Hunger and dirt,1988-1992, Dublin

 St Teresa's Gardens,1989-1992

In St Teresa's Gardens,I saw very little evidence of crime or real anti-social behaviour.

This is proof positive that a listening ear and a kind word go a long way to mitigating social problems and dismay with the police.

Whatever you may say about thugs in the Central Detective Unit such as Mr. Mercedes Paddy Burke,the Dublin Gardai realised that it was better to stay out of areas where they were not wanted,something 303 deaths and thousands of injuries have not got into the thick skulls of the ennobled 'RUC/PSNI'.
