On behalf of my romanian wife, two half-irish half-romanian daughters and well-educated, well-off extended romanian family it would be nice if you wouldn't introduce your latent racism into the debate. You could try approaching the girl in question and asking her to expose her posterior (whereupon most good romanians have an image of their passport and national flag tatooed) so that, indeed, you may 'see' and be 'sure'.Every morning I see the same young girl (looks romanian, can't see for sure if she is)

Probably the girl in question is of the Rrom ethnicity in which case she may well hold a romanian passport but equally might hold one from Slovakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Poland, Russia, Ukraine, Albania or a host of other european countries.
This morning she was just coming out of Insomnia with a take away coffee and making her way up to her usual spot. Nice to see she can afford the ol' latte in the mornings.
Maybe he already has checked her tats.You could try approaching the girl in question and asking her to expose her posterior (whereupon most good romanians have an image of their passport and national flag tatooed) so that, indeed, you may 'see' and be 'sure'.
I'm wary of opening a can of worms here but how is he being racist? Did he insult the Roma community? Not that I can see. Did he make unfounded assumptions about the Roma community? Not that I can see. For information purposes he simply stated that the beggar in question may be Romanian. The fact remains that there is a huge presence of Romanian beggars on Irish streets, as well as Irish and other nationalities, this can be seen by any person walking down any street in Ireland.
So it is an offence to be out of your head on alcohol in public.
Doesnt seem like thats a law thats enforced either - ever seen city centre at pub or nightclub closing times? When Copperface Jacks lets out - there are drunks all over the street right outside the Harcourt St Garda Station.
Why do people give money to beggers? If people stopped giving begging would stop. From my limited observation it is young people who tend to give the most, maybe older people are less likely to feel guilty if they don't

What a non-lazy begger then?
