    I think I would increase the legal age for alcoholic consumption to 20 and decrease the voting age to 17.
    I would ban alcohol completely. I drink myself, quite a bit, but am used to having to source other recreational drugs illegally so reckon I could cope. It would be great just to make the hypocritical self righteous cunts see what what its like for a change.

    I would ban walking on pathways next to roads too. Because pedestrians are annoying and dangerous. Especially in Dublin. Weaving in and out of traffic, going through red lights and moving from path to road when it suits them. I've nearly crashed into illegally crossing pedestrians more times than I can count at this stage!

    Again mainly just to irritate the pathetic self righteous hypocritical cunts out there

    Fines should be based on a % of income, some fines are in some countries already.

    Send David Drumm and his cronies to the Gulag
    Refund everyone who has paid the Quinn Insurance Levy and the Michael O'Leary volcanic ash levy.
    Make all prisoners serve their full sentence with time added on for bad behaviour instead of time taken off for good behaviour.
    Make all fathers financially responsible for their offsprings. If you bring a child into this world the least you can do is to make sure that the mother/State are not the ones to pay for your child to be reared.
    Put a ban on RTE using the same presenters ad nauseum.
    Ban all Christmas ads/shopping/music until after 8th December
    Give everyone 6 bonus days off work to be taken whenever you like
    And finally..... take the cars keys from every gobsh1te that parks like this

    I'm interested, what type of pie?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,080 ✭✭✭✭Maximus Alexander


    People who microwave sausages; gulag.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,692 ✭✭✭✭osarusan


    Anybody advocating minimum sentencing laws gets minimum 2 years in prison.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 310 ✭✭TheWarChicken


    We are very quickly running out of space in the gulags. I propose we use the isle of man that we invaded and turn it into a massive gulag.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,313 ✭✭✭✭Sam Kade


    Neuter all scumbags and hefty prison sentence for first offence on a floating ship mid atlantic with food dropped once a week :) It could be called "the great scumbag cull" that also includes traveling Nomads who think they are above the law.

    I would begin a process of demolition in Dublin, demolishing our ugliest buildings.

    The Central Bank
    Hawkins House... apparently it has a penthouse flat, complete with an avocado bathroom suite and florid wallpaper.
    Apollo House... Durrty
    The Screen Cinema Got wanked-off to Kill-Bill in there. Might save it for nostalgic reasons.
    Phibsboro Shopping Centre... why can't Northsiders have nice things?

    I think hawkins house is scheduled to be knocked down and to be replaced by a new office block or an apartment block.
    The system we have now means its hardly worth it for a woman on welfare
    to ask for money from the father .
    Some claim money and some do not.

    I'd ban kids getting lifts to school if they live within 3km of the school

    I would round up people over the age of 80 and study them to determine what nutrients can be extracted.

    Nobody can post more than 10 times on a thread about NI/IRA/Loyalists.

    Lollipop ladies who operate away from a designated pedestrian crossing could be imprisoned and people who press the pedestrian crossing button ten times in quick succession could be shot on the spot.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭we'llallhavetea


    i'd legalise weed, nothing but sh!te around at the minute.

    No problem with that myself as long as they also made Gillette razors free also.

    Think nappies world be more relative.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,387 ✭✭✭D0NNELLY


    Lollipop ladies and men lollipop ladies who stop traffic for e v e r y kid instead of letting a few kids build up (possibly let two or even three cars through) would be flogged.

    Legalise abortion.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,721 ✭✭✭✭Geuze


    Why would you roll your eyes at sanitary towels being free? It's a basic requirement for much of the population.

    Food is a basic requirement.

    Should it be free?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 788 ✭✭✭Sound Bite


    The dole should be reduced on a sliding scale the longer you avail on it.

    Exception being if you are over 60s and have worked a min of 30 years

    Abortion to be legalised - if you don't like it you don't have to avail of it but let other have their choice

    BMW or Audi drivers who fail to use their indicators to have their cars impounded and be forced to drive a nissan micra for a period of 5 years

    Rapists to be chemically castrated

    Any asshole with more than 5 convictions to be jailed for life -"troubled background or not"

    Every new house built in the country for the next 5 years to have a maximum purchase price of 300k

    Luas drivers to be fired and rehired at a lower wage

    Any refugue/asylum seekers found guilty of a crime to be immediately deported - if we let you in, play by our rules

    Religion to have no role in education

    Organ donation to be opt out rather than opt in

    if you are over 20 and play Pokemon Go, those who don't reserve the right to judge you

    Auro enrolment in pension scheme

    Middle management in HSE to be withdrawn immediately - money needs to be better spend

    Mental health service unit in each town - max waiting list of 6 weeks, with emergency access to those who need it

    Increase rights for single fathers

    Mayo to be excluded from the All Ireland Football Championship for the next 5 years

    I'd cut the tongues right out of the heads of the insensitive morons who tell strangers struggling with misfortunes that the strangers "shoulda" or "shouldnta" done something in the past. I'd continue with the hands of the people who begrudge paying their fair share to support a decent society.
