    There were actual post code gangs before any of this and they were on a order of magnitudes worse. Google "d22 clondalkin gang" and read about legit criminals to be scared of (well they're not around anymore)

    I remember absolutely ZERO threads about these lads on boards.ie.

    Its pretty much public knowledge around North Dublin where these gangs are based.

    Its not the first time or the first area they have targeted.

    There are of course scumbags that exist locally in all of these areas but thats not what this thread is about

    If a murderer lived on your street would you be happy to hear that your street was a kip... murderers roaming your street... you’ld accept that as ‘public knowledge’ and be fine with your street, your family’s future being tarnished?

    It's highly galling for a poster who claims to be from Balbriggan would want to shut down this discussion when so many of your fellow residents are actively campaigning to address this blight of violent crime.

    I never said Balbriggan was a kip

    I think these gangs need to be challenged

    I ‘claim’ to be from Balbriggan???
    I’m born (well, the Lourdes) and bred in the town...like my family going back generations.

    Why would someone asking for inflammatory comments to end be galling to you? You’ve little to be galled about :)

    You might consider the motivations of some behind that ‘protest’ at the Garda station... perhaps there was a political band wagon being jumped on??? Just sayin is all...

    Disclaimer:
    Not all references I may have made have been about your comments!

    These ‘gangs’ need to be challenged -Exactly and that is best done by enabling the people of the town to do so, not by running down the whole town so people lose motivation.

    Taking kids out of poverty via education and employment is the best solution, running down where they live so they can’t even claim ‘pride of place’ decreases their life chances further... thereby ensuring they are more likely to make bad choices.... no hope = no consideration for your own future or surroundings.

    Reminds me of the way some in Catholic Church shamed an entire family because of the ‘mistake’ of one of their members... awful lot of judgement going on around these parts!

    For anyone that is interested in the subject of mass immigration in Europe and is looking for intelligent, rational evidence and opinion as to why the demographics are changing so quick I'd recommend 'The Strange Death of Europe by Douglas Murray' Real eye opener.
    Very brave man . He is not afraid to tell it as it is .

    Nowhere the same scale that happened in the 60s and 70s when inner city folks were moved en masse to social housing in the outskirts. Growing up in the late 90s there was a crazy time. I unfortunately became a little c#nt of teenager, grew out of it as had a good family. My point being is that you can't clump high risk families like that in the same place. Integration is key. Not that it's an excuse, nobody should be treated any differently once the law is broken regardless of background etc.

    I'm actually happy for you that you're not subtle about being racist. But at the same time I feel sorry for you that it's the main driving force in your life. I hope in the future you can look back at this time with regret and be a better person.

    For now I'm not gonna continue any dialogue with you, it's impossible to chat to someone with your metal capicty on any topic with nuance or logic.

    That Clondalkin gang had links to many gangs around Dublin. What these black animals are trying to replicate is whats happening in London.

    So not comparable to the Clondalkin "D22" gang.


    There were, and are, multiple gangs of youths in Tallaght, Jobstown, Ardmore, Clondalkin, Ronanstown, Ballyfermot, Cherry Orchard, Finglas, Blanchardstown, Crumlin and Drimnagh that were formed solely on the basis of locality and fight based on the same.

    Or you could actually invest time in something that works and not crazy fantasies. But we both know that would never happen.

    Although I do agree with your sentiment that these are not that dangerous of a gang compared to nearly every other area in Dublin. Though doesn't take away from the fact that something urgently needs to be done, both in the short and long term.

    That's disgusting! you should be ashamed of yourself for such a comment.

    Race shouldn't have anything to do with this at all. The focus is and should always be, the behavior.

    Ok so the basic problem with this is equating a behaviour (something that is optional) with something that is not optional (colour of skin)
    It could be interpreted as saying that there are behaving like animals specifically because they are black.
    In addition, there is another disturbing context... which is as follows... there tends to be a common thread in racism that black people are somehow sub human, or less human than white people. So calling black people animals empowers this morally corrupt idea....

    Many racist people, especially those who don't even appear to know that they are racist, tend to have lower than average IQ's. So the approach that I'm trying to take here is one education as opposed to criticism...

