Fianna Fáil's James Lawless is calling for a serious conviction for those found guilty of deliberating trying to spread Covid-19.

Image: Shutterstock/Aleksandr Kalinin Image: Shutterstock/Aleksandr Kalinin A DUBLIN WOMAN has said she was purposefully coughed and spat on by two young boys while out walking in Dún Laoghaire yesterday evening.

Cullen said she was on her usual walk along Dún Laoghaire harbour’s west pier when she noticed two young boys walking toward her. Cullen said she was in shock but had heard about other, similar incidents mentioned on the radio, so she wanted to call them out. “I kind of had held together at that point, but I have to say I disintegrated after. I was just so upset.”

We have to get very tough on this. We have already heard of one instance of a person who tested positive for COVID-19 deliberately coughing at a frontline health worker – there can be zero tolerance for this. Lawless said it is “deeply frustrating” that a tiny minority are not following public health guidelines but warned: “let there be no doubt, they will not get away with it”.

Bloody Sickening The Covid Challenge is it? I'd run after them and kick the 💩out of them. Probably break a 💅nail though 😂and they do hurt when they're your own.. 💅Nails that is ,not kids.

This is absolutely horrible in what universe would this ever be ok?

Disgusting

Do them for attempted manslaughter

Grab them and fling them into the water 🤬🤬

A good smack from a birch across their hands & across there arse.. they wouldn’t do it again.. toe rags. Bit of Lugs Brannigan wouldn’t go a miss

Enfield Council in London fines people for spitting in the street. I'm all for this it's truly disgusting 😭 Time for Ireland to follow.

Find them. Arrest them. Charge them.

Lock the little feckers up an throw away the key!

This is the 2nd incident of this happening in 2 nights on the pier 😡

Lock them up

A conviction, having to go to court a year down the line. Can people get real. A monatery fine, useless. As a society, we're soft. We deserve what we get. What garda would risk his/her job giving them instant justice. Unless that changes we're banjaxed.

It's terrorism! Treat it as such! Don't agree? Ask the doctors and nurses on the frontline!

No, put make them clean toilets, floors, kitchens in hospitals and care-facilities...

Great idea. Arrest Simon Harris and Michael o Leary first.

Some hope, our judges are just shite and don't care about the victims of crime. Our minister is just as bad. Their is always some crsp excuse made to excuse these scumbags when they should be just kicked and locked in a cage for a nice while.

Lawless?

Deliberately?

Oh for God sake,Hardly a major issue
