This happened to me and a friend in Dublin, we are both foreigners. My friends phone got stolen by a 13 year old kid on a bike. When we chased him we were faced with 15 of these kids. I got sucker punched from behind in my jaw, my friend was arguing with them and then 2 teenage girls came up in my face yelling " your not from here, you dont belong here, foking paki"

When i called the police they didnt come, they told me to stop chasing them and called them scumbags. THey adviced me to go to a police station to report it even though we were physically getting attacked.

I love Dublin and Irish people, however these knacker kid gangs are extremely dangerous and racist.
