Rumours are it's an Algerian fella going into a school and attaching stabbing children.
Set fire to an immigration centre apparently.Rumours are it's an Algerian fella going into a school and attaching stabbing children.
Now it might be, might not be - but lots of Irish folk have been getting upset about immigration recently; which is ironic.
I was just putting what I've read out there.Complete conjecture. You haven't a clue what it's about but you obviously have a skewed agenda..l have no idea but how about an estranged father who hasn't been able to see his child and " goes off on one"
Apparently the guys in his 50s and one of the little girls was only 5 so I can’t see it being an estranged father myself but who knowsComplete conjecture.

Went on a stag and found the Temple Bar area ok. Surely there are worse!Dublin is the only European city I’ve visited that I didn’t feel safe in.
Really? Never been.Dublin is the only European city I’ve visited that I didn’t feel safe in.
Not in the old days, it was special branch with trench coats on at every port looking pretty menacing.Used to go loads, train from Bangor to Holyhead and then foot passenger on the Dublin Swift, think it was a tenner, passport control consisted of one fella sat on a stool asking where you were from.

Ironic blaming it on immigrants when it turns out to a be a nutter and then the far right use it as an excuse to smash up the city.I can’t believe they put a rumour out
Why?
It's the lead story on the BBC website with live reportingNothing on BBC news this morning about the incident.
As they said at the time about Hamas, they are there to report, not judge. They have reported that the police chief said a far right hooligan element was to blame.Have the woke BBC grown a pair of balls yet and called them thugs or have they said the Irish Government has called them thugs?
Yes but they don’t have to keep saying the same thing over and over again on the breakfast, lunch time, and evening news not to mention the 24 hour news channel.As they said at the time about Hamas, they are there to report, not judge. They have reported that the police chief said a far right hooligan element was to blame.
I don't get the angst on this other than its another chance to put the boot in on the BBC.
The road I stayed on was almost in the city. On the corner was a cafe that was just full of drug users inside and out, so that was off-putting.Really? Never been.
Had to work in Belfast city centre about 15 years ago. There was a thread on here recently about how nice it was but I felt as you described. A little uncomfortable.
Do you know that 100% though?Ironic blaming it on immigrants when it turns out to a be a nutter and then the far right use it as an excuse to smash up the city.
Bit of a contradiction that, lead story on website but they don't bother to report it on their TV news channel is it any wonder they get slated.It's the lead story on the BBC website with live reporting
The road I stayed on was almost in the city. On the corner was a cafe that was just full of drug users inside and out, so that was off-putting.
Then I googled the street I was staying on and it came back with some historical deaths and murders and I didn’t help myself with that one.
The hotel was rated a 9 on booking.com but I felt like it was a dodgy area indeed.
Travelling alone may make me feel more vulnerable, but also I don’t drink, so the main buzz of Dublin (getting pissed) doesn’t apply to me to balance out the disappointment.
It didn’t help when I went to Cafe Nero and sat outside with a drink, and some old fella just turned up, dropped his pants in the doorway of the shop next door, and marked his territory.LALA
I used to go a lot and always loved it but not been for a while.
I can't remember why but I was on my jacks in a taxi and got dropped off a little bit away from my hotel.
I asked the taxi driver if I'd be OK, I know I am a sh1tbag - or should I say I am a lover and not a fighter - and he terrified me with stories about Russian immigrants.
I can't say I've ever had any trouble there but if you feel a bit scared I can see - not even being a lone female - how it can take away the enjoyment of a trip.
Look at the positives, at least it wasn't in your drink.It didn’t help when I went to Cafe Nero and sat outside with a drink, and some old fella just turned up, dropped his pants in the doorway of the shop next door, and marked his territory.
This was about 10.30 am. All very odd, and not in a good way.
It’s being reported on TV.Bit of a contradiction that, lead story on website but they don't bother to report it on their TV news channel is it any wonder they get slated.
Yes.Quite ironic that a Brazilian immigrant tackled the knife man; they will be crying into their puchin when they find out.
section removed.Yes.
And that the alleged attacker is an Irish Citizen.
Last nightDo you know that 100% though?
I’ve just watched a woman reporter live from Dublin this morning saying investigations are still ongoing as to what caused it (yes I know it was a multi stabbing) but they are keeping very secretive about the bloke who did it and the motive behind it.
But when you see pictures from last night with people carrying Irish flags saying Irish lives matter and enough is enough and the Garda talking about far right wing thugs it’s telling me it’s just more than a domestic issue.
I’ll wait and see before I say anymore on the subject and we’ve establish the facts.
Social media caused it all through misreporting, that's why you've seen an Albanian. It was initially an Algerian.I’ve just read a post of social media he’s an Albanian Immigrant (hence the backlash) but yes could still be an Irish citizen I suppose.
Still nothing official as yet so lots of speculation floating around as is the norm in this sort of stuff.
We’ll know soon enough no doubt who exactly he is.
Shocking news let’s hope the mother and those kids and that copper who was seriously injured all recover must have been a terrible ordeal.
But you blamed it on him just being a nutter so care to add anymore?Last night

All the same these foreigners.
I'm saying social media is speculating about nationality but the police haven't said anything. Like you, let's wait and see. Last night the police said it was a domestic.But you blamed it on him just being a nutter so care to add anymore?
So by that I’m assuming you are saying he’s not an immigrant then?

Regardless, there's no excuse for the wreckage last night.
One of the likeable Oirish or the sort 'we' don't like?Police now saying he's an Irish man in his 40s.
Yep, especially single males and you got that at both ends.Not in the old days, it was special branch with trench coats on at every port looking pretty menacing.
You should be an expert on this sort of stuff. You tell enough war stories.I’m amazed the ‘far right’ we’re able to mobilise 500 onto the Dublin streets in short order. Takes some doing that. Guess we must assume the left don’t care. Or is that a code for the white disempowered class?
