    The whole opening spiel is a yes vote campaign message. You think you're on neutral ground here?

    Yep Boards.ie is neo liberal simpleton central. Like a politically correct forum for our Masters lunatic agendas thats spoon fed to us as "progress" as the murder of babies and all conservative values and ethics are eradicated piece by piece. Bans and infractions all around for those that dont support this neo liberal lunacy.

    Knowing this Of course its going to be very very intensely pro abortion.

    Well according to some lunatics, Ireland is Gilead....:rolleyes:

    For much of the last century it wouldn't have been too far off.

    I'm raptured by the joy of it all

    A lot of it's happening right now... only it's in the Middle East and the leftie brigade would go nuts if you didn't set it in one of the freest and most equitable nations on earth...

    NB - World population circa 1950 2.5 Billion, now 2018 7.5 billion, the world is not short of people.

    He's worried it'll be short of *white* people.

    When you get targeted by ads (which I am not getting btw) it generally means (by algorithm) that you are susceptible to what they are promoting. Like I keep getting targeted by shoe companies because my wife is buying some on Amazon.

    Quite amusing the amount of 'Pat is great, Pat did this, Pat the Pro, Pat is putting them in their place'.

    From posters who usually call him Kenny or Plank on the Late Late thread!

    If Hitler was on the Yes side it would be 'wasn't Adolf marvellous!'

    Hahaha, that's brilliant! There's been about 10,000 soapboxing pure campaigning posts so far and you have a meltdown over this one. Comical.

    What are you on about?

    Good man, since you’re back, can you respond to the two questions I asked you yesterday?

    He’s a neoNazi. I don’t know what he meant in the waffle you posted but you can bet your mortgage on it’s meaning being something along the lines of “abortion is a genocide on white Irish babies”

    Women are being denied autonomy for religious regions and patriarchal bull**** is reinforced in legislation. Terrible altogether.

    Anybody speaking in favour of yes just come across as more mature, compassionate, understanding and fair than any No campaigner I've seen.

    As a No voter I would agree that the Yes side in general seem to be more compassionate and are probably doing a better job in winning the middle undecided voters. Anybody who says a women that has an abortion has killed her baby is an idiot if they think that will win the middle vote. And a lot of the No posters are suggesting and hinting that.

    But removing the 8th will reduce the legal right of the unborn in our constitution, and that is why I am going No as I want the unborn to remain having a robust legal right. I also believe there is people all over the country here because of the 8th and there will be more in the future if the 8th remains ...... and life is good :)

    It has plenty of racists and general gob****es too however, to be fair.

    I’m sorry I asked.

    I never suggested you were?

    It's obvious you and other no posters recognise the argument has been lost at this point, so you've started throwing around Hitler and nazi references out of desperation.

    The vote may be lost. We don't know. The argument will never be lost as long as humans continue to recognise the right to life of the unborn.

    You think you've carried the argument as you are part of the 20 posting to every one poster against you. Echo chamber..25 likes on here don't mean you've won the debate.

    The Unborn doesn't have a "robust" legal right - the 13th removed that. Now all it has is the legal right to be terminated in another jurisdiction.

    There would be even more people walking around if we made contraception illegal again. Would you be in favour of that?

    Moaning about soapboxing. After 10,000 posts soapboxing.
    Oh, you're only letting on you didn't understand? Not sure what you'll get out of doing that, you might enlighten us?

    Mary Lou is people managing this one - she's a great debater

    She really is. I agree with her on hardly anything but sometimes the twains do meet. She’s highly intelligent and never gets flustered.

    Did anyone think Maria Steen seemed a bit shook tonight?

    Which is superironic because they are literally neonazis!

Germany and Sweden will both be minority’s in their own countries soon, they will be sorry when the minority majority turns on them and liberalism goes to the window in favour of genocide.


    Bit of the old fear of decline of racial purity there ?

    heard of that somewhere before .... hmm .... Ein something......Ein something else

    Why aren't the No side campaigning for the repeal of the 13th and 14th amendments?

    She was majorly shook because she was robustly challenged and I think her and Ronan and all the rest of the trenchant No brigade, saw the writing on the wall for the 'great Iona' project.

    Because there's a referendum in two days time about the 8th?
    Just a wild guess there.

    I'm a NO but I thought Pat Kenny did well, it's hard to try and control people with such a contentious issue at stake. He was at pains to ensure both sides got 50/50
