Girl pushed under train.

The one who threw her under is wearing red. He does seem shocked after, throwing his hands up in the air

He is the little shit that spat, yes spat , in two girls faces.

Actually they didn't push her under. He shouted or spat in her face and she recoiled and fell.

Zzelda boo hoo
Hi tell that to someone who cares.

How calmly he walks away too knowing his just thrown someone under a train.

Monster!!

When we moved away from using corporal punishment, it was never based on hard evidence of what does or doesn't work. It was basically a moral reform. It's "progressive" and "humanitarian" to stop doing it.

I guess I could say, the fact that we used those punishments for hundreds of years is evidence that they must have been useful.

You could only claim that they must have been useful if the result was that theft etc was wiped out Self-evidently, that didn't happen. Equally, of course, the threat of imprisonment, community service, probation etc have not wiped out theft, but at least they don't involve cold-bloodedly inflicting extreme violence on someone.

The rest of them have been identified.

I’ve signed the petition. This entire video is so shocking you think it can’t be real (he was gwtting of his bike and accidentally kicked her for example) but when you watch it the second time you see that it was no accident and everything was intentional!!

Those boys are disgusting!! And should be held accountable. Can we just accept for a minute that the girl who went under the trained could of died that day- lost her life- murdered!!

This is inciting and condoning criminal assault, particularly the last sentence

There's always one.

I think it is the parenting. But that has nothing to do with how rich or poor the parents may be.

There is a 19 year old boy in my town that sells drugs, causes trouble, bothers elderly people by sitting outside their homes with music blaring at midnight - he is with others, but he is the ring leader. His parents own a huge property development company, he lives in a mansion with an indoor pool, and drives around in a brand new car that Mummy and Daddy bought him. He is not expected to work. So he just hangs about with other "kids", generally causing mayhem.

Also, a few boys beat a security guard up about a year ago - they almost killed him. In the foray one of the attackers had a designer cap ruined. What did his Mum do? Treated him to a new one.

Namby pamby parenting. Kids growing up in a society where adults don't say "no".

Of course, on the other hand, you do have the kids born in to abject poverty. Their parents are high on something and don't give 2 shits where the kids are, or what they're doing. Of course these kids will gravitate towards gangs, in order to belong somewhere. And then it's survival of the fittest. If you're not seen as "hard", you'll be picked on.

In both cases above, the parenting is to blame.

Either way, I'd lock these little shits up for 5 years minimum. See how "hard" they are in jail with some real hard criminals.

I don't think its that new. I grew up in a fairly naice town and when getting the train as a teenager we would frequently have to run a gauntlett of boys jeering, doing that wierd headbutty movement and occassioanlly spitting. Nowhere near as bad as in the video, but definately intended to intimidate and they would be crowded on the platform when you got of so you had no choice but to walk past/through them with your head down.
In theory they would target anyone but they were particularly bad towards "vulnerable" targets - e.g. 15 year old girls, teenage boys by themselves, women by themselves. But not grown men or anyone likely to be trouble for them. So there is definately a gendered element.
I am not saying it was as bad in the video, but watching the video brought back that awful panicky feeling of having to walk through it.

Not really the type of PR you want
Yes I think naming and shaming can be a powerful tool, let everyone see how despicable this person is so that his peers also judge him

Interestingly if you type “Shelbourne football clu” into google the top option that comes up is “Shelbourne football club Jason Delaney”. There is also “Shelbourne football club statement”.

Both of these are above “Shelbourne football club shop” as options.

It’s a total lack of empathy, pride and community. Judging anyone is now not the done thing, community cohesion is gone and pride is gone.

I look at our local town, ex mining, removing the mine, and the veg picking kids and mums used to do, and flinging it into the benefits system, driving those that could (the MC) into jobs away from the community destroyed the community, removed the pride and the internet put paid to any empathy. Adding just softly supporting rather than outright judgement of poor behaviour and you have a perfect storm.

I agree that things have got a lot worse since lockdown, and I think this is going to be one of the most damaging long-term effects of it. My parents live in a Cotswold village that has never had any issues but is now blighted by the vandalism and intimidation of male teens who seem to have turned feral in the last year.

I know most cities have problems, I just wasn't aware of it in Dublin. Ive been there many times. What happened to the friendly city I knew? Im really quite shocked by other posts, where people who live in Dublin are talking about what goes on there. It wasn't that I was singling out Dublin per se. I know other cities that have issues, but I think it's got worse since Lockdown. Young folk are bored, fed up and many places are still closed. Where I live it's quite a rough area and anti-social behaviour, along with complaints about neighbours, have skyrocketed. We had spates of violence with folk attacked at random. The perpetrators were caught. In my opinion sentences though are a joke. The criminals now have more rights than the victims.

The removal of guards was more about changing their role, they would still be on board the train but would not have responsibility for opening and locking the doors. The fuss a couple of years ago was because it means trains would be able to run without them if there was none available, which means the guard and their unions would no longer have the power to disrupt services if they didn't get their way in negotiations.

Yes - the ultimate aim was to have trains without any guards at all. Thus further reducing the capacity of vulnerable people to get help.

"The unions" were unsurprisingly looking after the interest of their members. The government is more than happy to point at how disruptive the unions are and blame them. And thus the protection for vulnerable people (often women) is reduced and nobody notices or cares.

Dear God, that is horrifying to watch. And that Guard at the end.......

Who on earth are raising these kids????

This is so shocking to watch. We’ve been talking about a holiday in Dublin, but will go somewhere else.
