    It's wanton vandalism but they're over-selling the outrage a bit.

    They put too much gravitas in their statues and trinkets anyway.

    There’s full cctv coverage around the town so it’ll not be hard to find the person who carried this out. It’s not the style of local youths either in the town. As a resident Thurles man, the level of vandalism and crime had dropped considerably in recent years.

    Sounds like the result of too many Sherries.

    Why would you dive straight in with blaming the foreigners?

    Whoy is it not being reported as a hate crime? If it was against any other religion in the country it would be headlines.

    If a drunk Jew broke a statue in the local synagogue it would most certainly not be a hate crime or headline news.

    Because they're an organisation that facilitated and covered up egregious abuse of children.

    They're too soft to stand up for themselves.

    Most of you here are Catholic.

    You can never leave the Church after you're Confirmed.


    It's sad to to see this apathy. When you're dying on your death bed you'll be repenting and praying to all the Saints.


    Believe me I've seen it first hand with family members.

    The choices people make on their deathbed shouldn't really be a reflection of their commitment to anything as they're literally dying...... I'd probably pray to a toaster if I was dying or in pain and I thought it might help.
