What could I have done to you that would warrant such a response from a moderater. Certainly makes me think that this is somehow personal and nothing to do with my post. I am of course open to correction on that

You have done nothing to me, however, it is my opinion that you would not be suited to being a member of An Garda Síochána going by all your previous posts. I do not believe I in anyway insulted you. If you believe I did, feel free to report the post.

Some Mules don't like to see reserves who carry Garda identification the same as them driving 2013 bmws and lexus and living in big houses especially ones they get for free from their companies. Vast majority of mules couldn't give a ****e. Evidently he is in the minority begruding category. Sad especially for a mod on here. You didn't deserve that comment. It would only come from begrudgers imo. (Typing this post from a five star hotel restaurant in New York which I will put on company credit card).

I work with a great unit and have never heard anyone whinging and moaning about what type of car or house each other's have. Have had them to mine during the summer for barbecues and visa versa and the green eyed monster has never risen it ugly head. Have to count my blessings that I work in a station where anyone who puts in the work is appreciated

Irish Independent this morning GARDA RESERVE Meanwhile, it emerged yesterday that members of the Garda Reserve now have the power to issue fixed charge penalty notices and serve summonses. It is one of a range of new measures introduced to the Reserve following an internal review carried out by Garda Commissioner Martin Callinan. Its powers and functions have been extended to such areas as domestic violence, child protection, conflict resolution and garda policy on bullying and harassment.Reserve members have also been given powers under the Public Order Acts in relation to the seizure of vehicles and are being issued with Tetra radios when going on duty. But Mr Shatter said yesterday it was not intended to further extend their powers.
