    I see nothing which must be right for some welfare spongers but then, you'll find lazy people everywhere.

    Only in Ireland can you see welfare suckers with a greater standard of living than those on minimum wage.

    Only in Ireland will you find lovely wide flat roads with a speed limit of 80kph and cliffside roads with no railings with 100kph limits.

    Only in Ireland is it impossible (or so say the majority) to have fun without alcohol.

    Only in Ireland can it rain for 6 days a week and still have "drought" during the summer.

    Only is Ireland is it a recognised pastime to attend funerals.

    Only in Ireland do people annoyingly use the phrase "Only in Ireland" all the time.

    Only on boards can I ignore blatant generalisations.

    The youtube comments are hilarious though.

    This is true, but in fairness, I reckon in the states this would have ended differently!! (The UK have the same stupid health and safety rules as us though)

    We can't have that!

    Clear the fuggin' roads lads, they're late for their "entitlements"!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,329 ✭✭✭Mr Simpson

    I think they held back when it was getting too dangerous, and they realised there was 2 of them and about 30 travellers!!

    give a guess how many Gardai were assigned to the Anglo Irish Bank investigation?....

    Answer:.... 11

    The worst financial scandal in Irish history and perhaps even in the entire history of Europe is being investigated by a smaller team than most countries would assign to investigate a rural post-office robbery. Is it any wonder that Anglo staff have failed to assist the investigation and in some cases deliberately obstructed it?


    Meanwhile we have a couple of squad cars chasing 2 horses down the road


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,463 ✭✭✭CruelCoin


    Meh,

    People wanted loans they couldn't afford then go all ABLOO BLOO BLOO WAAAAHHHH when it goes tits up.

    Way i see it, they paid what they owed, one way or another.

    Grand, sure let them kill themselves and/or others so. Clearly the lack of skilled investigators on the Anglo case means that Travellers should be allowed do as they please.

    Don't the gards have pepper spray?

    Are you saying they shouldn't be on the road trying to stop them?

    What those eejits were doing was cruel and completely dangerous, there could have been a fatal collision because of their stupid little game.

    Often see these big men on Youtube challenging their enemies to a horse race. Fools..

    I prefer when they have a bare knuckle fight myself, at least it's entertaining and they only damage themselves.

    You expect them to jump onto the horse and pepper spray them?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,626 ✭✭✭✭My name is URL


    Nothing but pure scum buckets. I know it's part of their 'culture' and all that, but why can't they practice it in a safer and less inconveniencing way? They could probably have a stretch of road closed if they went about organizing it properly.
