Garda Oath

danger mouse · 02-07-2013 01:41AM #1

I just got sent this video by a friend. The guy in it is asking some Garda do they know their Oath of Office. The Reply from the members involved is shocking to say the lest.

Im a very big advocate of people knowing their rights regarding the law of Ireland and feel that as irish people we should understand irish law a lot better than we do already, but this guy asks what looks like senior Garda about their oath of office and the response is shocking to say the lest. I know it appears the guy is under the influence of drink but the response of these Garda is shocking and un-educated to say the lest.

The only shocking thing about this whole thing is that i watched it in its entirety. I wouldn't deal with that spanner either feel like 2 minutes of my life have been wasted.... Thanks op

What's shocking?? the guard cant even understand what fella is shouting and has to ask him repeatedly to repeat it.

The morons that post videos like these only portray themselves in a bad light, I cant see any wrong doing by the guards.

endacl · 02-07-2013 01:52AM

Dey doan even no dere oan oats!

Looked to me like a guard doing his best to ignore a bell end who was doing his best to piss off a guard.

Calm guard - 1
Bell end - 0

I don't see the problem here. The guy with the camera seems to be acting the eejit to me, but that's it.

The Backwards Man · 02-07-2013 01:56AM

If that lad keeps talking about oats like that won't be long til he's doing porridge.

Karl Stein · 02-07-2013 01:57AM

Of Oats and Porridge.

carzony · 02-07-2013 01:57AM

To many of these **** garda utube vids lately.. They really can't do anything without getting filmed :rolleyes:

Jester252 · 02-07-2013 01:57AM

Now its opportunities for quips like that make these threads worthwhile!

Got any more vids OP?

Jester252 · 02-07-2013 02:06AM

I also love how he is cursing at the guards and then claims he broke not laws. Fair play to the guy in the longford jearsy and the guards for dealing with the matter with a fool yelling his head off.

mcmoustache · 02-07-2013 02:07AM

I haven't seen the video nor have I properly read the op but is this some freeman shíte?

danger mouse · 02-07-2013 02:07AM

Sorry I cant see the funny side of all this. It is pretty sad that some one asks Police if they're acting under their Oath and they don't even know what the person is talking about.

Its pseudo legal jibberish most scummers try to use to confuse Gardai. They work of some misinterpretation of old style law crap thats not relevant to anything today to try and argue people cannot be held legally responsible for anything.

What is shocking about it? Some absolute dope, who I would imagine has nothing to do with the situation, ranting his head off at Guards.
Maybe if he could speak proper english and pronounce his words they would have undertsood him. even at that they should have still ignored the tosser.

You go roaring at a Guard on the street about breakfast cereal and see what reaction you get!

So someone asking a police officer of the Irish state if they are acting under irish law and confirm that, is bull****, How is that wasting anyones time? accountability of all state organisations is surely the way to go?

Be it the guards or the pizza delivery guy they don't engage with the drunken fool yelling his his head off who has nothing to do with the situation

Horse dealers trying to buy oats.

Gladly.

First of all, I must explain that I'm hammered because I'm off on holidays in the afternoon. Just in case I ramble or start sentences with words that don't go there.

Anyway, the freeman shíte mentioned earlier refers to people who, during interactions with enforcers of the the law, think that they are beyond their (the enforcers) jurisdiction. They often claim that they "don't consent" or "don't stand under" or even recognise that the enforcers (AGS) have power over them.

You'll often hear them ask AGS for their oath or ask to see his hat because an arrest, while legal, can only be "lawful" if the Gárda is wearing his hat correctly... or so they believe.

They are grade A loons and their ideas have become fashionable over the last 4 years. The CT and Legal Discussion forum have loads of material on them. I'd recommend reading more here on boards.

Thank God he wasn't wearing a GAA jersey.

Or was he?

Do you mean oath or do you mean reading you your rights?? Why did the cops come around?

MooShop · 02-07-2013 02:43AM

No wonder the Gards didn't reply.

When I started watching that video, which I expected to be some Freeman/Common Law BS, I couldn't understand what the guy was spouting either.

I was full sure he was saying "Are you on your own?" The Garda repeatedly asked him to repeat himself and duly ignored the bumbling idiot as not to inflame the situation. Later on in the video, he asks the Garda "Are you on your yoath?"

However, at no point OP do I hear the Garda state that he doesn't know his oath. He just ignored a drunken idiot that was trying to cause trouble and dealt with the member of that group who was willing to co-operate and talk to the Gardai without shouting abuse at them.
