    "Whatabout"


    The go to tool of the person without a logical argument.


    It's disgraceful to be using the hurt and pain of genuine victims to justify one's own bigotry. Anyone who does so, should be ashamed of themselves.

    Didnt you just do that when you wished a death screaming of cancer on someone you dont know and have never met, a totally innocent being?

    If I could put a curse on you I'd put a painful screaming death of cancer on one of your relatives for that disgusting comment.


    "makey uppey". What a cunt of a thing to say
    Mod note: Donald Trump, don't post in this thread again.

    So after all the belly-aching and namecalling from the pope lovers nobody who wanted a ticket was actually prevented from getting one as it didnt sell out?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,377 ✭✭✭Warper


    Have people received their tickets?

    I got mine late last night

    If a person who had a "retaliative" who was abused, has waited until now, and the sum of their efforts to help that person consists of anonymously signing up for tickets with fake email addresses in order to deny some pensioner from Mayo of the chance to attend an event they want to, then they might want to take a good luck at themselves and ask themselves if they really give a fuck about that "retaliative"

    It has been repeatedly said to you that the tickets were taken down from sale as the sale window had expired. NOT that they ran out.

    Nobody denied anybody anything. Nobody, not a single sinner, zip, zilch.
    You are finding outrage where there is none to be had.

    Stop being so bloody obtuse.

    Would deleting the email not serve the same purpose whilst saving paper?;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 934 ✭✭✭Captainsatnav


    For anyone that did actually get tickets, is it even possible to flog them / give them away? Are ppl genuinely looking for them? Done Deal etc for example has no ads up as far as I can see...

    You cant recite the incantations while deleting an email. It just isn't the same.

    Nope, fcuk the environment too, bought some incense in Veritas to make it all ceremonial

    I wish he wasn't coming. The anti Church sentiment has gotten more vocal. There are various ignoramuses out there who will be intent on causing trouble. It all seemed to get more vicious around the time of the referendum, when Catholics were deemed to be anti-woman and uncaring for being pro-life. These are hypocritical times!

    the only ignoramuses (ignorami?) are those who continue to support an organisation that they know facilitated and covered-up child abuse.

    It's interesting that you label those who are anti-church as "ignoramuses" [sic] yet it would appear that the opposite is true - ie those who validate the head paedophile coming here would seem to me to be of lower intelligence.

    I mean... if you're a receptionist for the axis of evil*, you're still a member of a horrible organisation and guilty by proxy.


    (*yes, I know this is robbed from Bill Bailey :pac: )

    Suppose all Muslims are guilty of Islamic terrorism then.

    Not comparable. But if their Imams purposefully covered up acts of rape and molestation... then your comment would make sense.

    Definitely comparable. Just not as as edgy to have a go another group.

    Members of a group that blow themselves up or helped create an Isis style world view. Same thing.

    They don't have to - the UK police do a very good job of that for them.

    A heavily flawed comparison.

    The pope is the head of the Catholic church and heads the Vatican, the Vatican specifically wrote rules on how to silence and cover up abuses. The pope and the Vatican dictate church teachings and can edited and change what priests say at mass around the world. A random Muslim person simply cannot and does not have such power over Imam's like you are trying to compare with your flawed comparison.

    To this very day the Vatican flat out refuses to release its records on abuse to ANY country that has requested them and its also refused to give them to the UN. The Vatican/Pope have never demanded that catholic organisations should pay the millions they owe to abuse victims.

    If the pope (as the leader) wanted to change any of the above he could merely do so with a few words, but yet all we hear is meaningless apology's with no actions behind them.

    The fact he refuses to change Vatican policy's means he is happy for the church to continue its mission....to wait until all the abuse victims are dead. A perfect way to avoid paying millions.

    More fair comparison the King of Saudi Arabia then.

    Its a bit like the Head Vampire in The Lost Boys.

    Only more sinister.

    I'm curious, whats with the whatabouttery?
    Is the King if Saudi Arabia being welcome at a big event in the phoenix park this month? (nope)

    We're talking about the pope, the fact he's being welcome at massive tax payer expense to Ireland, the catholic church's role in pain and suffering in Ireland and how they've mistreated many of our citizens for decades

    If you want to continue this silly whataboutery are you going to try compare to David Miscavige next?
    :rolleyes:
