and allowing continued harassment and abuse by the Baliff of the two individuals. I hope some one call the Garda Ombudsmen and identify that member of the Gardaí those who obstructed that man and to report them for failing to uphold their Oath as Peace officers. For Gardaí to act as private bailiffs for these banks, I find it very repulsive. They are supposed to keep and uphold their Oath defend the peace and common Law at all times. They are not paid to be Sheriffs under Sheriffs Law. They are not paid nor sworn an oath to uphold court orders signed by sheriff under Sheriff Law. Sheriffs are not Judges under Common Law. Baliffs & Sheriffs are bound by common Law are not allow to commit criminal damage and trespass which breach Rule of Law to other people homes, unfortunately they do breach Rule of Law. For the Gardaí to do nothing and uphold Sheriff law while temporary abandoning their oath to Common Law is sickening, especially common Law is superior to Sheriff law.

She breach her Oath and Rule of Law. Breach of the Peace is defined here:http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/justice/criminal_law/criminal_offences/public_order_offenses_in_ireland.html I could not see any breach of the peace in the Video, however I did see the officer enter the property followed the camera woman, no matter how unpleasant or nuts she (camera Woman) is, yet I see the Female officer falsely arresting under pretense of Breach of the Peace in her home , the Female Gardaí aided by other officers who breach their duty to uphold Rule of Law and breach of their Oath. These Gardaí have undermined the Garda Síochána as define by their own guidelines and by rule of Law. They aided in the eviction at the gain of others, carrying out the work of the Baliffs & Sheriffs
