Last time I was in Ireland, we only saw a Guarda at the airport and nowhere else. I mean, nowhere else at all. No police cars on any road and none in any towns.

Last time I was in Ireland, we only saw a Guarda at the airport and nowhere else. I mean, nowhere else at all. No police cars on any road and none in any towns. It was very quiet so how would they enforce this?
- PhasmaFelis 5y agoJust because you didn't see any police on your visit doesn't mean there are none.
- mandmandam 5y agoOrganise a protest against being taxed a third time for water, or protest against a large fashion company pulling out with giving you your contractually obligated severance pay, and the Gardai will show up 40 strong. Landlords have gotten Gardai to assist evictions multiple times, even without cause or paperwork being shown. In contrast, a week ago or so it came out that Gardai were ignoring thousands of domestic abuse calls to emergency services - just deleting them without follow-up. I could go on and on but let there be no doubt, these are not people you would want to trust with your phone - and if you are crossing them they absolutely will show up and stand by as you get pulled around by your ears by balaclavaed thugs, etc.
