    Gerry Adams is suspected of being a high ranking member of an organization that murdered countless people.
    He has insane left wing Marxist views.
    He admits he likes to jump naked on a trampoline with his poor dog.
    Many suspect him of really being a planted British agent.

    All of the above and people still vote for him.

    He types one word on social media and only then is there outrage.:rolleyes:

    Well, it was pretty dumb. But probably it's happening partly because he's suspected of being a high ranking member of an organization that murdered countless people, he doesn't seem to be gettable on that grounds so...

    Hey, Al Capone was got on tax evasion!

    That's not the point and you know it.
    For all this man is up to his neck in and people vote for him.
    One word and there is outrage.

    What happened to the idea that killing people is a lot worse then calling somebody a name?

    Point A: Most people don't like his history, but he doesn't seem to be arrestable on what the dogs in the street know (or are pretty damn suspicious of).

    Point B: It was a dumb thing to write anyway and he got called on it. He wasn't exactly dragged through the streets to the gallows on a hurdle or anything.

    Point C: I don't know who votes for that fella, but I don't think they're particularly sensible for it.

    Who was outraged?
    The media reported an ill advised comment he made on Twitter because they knew it would sell papers.
    I discussed this with a friend, who happens to be black and he said he'd no issue with what Adams said.
    He drew an ill advised comparison between African American struggle for civil rights in America and the Nationalists struggle for civil rights in NI.
    If you actually pick away at what he said there's nothing to be outraged about and that's how the majority of people reacted.

    Just to add on the point in bold I mean for people who know what he is how could I be shocked or outraged that he said a word?

    I mean is like getting outraged for finding out that Jeffrey Dahmer had unpaid parking tickets or something.

    Gerry Adams is often publicly criticised (by some) for his suspected IRA past.

    Gerry Adams was publicly criticised (by some) for an incredibly stupid tweet, which people have largely stopped talking about.

    How is this "PC gone mad" exactly?

    My PC went mad recently, I just rebooted and it was grand.

    Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams has revealed that when he’s not too busy dealing with political issues, he loves nothing more than a spot of naked trampolining with his dog.

    Speaking on Irish radio station Newstalk, Adams said he likes to partake in the unusual hobby for ‘the joy of it’, after he mentioned it on his Twitter account.

    It's lucky for him that dog can't talk.

    I thought that was chuck norris

    The nude trampolining is an image I didn't need to have before sleep. Thanks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,202 ✭✭✭keeponhurling


    The n-comment was quite recent, so has been reported recently.

    The other stuff from the past has been extensively reported in the past

    If you want to read about the same "news" about Gerry's past every week, I would recommend the Independent as a suitable paper for you to get your news

    The outrage isn't that he declared himself a n****r. It's that everyone knows he's a house n****r :mad:

    It's lucky for him that dog can't talk.

    Along with all the other dogs on the street.

    Yeah nobody ever had a problem with Gerry Adams before this alright.

    I don't mind people referring to PC morons or SJW's when appropriate to debate. But these 'PC gone mad' threads are just both boring and tiring at this stage. The vast majority of people with a bit of backbone take no notice of these professional whinos OP. Relax.

    Hundreds of people die every year in Irish hospitals that are left underinvested in by FF/FG/Lab to try to get people to go into private healthcare.

    Meanwhile the same toerags milk the state with their grotesque salaries, perks and pensions.

    But let's not discuss any of that.

    As somebody posted recently "Stick and stones may break my bones but words will leave deep psychological scars that will never heal". *
