    So if they sent former Provos from Dundalk that would be ok?
    Did you not read 'ordinary, decent'.
    No way would that be ok. Probably a little better because they are from this country but still unacceptable to me.

    I've already answered your question by saying that they should send ordinary, decent people from the Republic of Ireland to do the eviction.
    This is called shifting the goalposts.

    Why do Irish people have to carry out the evictions?

    Since it's pretty clear what kind of animal scumbags have opposed these evictions, it seems to me to be a better idea to get foreigners to do it. Their personal safety is less likely to be placed at risk by these animals.

    Well that is clearly not true, isn't it?

    The affect that George Soros and his acolytes are having on Irish society make what he was doing in his youth relevant here . I fear that his activities then have turned him into what he is today .

    Maybe brush up on you history of Ireland. One of these guys made it clear he was British. The British invaded Ireland and took over all the land many years. Many people are still upset by this.
    If you don't understand this then you haven't a clue.
    Personally I don't have this hate for the British. My issue is that thugs were sent to do the job.

    Or the response was so extreme on the first place because these guys were used?

    Why does it matter, unless you're a racist bigot of course?

    Well I suppose what he means is they can't target their family easily because they are outside the state. I mean look at what a contributor said earlier in this thread. He stated the facts on a facebook post and it resulted in a messaged threat to him and his family with a picture of his house. That was just for expressing his opinion backed up with the facts of the case. The mind boggles at the deluded mentality of people who act in this manner.

    If they sent Irish born honest, decent black men to do the job I wouldn't have a problem with it.
    There goes your racism theory.
    If it's bigoted to be anti-thugs then call me a bigot all day everyday.

    I'd assure you they could get the addresses if they wanted to.

    I wonder, do the Gardaí have the names of the people that are responsible for animal cruelty, ( the dogs killed) and the assaults on the people that ended up in the hospital,

    And if so.
    Are they are the company that sent them to the home to evict going to pay a penalty

    It's a valid point. Only for the fact they were legally contracted as a business by another business to remove squatters from their property. I know for a fact if there was a squatter in my house, I'd turf him out. Same principle. Whether they were thugs or not, they were there in a legally contracted working capacity.

    And they were certainly no more thuggish than the lads that attacked them with baseball bats and killed a dog.

    Of course, had your man paid his taxes, his mortgage and his business partners, none of this would have happened. Hell, even if he engaged with them and came up with some sort of payment plan, it wouldn't have happened.

    There is going to be a lot of amnesia around Strokestown and its not just the boys that got the bangs on the head .

    Bringing down loyalist henchmen to evict old people from their home a couple of weeks before Christmas is a step too far. No sympathy for them.

    Only one group attacked anyone and burned out cars. The other group were only there to remove people from the banks house. The people had the option to walk out themselves with no one near them.

    There's only so long you can let adults take the piss and act like children before you throw them out.

    What would you do with a 10 year old child if he refused to leave his room and go to school? Shove notes under his door begging him to come out until he's 18?

    Quality revisionism! - so it was the IRAs "spit at a Brit" campaign that led to the Black and Tans being imported to Ireland. Never knew about that!

    IRA didnt exist in 1916? :confused:

    Revisionism how are ye

    Strange analogy. :confused:

    Oh I travel across that border on a weekly basis (hopefully the rubbish in Westminster doesn't change this!).

    TBH I would have said that the contracted company didn't consider this sort of response either or the bank who hired them. It's interesting to see what happens now. How will this effect future evictions? Evictions are not going to stop, if anything they will accelerate as there are a loads of bad loans still out there. It is in no ones interest in this country to allow bad loans fester on for years and as unpalatable as it is they have to be dealt with.

    So the actions are irrelevant, the country on their passport males them thugs?

    Since if some guy owes you money you would be ok with sending thugs to retrieve it?

    Anger at thugs from Northern Ireland being brought down here to evict someone.
    No way should thugs have any involvement.

    To be fair becoming a goon for hire isn't exactly the type of job an engineering grad usually applies for. Of course it's going to be thugs.

    First they came for the socialists...

    Many people need to grow up and realise they live in 2018. Which involves paying back their fellow citizens and the Belgians they borrowed money from.

    But sure you go ahead and keep deflecting and going on about " da brits" if that's what helps you with your issues.

    Get the Gardaí to do it

    They have nothing else to do

    Need to get them off the roads giving out tickets for tax and nct

    A private company can do that

    How do you know that ordinary, decent people wouldn't be interested in the job?
    Did you ever think that somebody mightnb capable of getting them out without resorting to using thugs?