    You wouldn't have the stones to talk like that in the real world. Typical coward. Can't even admit hes a racist online behind a new account. The one thing you strongly believe and you're afraid to admit it or say it outright even with a curtain anonymity. Laughable and sad.

    Is there anyway a few Halting Sites would help ?

  • Registered Users Posts: 179 ✭✭Samuel Vimes


    I lived in Balbriggan until a few years ago, Newhaven area, never seen any trouble with gangs except what you would normally see with teenagers congregating neat shopping areas etc.
    The only real trouble was in the summer when gangs of youths would get the train down from Dublin and occasionally cause havoc on the beach, but that seems to be an issue all along the northern line in the summer.

    Zappone is one of the most dangerous people in the current government in this regard (because of the support she gives the FG minority she's been able to use her department to push her own private migrant agenda and anti-Trump sentiments - remember she tried to start a row over the pre-clearance issue).

    I got through the first page of this thread before I had to skip ahead.. The usual whataboutery from the usual suspects although I'm sure the racist/xenophobic accusations are in here somewhere, and the "but the Irish went everywhere in the last century too" argument.

    So, seeing as it's the same old really, I'll give my usual position.

    Come here legally, have valuable experience and skills needed and the ability to support yourself, while integrating positively into your new community and society.... Welcome!

    Turn up claiming asylum (having probably travelled through multiple safe countries first), bring the same destructive and incompatible "culture" you claim to be escaping, have nothing to offer except being another drain on our welfare system, and expect to be accommodated (literally and culturally) at the expense of the natives.... Back where you came from!

    Commit (serious) crimes or behave as those in the OP's links... Arrested, court the next day (because justice can move swiftly when it wants to) and if convicted, first plane back to where you came from! (none of this nonsense of imprisonment at the taxpayer's expense).

    And finally, this recent idea of social media crusading to prevent deportations of people who haven't been given legal rights to remain shouldn't be heeded at all. There's numerous legitimate ways to gain residency in Ireland. Use them or again.. Back where you came from!

    Does this make me cold, uncaring or "racist".. Do I care? Nope.
    Charity begins at home and we have enough problems here with antisocial wasters without importing more of them, a significant percentage of whom are even more dangerous. Why there's the idea that "but, but.. here it'll be different!" is beyond me.

    I'd far rather a safe country for my son to grow up in than a divided, ghettoised hell hole for the sake of "likes" and virtue signalling on Twitter :rolleyes:

    Great post that nails what most Irish people want, just sensible policies and no bull****, we want people coming here to want to come here, to add positively to our country. We want immigration at a pace that allows for integration and for us to keep our culture and identity.

    Unfortunately the people in power have very different ideas altogether. Its been show all over Europe that the will of the people regarding this issue doesn't matter, the higher ups will push their policies based on their own ideologies regardless, they will never have to deal with the negative consequences themselves.

    There is no one even close to vote for here that agrees with your ideas, people who are worried about this getting out of hand quickly will get more desperate with the situation and you'll get a large amount of people voting for a small far right party even though most of the parties values will not match with their own personal morals, just so the message gets out that we need change to this open boarder policy quickly. It's failed in the rest of Europe (Even Angela Merkel has admitted this) and it will fail here.

    Project 2040 is going to be some craic if nothing drastic changes very quickly

    According to that news article it won't be gang members.
    There are at least 17 gangs operating in the prison system and feuding gang members have to be separated but the Prison Service says the unit will not cater for criminal gang members.

    The fact he shot himself isnt the issue. The issue is why? What did he hand to the prosecution on morning of trial starting? What gangsters pocket was he in? What information was he caught giving to said gangster? Did he knowingly allow a murder take place?

    It is true. And obviously it doesnt. Murder is murder but murder by proxy is illegal and on those grounds will clear the accused

    murder by proxy is illegal. But that does not make the person who actually commits the murder any less guilty. If hutch is depending on a "well the guards knew i was going to do it so you should let me off" as a defence he will be sorely disappointed.

    Wouldn't say his assumptions are outlandish.

    Regarding the legal aspects of murder by proxy, did I not read cases previous where people were considered working on behalf of the state when committing serious crimes had some sort of immunity? Maybe it was cases in the north during the troubles, or might have been in another country.
