completely agree with everything sadhbh wrote above this. One of the most poorly researched pieces of gutter journalism i've ever seen. for a supposedly respected newspaper to publish blatant ridiculous unsubstantiated allegations of theft and rape is unbelievable. every irish person who was there for the summer completely loved the place, but to suggest everyone wrecks their apartments etc is a joke. As the response above states americans seem to have little problems turning a blind eye to the rampant drug culture, drink driving, abuse of the homeless etc by american college students that is so widespread out there and writes about 19 & 20 year old irish kids enjoying themselves and pumping tens of thousands of dollars into your community for a couple of months. why don't you write an article about something like that?
