    Ive also witnessed junkies calling fast food workers racist profanities

    Id imagine its because many people consider them the dregs of society and so there is nothing to lose when youre as low as you can go. They dont care

    I wonder about the use of the term Racism in this situation and feel we are very fast to jump to it, They are scumbags for sure but these people will throw a fit regardless of who is telling them they cant use the toilet, if the person was "white" they would have received abuse also I am sure, so the question is was it pure racism(ie; the hate of a race other than your own) or just aggressive abuse that focused on a physical characteristic? If for example if he was a Fat Irish guy and they were shouting abuse about him being fat does that automatically make them fat-phobic or would they just still be scumbags?

    It's always something I've wondered about these 'racist' mongerers to be honest. It seems many of them think you can be a **** as long as you don't say anything that can be regarded as racist and you're grand.

    A few of the antifa people I know (they are in this country unfortunately) come out with bile and hatred far worse than you're average racist.

    It's just that they're PC when they do it.

    The heroin problem in Dublin is horrendous and getting worse year on year. It is something the Govt, the Gardai and Dublin City Council should collectively hang their heads in shame over.

    Something really badly needs to be done at this stage because it is out of control.

    I'm sure we could do a deal with Somalia, Sierra Leone or Christmas Island and ship them all out of a one way ticket. The world should nominate somewhere as a modern day version of Van Dieman's land as a dumping ground for undesirables.

    Just witnessed about 3 so called “unwell” strong dublin accent poorly dressed white Irish ppl give dreadful seriously aggressive racist abuse to a black security guard as he refused to allow them to use the toilet facilities. Plenty of profanities and threats to do this that and the other to the security guard.

    One of them claimed to have his lawyer on the mobile phone while the incident was ongoing.

    Why do the dublin non working junkie/drug addicts/unwell resort to racism so quickly?

    On a side note I often notice they profess to being huge fans of the likes of 2 pac, snoop dog etc

    Shameful carry on.


    Did you do anything to assist?

    Scumbags shouting abuse is nothing new.

    True, its nothing new. So is it really "seriously aggressive racist abuse" then?

    Not for me.
    If he was fat,skinny,bald,from the country,ginger,really tall,really short,whatever outstanding feature, the junkie scum would have focused on that and abused the security guard for it.

    How we let these zombies roam around our city so freely is beyond me. Before anyone starts I’m sorry but these wasters offer ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to society. North inner city is ruined by their presence.

    Also Non-National gypsy gangs are a major problem.


    Non-Nationals who commit crime should be deported.

    "Non National" as distinct from the National gypsies who are model citizens

    Only on AH would people claim that someone shouting racist abuse at a person, isn't actually racism as they have deduced that if the victim was fat, he would have been abused for that?

    Seriously?
    Racial abuse isn't racism, now?

    Because the easiest, laziest insults are ones based on physical appearance.

    Probably authors of a few threads in the boards 'Prison' over the past few years too.

    And maybe just maybe one of them has re reged again just to troll this thread.
