It's enough to make you paranoid. A football match at two in the morning, outside your front door. It was apparently a ten a side. I live in the next street and wondered what the noise was. The cops came and had a bit of a laugh, some "Good Craic". It's ripping the arse out of it.
The "students" are pushing it and pushing it and pushing it. They will not stop. The cops are legitimising their mayhem. They're even allowed to assault residents now. As for us, we're non-persons to them. Is it any wonder some people push back?

Food for thought for us residents still surviving in the holylands:
Are we not too long in the jungle to get f**ked by the monkeys?
I mean seriously, this area came through the worst of the troubles without suffering the social deconstruction that has been caused by a bunch of anti-social hillbillies
Sectarian strife? Near Civil war? Yep the holylands came through it all without being tainted by sectarianism...
Having lived here for 20 odd years the first real sectarianism i've seen is by the "designer republican brigade" giving it a few lines of "Come out you black and tans..." before puking their ring up
COME ON RESIDENTS... WE CAN LIFT OUR GAME PLAN!
aggression towards students is never going to finish this "war". lifting your game plan is simply going to irritate more people and make the situation worse, resulting in retaliation that will make the holy lands harder for everyone to live in, students and residents alike.
i also resent how students are all tarred with the same brush within all your blogs. small-mindedness, on my part, could also be considered if i decided to believe all residents were as aggressive and abusive as some of those i have met when i have been perfectly sober, making no nuisance of myself, yet receiving abuse that was undoubtably uncalled for!!!
Up the RA
My parents pay my fees, your fees, and the cost of your solicitor also. You are a waste of space.
Get a job! And then get a life!
