The girls all have to run past the boys to board the train.
One girl is kicked in the face, spat on, shoved, tripped up, and ends up falling on to the tracks.

The guard in they hi vis yellow jacket just watches.

I'm at the end of my tether with male violence and entitlement.

I didn't realise Dublin had these problems. Such a beautiful city.
In the same way as many cities, not specific to Dublin.

Good god. Just Googled attacks in Dublin by gangs of youths and it seems its rife and nothing new. Gangs of 100 on the rampage, jumping on cars, attacking people, and nobody can stop them it seems.
What happened here is horrific, no doubt. But you are misinformed. I live in Dublin. For sure there's issues with anti social behaviour in some areas. Anecdotally it's worsened during lockdown.

However, it's not ubiquitous & certainly not limited to Dublin.

I wish it was enforceable,to round up these dangerous nasty lads who have a herd mentality, and to take them to somewhere akin to an army training camp for a few weeks, and to have some brutal training,to teach them some respect and manners towards all people, and to get them off the streets for some time.
Was this not tried many years ago, the "Short Sharp Shock"? I don't think it made any difference.

I feel sick.

I have NEVER seen such a thing.

Those girls are clearly USED to this.

Why are they allowed on the train?

Why are there no police on the streets?

States spend all their bloody money buying technology to solve a crime AFTER it has been done. Put police on the streets in numbers and stop it before.

Train companies who do not hire enough staff should not get contracts.

TheNestedIf · 11/05/2021 01:28

If there was a job that entailed kicking them in the bollocks 100 times daily, or as much as I liked, whichever was more I'd apply and never, ever retire.

Signed the petition. Thank you for raising awareness

EsmaCannonball · 11/05/2021 01:23

I saw this video on Sunday and I just can't understand how parents can raise children like this and not be utterly ashamed of them and themselves. When I clicked onto the story there was another article about a 15 year old boy in Ireland being prosecuted for stabbing a 48 year old woman to death as she left her office-cleaning job.

The thing that gets me is that many of the women wailing over this on Twitter never seem to stop and ask themselves how males like this will behave in mixed-sex facilities. Can you imagine how these yobs will behave if they are allowed to hang out in the women's toilets? Can you imagine having one in the bed next to you as you recover from an operation? I wish women would join the dots and see the damage they are doing when they give away our spaces.

Sounds bloody awful.

When will men make boys accountable?

I'm a railway guard in the UK. We are absolutely NOT trained or equipped for anything physical. We are told to avoid confrontation, to retreat to a safe place and call the police or ask our security contractors to intervene.

Wannabe Sir Galahad I might be - with strong chivalrous instincts to defend the vulnerable - there's still no way that I'd be wading alone into the middle of a teenage gang. One of our security staff got badly beaten up by such a gang recently.

SuperSleepyBaby · 11/05/2021 00:34

Another video on twitter-the one with faces blurred out -shows the guard rushing over just after the girl fell and pulling the girl off the tracks and up onto the platform.

Flaxmeadow · 11/05/2021 00:29

Also the guard might have noticed the girl but been occupied with keeping the train stationary, an emergency switch or calls to the driver or some other procedure. To immediately help the girl that way

babbaloushka · 11/05/2021 00:24

It's disgusting, if she had died (and she easily could have) they would be imprisoned for manslaughter or potentially murder. Anyone know if they've been charged?

Zinco · 11/05/2021 00:19

Can only hope they don't get away with it without some serious consequences but obviously no confidence that happens.

With the guard, you put hands on a child these days, you might get arrested over it. And obviously the risk of being attacked by a pack of animals.

bitheby · 11/05/2021 00:12

It's the guy with the bike that trips her

Gothichouse40 · 11/05/2021 00:08

It's really awful. Ive also heard this type of thing happens on the New York Subway to both men or women. A guy whose blogs I look at who lives there, keeps telling people to stand with their backs to the wall. There has been an increase in 'pusher' incidents. It's just horrible. To be fair I don't know how the guy in New York gets his information.

Flaxmeadow · 10/05/2021 23:58

When I first saw this I was horrified but what I hadn't noticed at first was that one of the girls had been pushed between the train onto the track!!! It was bad enough even without that

Horrible entitled little bastards
