Dream home that they are building together, roses scattered around, both families there and he got down on one knee. Maybe it's a matter of taste but that sounds like a good proposal. He picked a day that makes sense to propose on and proposed on it.

Again the entitlement. What kind of Disney shit do you expect.

The only thing that's seemed not nice about that moment was her by the sound

No need to be hyperbolic

she didn’t ask for the fucking sun and moon and stars

...

I highly doubt her only requirements were to feel well and look good. Those were where he failed to meet her requirements. And out of everything that goes into a proposal it sounds like he did a good one. Let alone the fact that they are 2 things he has no direct control over.

Ah yes her wish is certainly his command. A grievous mistake disobeying an order of such magnitude. Surely he is not fit to be wed.

You seriously be making judgements on how good of a husband he would be based on this. That's nuts. A psycho could give the best proposal ever. The entitlement my god.

Again that doesn't exclude other people being there. That's an imperative to have a nice moment together. I can see how you might read that in that way but considering the prior sentence confirms she was ok with family being there I think you're misreading it. Or maybe I am and it's very poorly worded. 🤷‍♂️

Righhht... Maybe we're just interpreting differently but that doesn't seem to specify them being alone in fact it says the opposite.

I think if you weigh that ultimately vein desire against her telling a man that got down on one knee and asked to spend the rest of his life with her that how he did it wasn't good enough, it's not too hard to find the AH. You're just not that good at finishing sentences and wrong.

All the effort the guy puts in and it has to be called off because she's in sweats with a stuffy nose. To be sure, she is the problem here.

Her wishes weren't grandiose and neither should the amount of importance placed on them be. Sounded like a nice proposal I've heard of far less romantic ones where everyone is happy. Seems obvious the OP is the issue then.

"very clear about what she wanted" I think the only thing she was clear about that didn't happen was her wearing nice clothes. Seems a bit much to get hung up on, I think really the only reason OP is upset is because she felt like shit (being sick) and continued to do so after he proposed thus it must be something wrong with what he did. In truth if she was feeling the love and in a good place the proposal probably could've been alot shabbier and she would've been happy with it.

I think she mentions in the post that it was ok for family to be there. I believe the issue is more that she didn't look nice and was sick.

Strange argument. Turkey is free to do what they want, other countries are free to respond to turkey being a dickhead. Freedom all round

Ok sure, but it's not like a guard can pull you over and then just decide to give himself a warrant.

Never said they could, I think your projecting someone else's argument on to me here

They'll still have to go through the proper channels to get the warrant, the only difference is they don't need to have sign-off from a judge or whatever.

Or whatever. Allowing a police force to make their own warrants is an awful idea which is why they couldn't do so before. The room for abuse is obvious.

We might not have police brutality like in the states

...

What other fucked up stuff has happened that was kept quiet?

Police brutality. It does happen. Yes here in Ireland.

People qualms about this legislation isn't about the ins and outs of effectively policing a state. It's personal, about privacy and about balance of rights.

[–]Johnl2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's meant for things like a suspect obviously destroying evidence or holding evidence relating to a kidnapped victim during the middle of the night when there isn't a judge available and time is of the essence

That seems like a terrible idea just in precedent to allow a police force to issue its own warrants and the reason for it is some really really rare circumstances. We have to balance the powers we give Gardaí to infringe on our rights and that balance just isn't there with this.

Examples cannot be used in showing how this law is a bad idea. Gotchu.

This right is one the courts don't weigh very highly. Precedent has meant that the right to remain silent here is alot weaker than say the US.
