    These anti-Irish goons on the far right outside the Four Courts sicken me. This morning a friend of mine will bury her father. Due to covid restrictions the family are unable to have the comfort of a traditional funeral. Along with covid Gemma and her gang of traitors regard the abuses in Tuam as a hoax. So much for being pro life.

    Honestly, at times I wish our Gardai were tougher. Far too nice with this bunch.

    I actually don't think it's an 'our Gardai' thing, you see it in a lot of countries at the moment where the police treat far right protests with the kid gloves. Look at any covid protest and you'll see hundreds of people flouting the current rules and nothing is done

    Look the way it is, I just remove the politics, and all I see is this mouthy poopoo, and if thats how it is and i see this happening I'd just slam both their heads to the pavement and throw their phones in the river. Cry all they want, but for me its not whether or not Tuam was real (it is). To me its whether or not they piss me off. And they do.

    By the way, thanks for the passive aggressive response.

    Yup, literally "Dúirt bean liom gur ndúirt bean léi" - thanks for clarifying.

    The 5k limit applies to going for exercise only.

    There is absolutely no restriction on travelling outside your county - provided it's for an essential purpose. Buying food - including drive-thru - is covered under that.

    Yes, the Gardaí have leeway. If I live in Dun Laoghaire, the guards would be right to turn me back if I'm driving to a drive-thru in Blanch. Or even fine me. If it's the nearest drive-thru near me? Not so much.

    Agree with you on the muppets outside the Four Courts.

    Fair enough but all I was doing was relaying an anecdotal story I heard, I wasn't claiming it was for publication in Nature.

    I'm hardly going on Liveline to f&cking say it am I?!!!

    I was only saying it as I was frustrated that those pr1cks are allowed to do what they like when we have hundreds dying of a disease thats spread by human to human spread. I have full sympathy for the guards as well but cant understand why they dont do more to the likes of these.

    Does anybody know Dee's family?

    She strikes me as the sort whose sons can be regularly found outside Houston Station or the Merchants Quay clinic asking for 2 quid and shouting at people similar to themselves.

    Criminal investigations into Dublin as well as actively policing Debenhams workers too so yes there did seem to be more of an overt Policing left wing protests but not far right protests thing going on in the last year.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    It appears a bunch of reckless loons on either side of the political spectrum were subject to scrutiny

    Garda sources told The Irish Times the crowd that gathered on Monday was simply too large to disperse. But they have insisted Black Lives Matter is not the only protest group now under investigation.

    They pointed to another protest, at the Four Courts in Dublin in April, that was also allowed to unfold on the day but with a follow-up investigation now under way. And they say subsequent gatherings relating to the group involved in that protest – supporters of Gemma O’Doherty and John Waters – were also being investigated.

    If we're still in lockdown in a year, then clearly something has gone horribly wrong with either vaccination or CoVid mutated into something resistant to treatment. The bodies really will have started piling up. You snark, but given O'Doherty doesn't actually believe the pandemic is even real; not sure how people would suddenly be listening to her? Unless you yourself share that opinion in which case, good luck to you, we have nothing to share.

    What 5km rule would that be?

    How many arrests outside the GPO?

    Who the **** are you talking about in your last post, and how do you know all this - or, maybe, you're just talking out your arse?

    Yet if one was to listen to some around this forum, Chu won't stop "banging on" about racism. Victim blaming really has curled into something especially misanthropic and vulgar through these mental gymnastics. I hope at the very least their wee daughter is shielded from this ugliness (the article says in this instance she was).

    Spare me from the idiocy of weekend patriots. I'd wonder if DeValera, being as he was a mixed-race man, was Irish enough for their blood but we all know why he would be.

    Harassing her at her home is frankly disgusting.

    Is it digusting to have a protest outside Don's former house in DC? Boris' place in London?

    You seem to pick and choose whether a protest outside a house is appropriate, or under what circumstances a protest violating Covid protocols is necessary.
