He brings his small kids for a walk there and nearly loses them to the waves...even though warnings are out for the last fortnight to be careful and stay away...

What sort of idiot is he? Could he not be charged with child endangerment?

I regularly watch idiot parents on our beaches ignore warnings about sand dune collapse lift the barrier tape and send their kids up the dunes to play.
The Darwin Awards are the only beneficeries (hows that spelt?)

Is there a crime of child endangerment? There probably should be.

If only you could prosecute people for stupidity.

It's the same anytime there's a weather warning. There's always someone who will still decide to go sailing, mountaineering, take the kids for a walk on the beach or the dog for a walk down the pier. Then other people have to put their lives at risk to to go out and rescue them.

They should call it dog tax. There is no qualification to prove you're a good dog owner either.

Gobsh1t3ry of the highest order, if you endangered livestock like that youd be done for it. The Indo doesnt show it but theres a great pic on the Irish Sun website of a huge man, a worker from the harbour, telling him what he thinks of him. I do hope he cr@pped himself but it was a pity the kids had to hear it.

However his other foul almost as bad, is the wearing of the flat cap backwards. Only Samuel L Jackson on this planet can pull that one off, and sir, you aint no Samuel L Jackson.

Plazaman

Don't worry, as he is front page of a lot of the papers todays, he'll get quite the bollícking from his wife, a harsh enough sentence I'm sure.

He's not the only dope in that report. What the hell was THIS woman thinking driving her car into the flood, risking a Gardas life so she can be pulled out the stupid woman. "Distressed driver" my hole, she wasn't distressed when she said, oh look a lake, I'll drive into it.

I remember during the big freeze, a lake near me was frozen (Lough Gur in Co Limerick, for those that know it) and there were people out on the ice in the middle of the lake pushing a small child in a buggy. Probably the most retarded thing I'v ever seen.

Stupid people think danger warnings just add to the excitement!

The big guy looks intimidating alright but I'd say he's going to face worse at home. If I was those kids mother I'd go ballistic seeing those pics.

The dad (or uncle or whatever) is no kid either, definitely old enough to know better with all that grey hair.

The Narrator

Thankfully they were alright.
This will be a strong life lessen for the father (and hopefully other likewise gobshytes).

wow..that pic of the worker "speaking to him". The sun has some good ones alright http://www.thesun.ie/irishsol/homepage/news/5421477/Floody-moron-Toddlers-close-call-on-reckless-day-out.html

Or 'Find Kony 2012'

Remember that one? All the self righteous tits all over social media hammering away on keyboards and feeling smug about it.

Ha ha ha.

c68zapdsm5i1ru

Nothing self righteous about wondering why someone would put their children in danger despite warnings all over the media about treacherous weather conditions. Supposing someone had to jump in to rescue the child and lost their own life? It does happen, you know. Or what about rescue workers being called out for totally avoidable accidents concerning people who ignore all warnings and put their own and other people's lives in danger?

the best craic we had growing up was when a sometimes reckless father took over minding the kids:D

Driving to the shop either on the father's knee "controlling the steering wheel" or sitting in the passenger seat with him throwing his arm across me whenever there was a bend or a sudden change in speed

Ah Jaysus Joe. T'was a disgrace. Shouldn't be allowed

I hope they didn't live too far away. The child would be freezing cold and wet. Might have even got sick after this.
