Dissident Republican March - who supports these malcontents?

JohnnyFlash

Spotted this video on Twitter. It's a humourous take on a dissident republican march that was taking place in Sallins today. What was the march about, and who supports these losers? Have they any sort of support around here, and what's their objectives? Most of them look like the only place they march is into the chipper 7 days a week.

Why is it everytime I see a march like this I always hear the Bunny Hill music in my head

Locals who witnessed the so-called political wing of the New IRA marching through their area have said it is "not wanted" in the community.
Armed detectives monitored around 200 members of Saor- adh as they marched through Sallins, Co Kildare, for a Wolfe Tone commemoration at Bodenstown cemetery yesterday.

Sallins Branch of the Madness Fan Club is a classic! He deserves an award.


And as for the cabaret artists, it's marching season up North, so if the orang-e-utans can do it, then why shouldn't the black and white minstrels ape them?

Fantasists and Walter Mitty types who always live far far far away from any consequences to marching in black berets and sunglasses.
Thank God we live in a country where anyone can march under any flag.
The alternative is too horrible to imagine.
Mostly harmless creatures who would cry and run back to their bedroom in mammas house if challenged about their aims.

The people and bands up north are not marching in paramilitary style uniforms to honour or in support of modern, present day terrorist threats, that is the difference.

Stop moaning ffs

They just have common aims and some common membership.

None of the people at the 12th festivals in NI shot the journalist in Derry, or shot at police lines there.

A neat summary. There are probably many people going to parades, and organising parades, who have nothing to do with loyalist paramilitaries and believe their support has nothing to do with them. But there are plenty who are members of paramilitary groups, and hang paramilitery flags around NI at this time of year.

As for the first video, putting it to Madness music was hilarious and apt

It just goes to show a huge amount of people in N Ireland would be hugely opposed to being under the rule of the majority in the 26 counties, and hard to blame them.
There will be no United Ireland in our lifetime. Just as well.

Some are.

You love the British part of Ireland from a distance, maybe move to a loyalist area and join in?

Indeed. Who would want to live with or absorb these fanatics. Nevertheless we must retain our sympathy for the Irish people living in that hellscape.

Not all of them. There are good and bad people of all nationalities living everywhere.

It was Republicans who shot at police lines. It was their political wing who marched here in this jurisdiction recently?

No, the Orange-u-Tans just burn children, drive cars into civilians and celebrate their mates murdering civilians.

Misunderstood "culture"?

I understand it, and understand they are degenerates.

Im not getting your point, are you saying that Republicans shoot at people and Loyalists don't?

Because the reality is that both sides shoot at people and are enabled by those who only ever blame the other side for doing things that they excuse from their own side.

On another point, why aren't FG showing up at these marches considering they are turning up at orange halls lately?

The marchers here at the dissident March dressed as paramilitaries would arguably be closer bedfellows to the people who done the last 3 or 4 attacks on police / prison officers than any of the people in the 12th parades.

The irony is many western governments (and citizens) supported far worse people in Syria etc

So what is your point? The dissidents are not too bad because there were worse people in Syria?

And lets not start on "celebrate their mates murdering civilians"

You still do not get it. Paramilitaries (on both sides) bad.
People who condemn the paramilitaries: good.

You think they would learn how to march properly at least. Any video I've ever seen of dissidents marching they all march like robots. Imagine these guys being in power.

That kind of depends on what age you are and when you think you're going to pass die.

Kind of makes a cod of the argument we have heard from a few posters here.

'We don't want to be importing themuns in a UI' or the north is not OUR problem'.

It is our problem and it is here.

It is not our problem to spend billions of borrowed money on annually , and it is up there, not here.
