He's not getting loads of media attention.
Barely a mention since he was locked up again, no matter how many desperate videos the Burkes post on twitter.
You're entitled to your opinion but the handy thing about the Law is: everything tends to be in black and white. The sister wasn't "thrown" anywhere, she refused to leave the court having refused to back down from causing chaos during proceedings - you're trying to spin a story here.
You can peddle this conspiratorial angle if you want but the facts are there to be seen. Burke has refused to comply by any legal direction and refused to purge his contempt. This is why he's in jail ATM - and for a second time at that, having shown no ability to learn. Ignoring a court order or refusing to purge your contempt? This is what happens.
Lemme just quote Quin_Dub breakdown of the exact nature of this entire problem.
You can say muslim this and LGBTQ that but this is a legal problem exacerbated by an obstinate defendent who's trying to martyr himself and refuses to comply by the judgement of the courts
Sure we could all do that if we want; ignore the courts if we don't like the results. It's just another flavour of the "free man" kinda fluff that tries to dodge tax payment etc. this sorry case is dragging on but the facts are there.
This is what happens, just state that it’s because of religious persecution. Ignore the facts. It will keep happening because being a victim is easier than being in the wrong and certainly easier to peddle. We can see it happen in America with Trump were he says it’s political persecution when it’s just consequences of actions. His own actions. He doesn’t have to believe it he just has to say it.
Adorable people still try to peddle this.
This could of been handled early on before it got to this stage
Absolutely it could. But Enoch chose otherwise.
There is a conflict that relgions have with LGBTQ, that dosnt matchup with the state.
Again, this boils down to choices. Some religion choose to make their peace with the LGBTQ, sone choose to continue living in the dark ages. The State doesn't get involved as long as no one chooses to break the law.
There are plenty of Muslims - and Jews and Athiests for that matter - in jail for choosing to break the law, but you already know this and chose to ignore it too.
Are you suggesting that if, when all this carry-on started, Burke had gone to his Principal and quietly discussed his objections in a reasonable manner he would still have been thrown in jail? Just because he had issues with LGBTQ people? And the State was anxious to throw resources into putting the family in jail? So why are the rest of the family still at large, surely they have created enough disorder in various courts to have an excellent excuse to lock them up?
And who is the 'they' that wanted to make an example out of him and his family? Anyone in authority? The first 'they' in that case was the Principal, why would the Principal want to make an example of the Burke family? Was it because the family invaded a school meeting shouting and chanting and making complete fools of themselves? Rude and ignorant fools at that. But that was after the Principal was initially verbally abused by Burke, why did the Principal initially take against the family?
Enoch Burke was a respected and competent teacher prior to all this, apparently his LBGTQ views were not a problem for the school authorities, he apparently had not objected to the previous case of a student requesting to be known by a different name and gender, so what suddenly inspired the Principal to pick on him? Maybe the Principal got instructions from the courts and the police and set the whole thing up?
The whole thing is a bit of a mystery, perhaps you could be more specific about how it happened?
Enoch from day one wanted a conflict with the state. He publicly harassed a principal and then upon suspension over this, he proceeded to disrupt the operation of the school on a daily basis. Them he refused to follow a court order which has resulted in his prison stay. So nope, wouldn't be okay for any religion to be pulling this.
That's rubbish. They wanted to make an example out of him and his family. The garda throwing his sister on the ground outside the court was another example. This could of been handled early on before it got to this stage. The principal did a poor job and the courts did a poor job. There is a conflict that relgions have with LGBTQ, that dosnt matchup with the state. If he was a Muslim that difference would of been acknowledged straight away and a resolution would of been found. But because he was Christian, he was thrown under the bus.
True, but as you already know now it wasn't just that, was?
He chose to be locked up rather than purge his contempt just as you chose to ignore this fact rather than draw an honest conclusion from the events reported.
He's being held in contempt of court, until he purges it. The same as everyone else who commits contempt of court.
If it was just that, he wouldn't be locked up in prison indefinitely and getting loads of media attention.
Do we have to remind soneone AGAIN what he was jailed for doing, or are you going to read up on it for yourself....?
Because posts like this have been coming up every few pages since the thread started and its kind of getting silly now. The only way you could not know is by choice.
If Enoch was Muslim this would of been nipped in the bud earlier on.
Lots of criminals who committed horrific crimes walking around Dublin with suspended sentences. And they lock this guy up indefinitely, what a joke of a system.
Sorry, quoted wrong post.
Wasn't referring to anyone specifi when I made the comment.
Yes.
Court 3, Justice Sanfey, 11:00am (for mention).
And the bishop in this case is a woman.
Are they due in the High Court again tomorrow to give Enoch the chance to come home for Christmas?
who really cares what the daily mail says in fairness besides those who already believe Enoch is in the right.
There are no queens - they're against LGBT remember?!
Any Irish person who buys this, or browses the website, isn't worthy of the name.
The so-called Irish Daily Mail, has no business being in existence.
His son's Quay is down the Liffey
Are you sure it is a 'news' report?
Where is John Rogers
Daily Mail are not the only media outlet completely misreporting this. Our own lads have been at it since the beginning. At least you expect it from Daily Mail.
Ya but it's a sin to put things up the usual place for prison smuggling 🤣
Teacher jailed indefinitely for refusing to 'call a boy a girl'
That is precisely not why he has been jailed. A disgraceful bit of "journalism" trying to fashion clicks from so-called "culture wars".
The Daily Mail is a right wing Tory rag - They aren't exactly going to play a straight bat on this story..
newsreport in today's Daily Mail
Maybe it's the photos but mammy seems to be wearing makeup lately.
It's hardly for the camera as vanity is a sin ... 🤔🤔🤔🙄
