Went through a red light at at least 100 klms an hour = complete arsehole.

About 2am they got as far as kiltipper hill. It looked like a Passat getting chase by about 6 squad cars. Hope they beat the ****e out of him.

Just saw a cop car on the main road, it eventually turned off onto the backroad. Crazy stuff.

Ah the passats may sound agricultural but calling them tractors is a bit much.

Maybe they heard of cheap donuts for sale somewhere?

"I'm impounding these donuts for further analysis".

Maybe this: http://www.independent.ie/irish-news/socky-the-thief-busted-after-a-30km-garda-chase-31614355.html

An armed garda unit chased a suspected burglar - who has been dubbed "Socky the Thief" - at high speeds for over 30km in the early hours of yesterday morning.

The drama started at a housing estate in Ashbourne, Co Meath, when detectives spotted the suspect driving out of a housing estate in the town.

When the vehicle failed to stop, a chase ensued - and ended up finishing 32km away in the Cloonmore estate in Tallaght

You know what, after the week the gardai have just had, I'm more than happy to say "park on that double yellow for 5 mins and grab yourself a bite to eat. You deserve it"

If they only had access to such modern technology as Google Maps they could plan the chase and call other stations to setup roadblocks rather than have 10 cars chasing another car all over the city.

I think they might just plan on following it for all eternity.

Two months ago I saw an Audi being blocked off into a cul de sac by three patrol cars, two unmarked cars and a Garda van. They all proceeded to follow the car into the cul de sac...a few minutes later, they all followed him back out onto the road they had blocked off originally. :pac:

The only Gardai actually effected by the tragic events recently were the Gardai who personally knew and worked alongside Garda Tony Golden .......... the rest of the Force were no more/less effected than you or me.

and exactly what would you know about it ? what a obnoxious petty small pathetic comment ,
you'd nearly be worth getting banned for describing in detail what i think of you only i fear you would lack the ability to under stand the larger words

Not really .......... I have quite a few friends, as well as relatives, who are members of AGS and, while they are all as saddened by the murder of a man simply doing his job as the rest of us, they are no more/less personally effected by it than the rest of us ......... just like the murder/death of a Taxi driver, while tragic for said Taxi driver's family and friends, doesn't personally effect every single Taxi driver in the country.

its a bit sad for you that you think your worth remembering

Were you at the funeral? Did you ever, on your day off or before your evening shift, hop on a bus or drive for a couple of hours to pay respect to a work colleague? 4000 men and women did that yesterday. If they weren't affected they would have stayed at home.

Yes of course I have, I've gone out of respect even if I wasn't personally effected by the actual emotional loss of the individual I was paying my respects to ........ I was talking only this morning to members of AGS who did attend the funeral in order to show respect to the uniform ......... then they got on with their lives/jobs.
