We've had this dozens of times and I've heard it from dozens of families.
And to that security guard, I feel so grateful that you've come on and you've tried to really explain and give everybody a good insight into how this system works and how the system has failed and broken and failing the public.
and serving the perpetrators.
So I've been, like, I've studied and lived in Dublin.
I now live in Monaghan, but I would travel to Dublin, down to Dublin a couple of times a year or whatever, do a bit of shopping with some of my kids, or usually to go to gigs, go down to a few metal gigs in Dublin.
I brought my daughter, who at the time was 15, she's now turning 17, and we were on a platform, and it was just kind of just off Henry Street, down around that direction, and
We were looking for some Asian markets for her to buy some ethnic food so we could come home and learn.
You know, a whole day of experience surrounded by a group of these, what my ones call the Yuppa Boys.
And I could feel them.
Myself and my daughter would be quite perceptive of situations.
We're good at reading things a mile off.
We're very instinctual and I'm very grateful for that.
These lads came around.
Look, they're the same as their next bunch and the next bunch and the next bunch.
But what they did was...
Not nearly as bad as what those ladies have had to experience in her 16-year-old and the things that were recommended that her 16-year-old did, but I'll get back to that.
Those lads surrounded us and what had happened was, obviously one or two, they liked the look of us, so they started making sexual remarks and...
They seemed that I wasn't putting up with it.
I was staring ahead.
So they came over towards my daughter, who was very, very, firstly, entitled to stand on that platform as anybody else.
