    If the government create a 'level 6' after St Patrick's Day, will America and the rest of the allied powers do supply drops from the air for us in Ireland? - like they did in Berlin in 1948 when the Soviet Union blockaded Berlin :D

    We need to shut down essential retail next. Too much temptation to buy a few cans.

    As minister for Higher Education, Innovation and Science he should be told to concentrate on his own portfolio - sick and tired of being talked down to by various politicians

    Wasn't some TD whinging yesterday that the planned alcohol sales restrictions didn't go ahead yet.

    Nah. Just grow a few spuds in your garden if you're hungry. Just hope there isn't any blight.

    They are all intoxicated on having the country locked down and under the thumb. They can't get enough of it.

    The people going to protest today in Dublin are scum. Stay local and wear a masks. Retards

    It never ceases to amaze me how docile and subservient a certain percentage of the population have become

    It never ceases to amaze me that people like to defend anti social behaviour.

    Yeah. The best place to stay is under the bed quivering with fear at the notion of getting a virus with a 0.5% chance of it killing me.

    Now where’s me water

    It looks like Dr Ray Walley has finally made his way to this thread

    Maybe retards was a bit strong but it reminds me when the EDL went marching in Manchester after the Manchester bombings. Similar level of people.

    You are conflating protest and anti social behaviour. I dont agree with the current protest but as I said in the other thread, the attempt to suppress protest does not sit right with me.

    They should police breaches of restrictions or anti social behaviour if and when it occurs but people have a right to protest.

    It’s a wonderful time in Irish history for anyone with autocratic leanings.

    You can publicly state that all protests should be banned and that people shouldn’t be allowed drink alcohol in their own homes and no one bats an eyelid.

    The vast majority of the general public are asleep at the wheel, it’s unforgivable.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,499 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    Is aiming a firework at a police officers head a right of protest?

    No of course not. That's just silly.

    No. That's why it was roundly condemned even by people who are against restrictions and/or supportive of the protests. Duh.

    I look forward to seeing the inevitable anti social behaviour of the protesters on the 6.1 tonight.

    I think the groundwork being laid neatly in last 2 days by co ordinated comments from likes of harris martin nphet to set out the bogus timeline and reasoning for doing no changes at all on april 5.The narrative will be that we warned ye about st patricks day/march 17 +~10 days is week of "reveiw"/look at the static,slightly up,slightly down case numbers/sorry ye have been bold again/rinse and repeat with easter weekend consequences/may bank holiday consequences/june bank holiday consequences/-the potential is ongoing.It is a well used ploy at this stage -Christmas being the most often quoted example.Amazing also to see how Halloween ,which seemed to not be mentioned at the time greatly as it was in the middle of a lockdown and cases decreased for november after it,has suddenly become resurrected in memory banks of Nolan Monday and then Martin yesterday-This is a farce.Facts are being manipulated and selectively used to suit narrative and media pass on without comment.Irish independent talks today about what 4th wave will look like as a result of today ?This infantilising of people is a disgrace.

    I'd be more worried about the dogs bollocks the government have made of the vaccine rollout than any protest, that's more likely to **** us over than anyone acting the maggot at a protest

    So you wouldn't fear a 1 in 200 chance of dying of something if you caught it.

    Your numbers are wrong though. Fatality percentage is a lot lower than 0.5%

    Oh, yeah the government has made a hames of vaccine roll out. 100% agree on this.

    Low bar for inspiration there;)

    Have a look at the thread on St. Patrick day protests to see the authoritarian leftie thugs delighted that marshall law is in effect in town.

    Better stay under the duvet all day, just in case.

    Thanks for the correction
    You are of course right
    I’m under 50 so my chances of death are approx 1 in 10,000
