Gardaí have found no evidence that yesterday’s attack by an Egyptian teenager is related to terrorism. And it has said that in the wake of the attack, which left one man dead and two injured, the terrorism threat level in the Republic remains unchanged. The Garda has moved to quell speculation the incident in Dundalk, Co Louth, was terrorism related amid much public speculation, especially on social media, that the incident was an Islamist extremist attack. “At this time, we can find no established link to indicate that this tragedy is terrorist related,” the Garda said in a statement. “However, enquires are continuing internationally as the investigation develops. “The threat level in this jurisdiction from international terrorism remains unchanged (moderate), where an attack is possible but not likely. “The level of threat remains under constant review by An Garda Síochána in consultation with the Defence Forces. ”

Ireland is well on its way in the same direction. The joys of the EU and Angela Merkels migrant policy.

United Kingdom is 66,379,645 as of Tuesday, January 2, 2018, based on the latest United Nations estimates. NI has population of just over 1.81 million. Do the math (take the smaller number from the gross number).

Jasus there would be some BS on a thread here if that happened and he was denied his rights. Probably by the same posters too.

After years of being forced to live off events in those dark multicultural elsewheres, while patiently longing for an event of their own to frame as 'Islamic Terrorism', tonight they are only delighted about it. It gives them great opportunity to spread far right racist myths and memes. They're having boners all over. "Finally; been saying it for years; jihad in Ireland"

I might go out with no papers this summer and tell them I'm from Cancun if that's the case! We have laws here that the state can hold aliens without passports/documents in detention centers until more is ascertained. That's the height of it.
