Dublin Videos

Opportunist thugs.

What do you expect when our government orders everyone under house arrest and then only commits the police to act under a danger to life policy?
These red warnings need to be backed up with armed soldiers on patrol, in order to keep scumbags at home.

On a more serious note my best mate works for ESB networks (national grid) and his heart is broken with the amount of abandoned cars on rural roads while trying to fix faults. In order to ram the cars out of his way, he needs a garda report to verify that the car is abandoned. In all cases he has to tow the garada Hyundai up the road with his Unimog to get the signature and then tow them back down and send the garda on his way. Guess what, half a kilometre later, he meets another abandoned car.
Ireland is gone mad.

The gas thing is that the civil defence is decked out with 4×4 but when they are available to a Co Council , the council has to pay them per hour until the council staff clear the road, so the council stand them down to avoid the cost. A little know fact is,that you as joe public can hire the civil defense to help in your situation and they will help you to get to the emergency services and I believe that the cost is very reasonable . The civil defence is voluntary community effort led organisation.

Definition of the Lounge:

"Pull yourself up a Captains chair and let us have some of yer Craic! For discussion on anything - life, universe and all that's in it."

If I was in a pub with Dave (eirebus) last night, I would of turned around to him and said something like "f**k, did you see the video's from Dublin" )Dave is a DUB) - you see I find the fact that someone got a Hymac (or some other make of Digger) and demolished an entire Lidl, quite shocking in my view.

The Lounge on MHC is a virtual PUB, sort off.

My post about Dublin seemed to have a weird affect (mostly on bakebook), seems weird to me anyhow, but then I'm a bit weird also.

"Look what they do up the North in July" - you kidding me? what has that go to do with someone in a huge machine wrecking a Lidl? I assume the poster was referring to the riots etc in July in the past. Both are equally as bad as each other, both are shocking. One is destruction and has a lot of history and the one in Dublin is destruction. Both are equally as wrong as the other.

This was not mentioned as some sort of contest between different area's. The shock was the huge digger raising a Lidl to the ground. If you feel like you need to defend what happened in Dublin in some way by comparing it to what happens in another City, IMO you are somewhat confused.

Must say the guys in the dump truck were bloody funny. Shock Horror disbelief.

The fact it happens is not surprising, people all over Ireland, North, South, East and West are pissed of with the current state of the country/s - infrastructure, politicians, lack of jobs, lack of money, downtrodden poor - the top 1% having more wealth than the other 99% - I could go on.... but looting and destroying a Lidl is not exactly the way to go about it.

I am amazed the pitch forks have not come out before now, I am even more amazed I am not standing in front of the crowd with my own pitch fork. The problem with Irish people, we have become to laid back and are accepting of our politicians instead of taking to the streets en masse like the French do. I think the North is on a knife edge and people don;t wish to rock the boat but maybe that's what we ALL should be doing - standing up and being counted.

I f***ing hate the "themuns and thoseuns" attitude, we are all humans.

Too soon?

Yup, and future stores are to be built from 'indestructible' dog toys....

The people I feel for are the local people who have now lost their jobs.
I had great fun sharing posts on Facebook that these morons had put up showing themselves looting.
F*cking scum.
