  • The woman should have been sensible enough not to be there in the first place. You cannot blame the Gardaí for the woman being a stupid idiot.

  • fair play to the gardai. Not easy having to deal with these head bangers. Same as Shell in Mayo. They are just enforcing the law.

  • there preaching to the gardai about politics hahaah the gardai havent a clue about politics! they only know one thing.. and thats to take revenge for the years of abuse they got in school growing up!

  • Well done to the Gardai, handled very well

  • Some people just don't live in the real world. This video shows nothing. I very much doubt you can blame the Gardaí for the woman going into labour either. Besides the Gardaí had a court order they were told to enforce. Its the courts you should be blaming here. The Gardaí are doing there job.

  • understand this, if you try to impose some sort of demand for more compensation on

    perspective buissness looking to set up here from other countries, then they go elsewhere.

    making assumptions is usually based on evidence. i.e. your support for the protestors

    in the video.

  • Or we could try a social-democratic overhaul of the system. We could try and develop much needed indigenous industries. We could focus, for example, on renewable energy. We could try and prop up the welfare state to get spending running again.

    But, barring all that... because we're talking about a very specific case... we could demand that comapnies that aren't bankrupt and decide to up and leave pay fair redundancies.

    Making stupid assumption? That's the essence of ignorance. Mirror anyone?
