    So much wrong about this!
    Chance of encountering a Guard on foot in the city is next to zero.
    The Beat is now done exclusively from a seated position in their Hyundai i40s.
    Gardai Suíochána.

    Nope, don’t remember. In my town if you had an issue you went to the cop shop (in the next town).

        Of course I’m from Dublin. My town is Palmerstown and the copshop is in Ballyfermot. Lovely bunch o’ lads there too.

    Remember when the Guards used to support a community by walking around in it? no, not in my 40 years. They were always authoritarian little Hitlers. But I remember them being tall culches in the 80’s. Now you have below average height fellas with chips on their shoulders and guns to make up for their inadequacies . Whatever could go wrong???

    Tune in next week when there’s no van and Phibsboro Whinger…..eh Person is appalled “Remember when there used to be a Community Support Van here?”.
    De Gardaí, damned if ya do, damned if ya don’t.

      Gardai unlikely to be damned for doing a bit of policing rather than PR from their chip van
