    There's a lad up by me,gave me and my cousin a hammering when we were 14,accusing us of robbing his brothers hash,we didn't even know what hash was at the time.he came down after the fight was over with his brothers,they had hammers we were told as they looked for us.
    Yes roughly the same age as me and since then here's a little snippet of his crimes:

    Stabbed a relative.raped two girls abroad.broke a naggin bottle off his girlfriend's face.melted a plastic bag over another inmates face and slit his throat ( the guy later died but him and his accomplice got off on a technicality ). Bit a lump out of a rivals nose.

    At least four / five times I've gotten messages saying he was killed in an almost celebratory manner.our community will be delighted when he's gone.

    We had 2 local scumbags die from a nearby town this year supposedly on the way back from a 'job'. The girlfriend/wife of one of them is constantly putting up pictures and posts about how much she misses him and how great he was. He may have been to her but I find it a bit sickening knowing the pain and hurt he caused others. I'm sure she knew what he done in his spare time. They sometimes show up on my Facebook feed when one of my friends likes the post. Have to restrain myself from reminding the 30+ people who also liked it what pure knackers they were.

    "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything" is probably a good attitude when someone has died, but god forbid people don't say anything when someone dies in this country. The exact fcuking people who'll be the loudest with "ah sure god love him, he was grand" in public will be practically rubbing their hands together in glee at the tasty tidbit of gossip behind closed doors too, especially if it's the off season for GAA and nobody's gotten pregnant recently.

    I remember when there was a murder in the village I grew up in a couple of years back, all the bloody curtain twitching shítheads practically looked ten years younger they were having such a great time.

    Basically a lad from my home town, in his mid 20's died this week due to various complications caused by long term hard drug use.

    He had many convictions, armed robbery & assault to name but a few and spent time in prison.

    He was an active thug and outright scummer up until the complications started several months ago. Not a weekend would go by where him or one of his cronies would assault someone outside one of the many bars they were barred from after closing. He is from a long line of thugs and many of his midnight buddies he's left behind I would imagine are still strung out on the same hard drugs that killed him at this moment.

    What I cannot get my head around is the outpouring of grief from a lot of people from the town on social media, very respected business people too. Not 6/7 years ago did he use a hand gun to rob the local mace holding up a young girl from the town with a gun, the shop shortly after closed because of it.

    I have had little or no dealings with him in 10 years. But maybe my thought process is tainted as my last dealing with him was a headbut which i received when I was 17.

    Am I being harsh or does an unbelievably filthy past one of bullying, terrorising, beatings and assaults, drug use, robbery, vandalism and many many more be forgiven just like that?

    Put it this way.......

    If he came back as a zombie, would he be a nice zombie like yer man from warm bodies or a cunt zombie like one of the lads from the walking dead?

    One less scummer in the world. I wish there was a bad batch of yokes to wipe out a few in my town too.

    The problem with that is that the batch would take out a lot of nice decent young people as well

    Defo wouldn't think twice if a violent scumbag died in the course of his scumbag-ness, however I would give 'some' respect if he/she'd changed their ways and had started to pay back society what they'd taken from it before their demise - fair enough? As for the families spoken of .... a lot of them would have disowned them long before they died (as scumbags), so that their grief etc. is a bit twin-swordy, to my mind!

    Why? I mean he was obviously a parasite on society and he didn't think nice so why should anyone afford him that just because he is dead? like I don't care that he is dead and, from what I have read think society is better now that he is, so why should I be nice when if it was me being carted off in a box he'd probably just laugh about it. We do not owe the dead anything, the only people we owe respect to is people who died and actually made a contribution to our society that we hold so dear whereas pricks like him added nothing, his death won't even be a footnote whereas Nelson Mandela's death will be something we talk about for the next 100 years because Nelson made a difference that wasn't totally self centered

    There was a bloke from around here died of an overdose a few years back. He was a real scumbag so a lot of people were glad to see the back of him, they wouldn't say it though.

    I only met him twice, the 1st time was on a bus where he attacked a girl, the 2nd time was about 11 years ago. I woke up at 2 in the morning and could hear someone at the front door trying to get in. I went down and caught him trying to break into the house. Luckily I had brought the baseball bat with me (I always do if I hear anything dodgy at night) so I was able to convince him to move on.

    But what's the point of falling over yourself to be mean about somebody right at the point when his family are grieving? why not just keep your negative opinions to yourself at that point, seeing as he's dead and all, and isn't likely to hear them and go "jesus, I should sort myself out"?

    I can think of a few scumbags around here whose death certainly wouldn't move me to tears to say the least, but I don't think my low opinion of them is so important that I'd have to go and tell it to people immediately should they die. I'll just keep my mouth shut and occupy my mind with something more interesting than pointless bitching

    And you didn't go to his funeral and say "Here lies a great man, a noble man, a man of the people, loved by all, hated by none, in his grace we should find ourselves humbled"?

    You selfish bastard...

    Because funerals are for families.

    I can understand why locals might want to give the dead man a piece of their mind, if he were alive, but civilized society adheres to a tradition that the sins of the father are not those of the son -- or vice versa, as the case may be.

    People try to comfort families in their time of loss. Call that crazy, but that's what normal people do.

    It's just the worst trait in our national character: cowardice. The guy was a scrote who brought misery to others. If people don't want to tell it like it was then they should just say nothing. The absence of the usual shyte should get the message across. It's interesting you say he came from a long line of thugs. They usually do.

    You do not know the half of it. He is closely related to a founding member of a very well known criminal gang that terrorised the town for many years.

    The gang is synonymous with the town and was referenced in many crime books in the 90's and 00's by various authors.

    I suppose he couldn't escape being a complete cnut.

    No one is talking about standing up at a funeral and declaring that someone deserved to die here love, if anything everyone is saying that they have no reason to feel pity and have no reason to pretend they do just to make others feel better. If a family want to lie at a funeral and say their son/daughter was a saint when really they were a drug using, assault dealing **** then all well and good but thats what they want to say, they can't expect all their victims to agree just because it is now a stiffy

    Remember my post you quoted? The one that said "if you can't say anything nice don't say anything"? I'm not talking about pretending to be sad, or pretending you liked the person, I'm just talking about not saying ANYTHING. That's what you for some reason had a problem with, which implies that you think one should say something, even if they don't have anything nice to say.

    No. I'm also glad he's gone. There was a bloke like that in my area, when I was growing up. I heard years ago he had a heart attack. I'm imagining him now, writhing in agony, grasping at his chest in vain, the years of bad living finally catching up with him. Good riddance.

    This in not about who or what funerals are for it is about why people ****ing lie at them when they are totally aware of the truth

    Totally, I don't lie and saying nothing is also a lie. If someone is a c*nt you should be allowed say it not lie just because of some stupid opinion like "The dead are immune". No one lied about how happy they were when Saddam Hussein and Osamba Bin Ladin died, how is this any different? Tell me something nice about Saddam Hussein or Osamba Bin Ladin then without using the words "They were well hung"

    Saying nothing is not a lie, saying nothing is saying nothing. I don't have anything nice to say about Saddam Hussein or Bin Laden, and the fact that you think that their deaths are comparable to some scummy little gangster in the midlands shows a lack of perspective that partially explains why you think that it's a matter of principle that you express your unsolicited opinion that someone who's died is a c*nt.

    To be honest girl, between your posts on this thread and the last one I'm going to have to take my own advice of "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything" and put you on ignore.
