Re. the gang rape, the rapists will walk free. Remember the cast where the rapist rape a woman in her home. Admitted it in court and the judge thought he was a good lad for owning up to the crime, so he gave him a suspended sentence. On the way home the rapist threw a cigarette at his victim at the train station, was brought back to court and was jailed for 2 yrs. NOT FOR RAPE , FOR THROWING A CIGARETTE AT THE. NOW WHO ARE THESE MAD STUPID JUDGES. WHY ARE THEY NOT JAILED FOR FLOUTING THE LAWS OF OUR COUNTRY. EQUAL RIGHTS. WHAT A JOKE.
Where is the original report of this? I have seen nothing about such an assault in the Irish papers.
awoken32, can you provide any links to the story of the African immigrant stabbing three Irish women? I would like to read it.
Would not have happened in a Socialist Republican or Irish Communist Society ! Better that Irish Boy`s should grow up to be Unrepentant Bomb Throwing Separatists, than This !
''Allegedly''. Read the heading. This was never proven.
...meow...(...hopefully the young woman is ok and the perpetrators of this terrible crime are arrested...)
Any connection between this and the recent non-indigenous sex gang horror in the north of England?
Gang rape is the in thing. It is a program totally designed to destroy the spirit of females.Gang rape is portrayed in movies as is the cannibalism- both are predator programming.
horace Ireland has once of the worst sexual assault rates in the western world. A 2002 study "Sexual Abuse and Violence in Ireland" presented statistics that 42% of Irish women experienced sexual assault during their lifetimes. It also found disclosure of these incidents to authorities was low, and conviction rates to be below 1%." True, victims do not generally report sexual abuse because they know from others that they will be made to relive the torture over and over for Gardai, lawyers, barristers, expert witnesses, court. In court, if it gets that far, they will be ripped apart as any solicitor will tell you. She will be blamed of course as generally we are great at blaming the victims in Eire
Angry 'paddy', I LOVE kayaking! Thanks for noticing! Horace, that 'study' is from 10 years ago! Priests were still raping kids back then so maybe thats where your 'stats' come from.

Bythebay...no comment? What, no Americans involved? LOL.
RocknReel: "-The Irish Tourist Board do certainly NOT portray Ireland as a Land of Leprauchans drinking Stout, or in what decade were you last on Irish " Here's an example of the stupidity of some Irish. This fool is telling an American that he, the American doesn't know how Ireland is advertized in the US. What an utter dope you are, RocknReel. How the hell do you know how Ireland is markeeted here? Can you even read? I described how Ireland is marketed in the US, how would a dumbell like you squatting in some Irish pub know whether I am right or wrong? I bet you've never been outside Ireland except to go to some English ballpark and scream for Manchester or Southampton. Moron.
IrelandNorth, I dont believe all I read but i believe my family when I hear about relatives who were abused by priests and when I watch interviews with people from the 1 in 4 group or when I hear stats from the rape crisis centre. It wasnt a miniscule minority of priests either, it was ENDEMIC in the priesthood.
GeorgeDillon! You're right to a point. But don't do a pendulum swing by going to the other extreme. We're no worse or better than any other liberal democratic open market dominated by accountants posing as politicians. ciaradexy! "Priests haven't been raping children for decades here ...", even if an over-reported miniscule minority may have been over the millenia. It's merely sensationalist press marketing a product called "news", whilst engaging in a spot of historical revisionsism and designer propaganda. As my dear mother used to say, (Lord rest her):"Don't believe all you hear, and even less of what you read. Newspaper don't refuse ink."
