I suspect certain posters like to try to derail threads (for their own inexplicable ends). Part of that tactic is to provoke responses from their fellow posters that they can then report and get the said poster banned.

It’s especially noticeable when they don’t have a leg to stand on and are bereft of a counter-argument.

Sometimes it's as simple as righteous indignation gives people a sense of moral superiority.

I'm genuinely sorry that that upset you but you accused the poster of implying the children should be starved when you know they did no such thing. That's what I saw as dishonest - and a much worse thing to be accused of.

A friend of mine had his work van broken into and all of his tools stolen. Thousands of pounds worth. He went to the gardai who told him there was probably no chance of him getting them back. No problem with the guard's there hands are tied on this. Anyway on the way out a garda told him of a certain market on a Saturday morning where he might be fit to buy them back cheap. Who is shouting about my friends rights. Anyhow until this minority start to behave like decent honest citizens they should be entitled to sweet f.a.

I wish travellers would take the time to at least learn how to spell 'travellers'.

And wanted to be seen as a 'settled ethnic minority'? The irony :rolleyes:

Stay as far away from Dublin on that day as humanly possible. That is going to be a big disaster.

CONSTANTLY BEING TURNT AWAY FROM PLACES JUST BECAUSE OF OUR CULTURE

Such absolute nonsense. They are "turnt" away because they have zero manners and destroy every pub or hotel they are let into. That's not racist.

A nuke might be a bit harsh, but I'd like to see the long-term economic workings all the same, just for curiosity like.

The government would have an awful lot of extra money all of a sudden.

Silent Running

"One law for one community and nothing for another"?

So they do see themselves as outside of the laws that govern the rest of us. There it is in black and white. Am I still allowed to use that phrase? :rolleyes:

Seriously though, what exactly is this traveller culture I hear so much about?

I aspire to being cultured, could their culture be for me too?

The culture of inter-family brawling at First Holy Communions, that is.

At present the attitudes expressed are exacerbating the situation. Travellers are never going to conform to ordinary Irish standards. It is not in their ... culture.. to do so. Not in their makeup. That was why the govt(?) statement was made about them being a different culture etc.

sorry; too weary and in pain to say more as some of you are jumping on me and I need all my wits to repsond. properly

but I have never written a dishonest post; terrible thing to accuse of.

But clesarly the current attitide is getting nowhere. They will never conform as you are seeking.

blessings and peace

I am happy to ask Africans to remove Female Genital Mutilation from their culture. Would you just prefer that I don't call for this anymore?

I am also happy to ask Muslims to change their culture to treat women better. Would you just prefer that the current treatment of women in Islamic countries just be accepted?

I have similar asks of Traveller culture.

Hilarious - wrecking pubs, fighting with slash hooks, and setting up fake compo claims for "falls" is classed as "culture" with them. The sense of entitlement is off the scale.

There’s an “accounting” coming. A man, a relative unknown in political circles, recently made a quite reasonable statement criticizing the approach taken by a certain ethnicity to housing. Just over a week later those of us with a keener sense of reason voted in our droves for this man to be president. I’m quite happy with the job RTE and msm are doing. The worm has turned and we’re seeing it at the ballot box.

Hope you're right. But if Europe and most of our politicians get there way I fear the respectable, law abiding irish citizens will become the ethnic minority. Hope I'm wrong.

They once had a culture. Travel around as tinkers and pick up metal repair work from farmers and also good at handling horses. They had a good relationship with farmers as they were dirt poor and needed the work. But they many/most in Ireland were poor too. It isn't that long ago, 1950's even and later. Tinker wasn't a dirty word either

Somewhere along the way the horse and trap turned into a high spec non taxed British reg 4x4 and from depending on farmers for work the farmers now fear them.

You are dreaming of a distant past Grace and one that is never coming back

Is the, Paddy Doherty, who is organizing this march in Dublin, the lad from Gypsy Wedding, if it is ,he must be trying to raise his profile here, as his, and his family's star is falling rapidly with the UK public.

Youghal managed to shut down a few years ago when word of a possible traveller wedding party setting its sights on the town got out.

Bars, clubs, restaurants, hotels - all shut their doors for the day. A Saturday in early summer. Imagine, a seaside town dependent on hospitality (especially since Youghal Carpets and Kodak closed) losing a day's trade on the busiest day of the week at the busiest time of year?

Could only be bigotry!
