Leitrim...

h.bolla

So it seems 'Leitrim' is on the NSA's list of keywords that makes them want to start snooping on your Internet activity. I always knew there was something funny going on up in that place.

Appears to be true. Come down from the mountain, Osama.

Probably part of a sub-list of places that don't exist :pac:

It pops up a lot when terrorists send messages to each other like : "We'll bomb this place so badly that when it's over, people will think they've ended up in Leitrim!"

I can confirm that it doesn't exist. Once us Letrimarians cross over the border, we are transported to a parallel universe which is ruled by sheep and a talking wardrobe.

However, Garth Brooks is playing 5 shows here instead of in Dublin. Which is nice.:pac:

I heard Edward Snowden is playing midfield for Melvin Gaels in Leitrim.

He rides Shergar to training apparently.

They're from Roscommon. We're like north and South Korea, Roscommon and Leitrim, completely different.

"Because that's still how Irish Leitrim people are seen, as twinkly-eyed ****ers with a pig under their arm, high-stepping it around the world, going 'I'll paint your house now, but watch out, I might steal the ladder later, ohohoho!' Which is only half true!"

I'd imagine its more got to do with the Canadian spying activities that happen here ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CFS_Leitrim

Came across this list. Surprisingly absent are other places such as Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan. Or the term al Qaeda.

Leitrim is a county and town in Ireland as well as a town and obscure military base in Canada. The connection between Irish Leitrim and terrorism is remote: an IRA incident involving the kidnapping of Don Tidy lead to a shootout in Ballinamore in the mid 1980s. Now, this type of thing happened in all over Ireland then: afterall, Dessie O'Hare the Border Fox was involved in shootouts with the Gardai as far South as Kilkenny. You can't just pick out Leitrim. Leitrim actually is the county with the lowest levels of crime today and then too and is the direct opposite to a terrorist hellhole. So, I would say Leitrim has to refer to the Canadian base as a lot of military bases are on the list.

There is a conspiracy that instead of fertiliser being spread in Leitrim, its chemtrails meant to sedate and dumb down the population.

Or at least thats their excuse:P

Or in case some lads in black suits and sunglasses are knocking on your door in the morning.

I originally thought they included Leitrim due to the high number of victims of IRA murders who are supposed to be buried there. A sparse county population wise, it's the perfect location for concealing remains. Shergar is also said to have been disposed of in the county.

Now that I see it's also a military base in Canada, that is more likely to be the reason why it's included on this list.
