How is that going to help?

Even if the rumours were verfied?

Anyone calling out Conor as a bat **** extremist??

no, i did not think so

:laugh2:

I don't agree with the protests and abusing the Garda, these people have been brought in by the government, it is not like here, they have not come in small boats, they have been flown in, many of them probably don't even want to be in Ireland so its not their fault, it is the government, they should be protesting outside the Dail, not setting fire to accommodation. I don't know why the government doesn't allow them to work, are they illegal if they are flown in :shrug:

Hopefully all the thugs are arrested and dealt with appropriately, what happened to those children does just justify all the violence, destruction and attempted murder, especially when the full story isn’t even known yet, shameful behaviour

Mmm not good, I think the Irish police have handled this really badly. Came out very confidently to say it's not terrorism when they couldn't be sure of that but at the same time they immediately slam a 'lunatic, hooligan faction' and a 'thuggish and manipulative element' before any trouble had even kicked off really. That's incredibly charged language which isn't very befitting of people trying to calm tensions

They're scumbags.

Sly News with zero evidence but one vile narrative - at it again

why?

the dramatics, the brink of what exactly, this is just thugs being thugs for the sake of it, some of the Irish would do well to remember generations of immigrants that left the country for a better life, I always find it ironic when some of them don't want immigrants, the government need to sort it out, if they are bringing people into the country the need to alllow them to work assimilate them into the country not put them up in ghettos, same here they could issue temporary visas to allow them to work, 1 million vacancies they say (UK) yet they have hotels full of immigrants who might want to fill some of these jobs

That kind of violence and destruction is not the work of ordinary hard working people

‘They’re ruining the country we love!!.. let’s burn it!!’

Violent, racist thugs that have taken the opportunity to act like violent, racist thugs

did you say that when "youths" were attacking the RUC/British army in NI day after day for years on end?

ridic to call people far right

Exactly. And Dublin has plenty of its own home grown criminals and thugs, blaming everything on foreign nationals is a bit rich.

What are you on about? Stick to the topic LT and stop trying to goad people. This schtick is getting so.old now

It’s always easier to blame other people for the state of everything than take a look at yourself and the people you elect

Trying to burn people alive? Mmmm decent ordinary people

Apolcalyptic? I dont think a bus and car on fire is that, there is alot of whipping up of hysteria though

Doesn't make them "far right" either.

Very primitive emotions get raised when children are threatened or indeed hurt. Emphasis on primitive, and it doesn't excuse the extent of the reaction, obviously.

But ascribing political positions to them, especially extreme or "far" political positions, is as Cherie said ... ridic.

Fgs, you wouldn't know what to believe anymore
