I'd like them to see them give lifts home from the pub if there's not much happening, any ideas yourself?

kneemos · 11-05-2014 11:03PM

Pet rescue services.

Wacker The Attacker · 11-05-2014 11:04PM

A police force

Frynge · 11-05-2014 11:04PM

Go faster stripes on their hats.

fleet_admiral · 11-05-2014 11:05PM

shorter skirts and bigger diddys

Sir Arthur Daley · 11-05-2014 11:05PM

Fast food delivery service, would get the pizzas at least an extra 5 degree hotter as they can break red lights.

I used to always get lifts home in the squad car.

Oh the banter we used to have.

'Should you cnuts not be out fighting crime?' I drunkenly jibe them

'Shut yer fcuking mouth or we'll start with you ya drunken wastard' they used to retort.

Good times.

I'd like them (and the law) to come down hard on the amount of scum roaming around Dublin. Packs of feral children, junkies, groups of inbred-looking knackers.

kneemos · 11-05-2014 11:11PM

Casual acceptance of bribes.

The King of Moo · 11-05-2014 11:12PM

I'd like a special task force set up to clamp down on posts completely exaggerating the crime situation in Dublin.

I'd buy that for a dollar.

Put them on motorcycles and act as police, judge, jury and executioners

Hogan24 · 11-05-2014 11:13PM

The word "vehicle" pronounced properly!

More gardai dancing to Pharrel's Happy while on the beat

Senna · 11-05-2014 11:16PM

No point in reforming the guards without reform of the justice system. Catch more criminals and then a judge give someone with 50 previous convictions a slap on the a wrist

Reiver · 11-05-2014 11:16PM

Guns.

Tail Docker · 11-05-2014 11:17PM

A bit of energy.

Strumms · 11-05-2014 11:19PM

I'd like to see them given adequate resources and manpower to do their jobs, I'd like to see them given the support of their superiors and government. I'd like to see them open and cooperative to scrutiny and audit by GSOC and given all that I'd just like them to work hard and do the ****in job we pay them to.

An education for rural garda moving to Dublin. In experience rural Gardas assume everyone in Dublin carries knives( I dont give the slightest impression of a "scumbag", I apparently have a posh Dublin accent and never have owned a tracksuit). But yet I have been randomly stopped on nights out to ask me do I have a knife on my.

Also rurals garda refusing to sign forms as they dont personally know you. It isnt West Cork, where you know everyone. There is over 1.5 million in Dublin. You cant know everyone on a first name bases Plus most rural garda see Dublin something similar to south central LA(a crime riddled **** hole)

questionmark? · 11-05-2014 11:22PM

All Guards should be banned from Coppers they seem to go in there as good honest culchies wanting to make a difference in the world but come out the other side with an STI and some brain damage.

It might as well be compared to the rest of the country.

So rural guards only??
The "rural" guards are dealing with the Dublin scum all day long, I don't think they need an education on how lovely the city is.

No corruption

donvito99 · 11-05-2014 11:29PM

Reform of the courts service so that they send people who need to be excluded from society to prison with sentences that are appropriately long and proper community service.

Reform of the prison service so that the above can be accomplished.

Lapel cameras for all Gardaí dealing with the public as part of a modernisation of evidence gathering (i.e. no more transcribing interviews from tapes). Tasers following cameras for members who are routinely isolated with help typically 20+ mins as away result of the fall in numbers.

Strumms · 11-05-2014 11:34PM

The forms thing... While not high on the agenda is a bit of an odd one... A few years ago went into Pearce St to get a form signed... The big ginger culchie on the desk who was barely able to string a sentence together once I disturbed his almost slumber was almost comedic.. "Can't sign it don't know ye, your not from around here"

ME: well I dont know you either.. I'm in doing some shopping in town I just need the form signed..

HIM: ave to go ta yer local station.

ME:I don't know anyone there either

HIM: well they might know you

ME: They don't, if they would do I get a discount

HIM: no

ME: grand so sorry to disturb you.

HIM: grand
