    Bernard has spent his time publicly slagging off pavee Point (see Below)
    Talk about cutting of his nose to spite his face...

    Bernard's off on it again, claiming Pavee point and other traveller organsiations don't represent him and are 'killing travellers'
    Should the National Traveller organisations after almost 20 years of requesting meetings.
    In person, email, phone calls, social media, videos, contacted the "Traveller Mediation Service" and still they wont meet. All fellow Traveler activists and especially the "rebels" activists, you no longer can hide knowing what NGOs have been doing to the very same people that you take si such pride in defending.

    Traveller Pride Awards has becom the Freakshow of Irish Travellers for the wider Settled Community. Its a Freakshow for Irish State officials, its Freakshow for the Settled of people in the organisations getting paid to mock Travellers.

    Pavee Point, The Irish Traveller Movement and others. Lets sit down and talk, i know that i will never let this go and from day one till the day that i die that these organisations change their ways and stop killing Travellers.

    If you think that's Gibberish, check this out:
    "Open letter to the leader of the Country, Irish Government, elected representatives, political candidates and all those who believe in democracy".

    I am calling on all political candidates, including all political parties and including the Government of Ireland. For freedom of political aspirations, that Irish we Irelands Travellers be included in real democracy of our own country that respects differences. That each County Council, in Ireland, would co-op an Traveller onto each Council and work together for the betterment of all community's. This is about restoring both our historical and the lack of political rights. That we can build better communities out of equality, and together, going forward we become one Civilization.

    I, its pointless trying to hide it, i would be anti FG political party, its been like that for many years now (no need to take personal), much the same goes for the FF political party and to be honest about it, im probably anti most political parties in Ireland. Butt differently FG, you be at the very the top. But i am also willing to end my crusade in the name of democracy for democracy. The Irish Government are been called out to support democracy. Our community's have both a complex and historical relationship, its time that we all learned to work with each other and together. No longer against each other, no more hiding behind our colonial past and creating a better future for people.

    Should this act of decency and of course' not failing to mention about upholding the values of democracy. This co-opting that gives our community (Irish Travellers) our own internal election process, our style selection and our world view. We will be sending the best people forward and bringing our own style democracy for best outcomes for all of our shared Society.

    Looking to your reply.

    Scum

    They've taken the dog away and no arrests.

    This country is a ****ing joke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,967 ✭✭✭Deebles McBeebles


    Happily I can't view FB on the old work computer because I've already seen a dog almost get run over today and that would take the cake altogether.

    Someone posted it on the Peter Casey thread. Think the person who posted had no joy with the Guards so sent the video to limerick animal welfare. They are just a voluntary organisation but loads of people commenting rang either the ispca helpline (who told them to ring limerick Garda stn) or directly rang the station.

    Gardaí have power to seize dog and a volunteer from the animal shelter went there too and took dog to vets. I can’t understand, if they had power to seize animal why they didn’t take all animals? Such a gorgeous dog too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭Jerichoholic


    They could easily just go in and ask to see the dog licenses. There is no way on earth they have any, then just take them all.

    But that would be discrimination or some nonsense.
