I don’t feel ashamed for having an opinion that ‘maybe’ there is a disproportionate amount of violent crime committed by foreigners compared to their overall population in the total based on recent crimes reported in media. Can anyone prove that wrong?
The murder is shocking and i feel so bad for the family and tullamore. Whoever did the crime I hope he gets the absolute sh*t beat out of him when he gets to prison. I apologise in advance for jumping to the conclusion it was a man perpetrator and not leaving door open that it may have been a woman for all YBIG PC police.

You made that point though, so surely the onus is on you to prove your statement right?
Sickening to think that murderer is still out there. As for the bail debate on previous pages; being granted bail when you're arrested for violent offences would be laughable if it wasn't so serious.

Not by me. I constantly said it 'appears' and it 'looks like' while making points and sticking up for my view that people have just sh*t on, which they entitled to, but also haven't provided any evidence that my point of view is wrong. So i will leave it there on that whole argument. |

Crazy that the guards appeared so sure they had their man and they released him and eliminated him.
Maybe he was identified by the witnesses but they probably in shock and made a mistake. Killer at large is now the big worry!

Sorry, I should have said 'repeatedly convicted'. But even at that I think that there may be constitutional issues with laws that might be created in limiting bail in that regard. Also, I'm not sure how I feel about legislature stepping into the shoes of the public to appease what is a populist sentiment. Government's tend to run with a "law and order" mantra, and in countries where law is an issue of the populist whim, the results are bad (America being a prime example, where at levels Judges are elected). I suppose the question is what about the people who are ultimately vindicated in court, and released? Inherently, is there a right to take away somebody's right to liberty as they await trial. That is not to say there are not people who commit crimes while on bail. There is no question that the decision to grant bail was wrong. But by comparison, the vast majority await bail, and turn up for trial. Enough evidence to proceed with prosecution is a world of difference to sufficient evidence to convict.

Few reports saying he was first on the scene to assist her and that's why they were so certain it was him. Brutal situation just getting a whole lot worse - the killer has had nearly 48 hours to flee at this point which is obviously very worrying.

if this was in the 80s an innocent man would have been charged with this crime (i'm aware he's no angel but that's beyond the point) and be remanded in custody this morning with the real killer still on the loose.

First time poster... long term lurker!! Young (ish) female football fanatic and I really just felt compelled to comment on this particular topic! There’s
been some questionable conversations in the past on this forum regarding women
that have deterred me from posting. Users posting pictures of potential dates
and voting on who should have their back doors smashed in, who’s a ditch pig,
if someone’s lips mean they’ll give good blow jobs, rusty sheriffs badges etc
etc.. At times I’ve found the comments stomach churning and degrading. However,
I’m not naïve enough to think that women don’t objectify men. I’ve been at hen
parties where male bystanders have had their personal space invaded, their
privates groped and mauled. Now some of those men may have actually enjoyed the
experience!! but it still doesn’t make it right. Similarly we had an older lady
who worked in our office who preyed on the younger men and she would literally find
any excuse to touch them or initiate some form of contact and the gents in
question were clearly uncomfortable and commented regularly on her inappropriate
behaviour. Having said all that unfortunately the statistics clearly demonstrate
that its not women repeatedly killing men in this country – it’s the opposite.
Can anyone tell me of a case where a man went running in broad daylight, in an
area named after another man who went missing many moons beforehand in a
similar incident? No. I think its time that we ALL need to understand and realise
that there is a connection between these minor acts of misogyny – comments,
jokes, banter – and acts of violence. These acts contribute to a culture which dehumanises
women and ultimately leads to us to be seen as objects. If anything else this senseless murder has thought me, is
that I need to spend more time educating my Son about respect and attitudes and
not just to focus on teaching my daughters about safe times and areas to walk in
or mechanisms to deal with unwanted attention. It
really doesn’t matter what nationality or ethnic background the perpetrator is
from. Does that make a difference to the Murphy family? No it certainly
does not. Ultimately, another women has lost her life prematurely.

Apologies for the incredibly long winded first post, as I mentioned I just felt the conversation needed a female perspective

When I was younger I was talking to an older man who I respected, and still do, about being physically assaulted by a girl, how demeaning it was to stand there and let her hit me repeatedly, to the point where I had to get staples in my head. Take into account this was a formal situation in a cafe. Not a social situation.
He s*****red. Now I understand if my making jocular comments about the female form precludes me from having an opinion about things like this - and that's fair enough! - but I think that goes to show the attitude some guys have about being physically or sexually assaulted by women. I wasn't a confident lad when I was younger at all and I've had women grope my testicles, arse, and one who literally jumped on my lap out of nowhere and started kissing me. I've even had a much older female relative squeeze my arse at my cousin's wedding! I even remember the first time I had a woman invade my personal space when I was a small child traveling on a bus. I've blocked most of it out but she sat beside me, kept scooching closer to me as I tried to squirm away, and groped me and squeezed me repeatedly. And to all the lads for whom being groped by a woman sounds like the dream, this last woman was elderly, morbidly obese, and smelled bad. Just thought I'd share some of my experiences and why I roll my eyes at some of the stuff being trotted out in the media these days. And before anyone jumps at me, yes I do think men need to do better, but the issue isn't as linear as some people portray it to be.

Jaysus, you’ve had a tough run HH, battered by cops, repeatedly groped and kissed by women and even molested as a kid by a relative, thats before the crashes you were involved in.
