    I wouldnt take heed of anything that muppet says. A rich daddy's boy who despite the education and opportunities he's been handed still turns out as thick as sh!t.

    Hmmm…. hard to know…….. must check a few of the Turkish Barber shops in my village…. always seem full but very little haircutting……uhmmmm

    Its a bit of a conundrum for sure bwana.

    As thick as he is he still knows the difference between him, her, and them.

    I would guess that without sufficient proof that he is indeed in the house, the gardai can't just force their way in to see if he's there. They would probably need a warrant allowing them to enter and search the house for him.

    If the Burkes then try to prevent access when the gardai have that, then they could be done for obstruction of justice or similar, or possibly aiding and abetting if they say he's not in the house and then the gardai enter and find that he is.

    But without a search warrant for the actual house, they likely can't enter unless given permission by the occupants. In fairness they probably didn't think they needed it since there was never really any issue in bringing him to prison before that.

    Where’s Dr. Nichols?? He’s the key to all of this- Enoch has definitely made contact with him- if you find Dr. Nichols you find Enoch

    I watched the videos of the Guards going to the Burke home the other day and was shocked by the number of people supporting him in the comments. I told myself some of them must be trolling, but many/most are real people, although there could also be some bots or dodgy agents. Very similar views to that Facebook post.

    It's pretty scary. So many people are blinkered, have such strong bias, ignorant or are just plain stupid in relation to this and also other events.

    In general now most media in the big "reputable" media orgs, let's say RTE, the Irish Times and Indo are pretty clear on the facts on all this. At the start they were not, on a few occasions they didn't refer to him verbally attacking the principal at the school events and instead talked about transgenderism for his suspension.

    I'm reading "How Fascism Works", there is a throw away line in it how in 2015 Trump just repeated Lock her Up" and "Drain the Swamp" as that is as much as debate/information as a lot of people can handle.

    You repeat a lie often enough it becomes the truth. The Burkes repeat the same Enoch has been locked up for his beliefs over and over and over, and this is all that certain people hear. They don't have the capacity, will or whatever to question it and look into it any more.

    As I say it's kinda frightening to see in many ways.

    "Our Fugitive's name is Enoch Burke……GO GET HIM!"



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,070 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Have they tried to find him hiding around reservoirs?

    Although, he might believe it will dam(n) his soul.

    Give it up Enoch-It's time to stop running.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 16,135 ✭✭✭✭Arghus


    No doubt there's some real people commenting, but I think there's a lot of bots.

    Lots, if not the majority of comments, are left by accounts with the same basic format of username: first name,last name, followed by three digit or four digit number.

    The way the names are formatted and the content of the comments are suspiciously uniform - looks very bot-esque to me.

    Has anyone checked the hospitals in Mayo? If there are reports of patients actually getting better, then Enoch is definitely in the area.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,483 ✭✭✭jacool


    I don't suppose anyone has entertained, or would want to, I guess, the possibility that young Enoch is suffering from a debilitating dose of chronic diarrhoea?

    I don't mean the verbal stuff normally associated with the Burkes. This would be at the other end of things.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,156 ✭✭✭✭salmocab


    not a chance there Blyton books in the house. George wanted to be a boy and wouldn’t answer to Georgina. But transgenderism is new !!!!

    That’s a terrible slur on mammy burkes cooking- wash your mouth out with carbolic soap and give yourself 10 flagellations before sundown

    There could be a lot of bots, I/you/we'd need to check into it. But the default on youtube for a username is firstnamelastname1234, that's what mine is on there.

    The longer EB stays hiding/on the run, whatever, we all benefit.

    He's not at the school and he's not taking up a place in jail and costing €€€s.

    So, winners all round.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,260 ✭✭✭CrowdedHouse


    The Guards are really useless, he's probably in the house but they couldn't be bothered to look.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,156 ✭✭✭✭salmocab


    I’d say they are happy for him to effectively put himself under house arrest. Turn up occasionally ask is he there and mooch off for lunch.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,260 ✭✭✭CrowdedHouse


    I'm sorry that's not good enough, there's a High Court order for his imprisonment. If it was me or you they'd probably break down the door.

    It may be the best outcome for them not to find him. If he stays on the run he may not go near the school. It may quiten the rest of the family too as they can't protest about him being locked up.

    Having said that the need for attention may eventually see them all resurface.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,641 ✭✭✭Bogey Lowenstein
    That must be Nigel with the brie...


    Also it isn't costing the taxpayer money to keep him locked up this way.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 436 ✭✭holliehobbie


    Not to mention how much it’s costing us!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 41,286 ✭✭✭✭Hotblack Desiato


    It's wasting valuable Garda time though

    I'm partial to your abracadabra
    I'm raptured by the joy of it all

    No need for the Gardai to give the Burkes what they want which is loads of video footage of forced entry.

    Once we get bored of his latest comedy show and stop talking about it Burke will rise from his tomb to generate more media content. He can't help it, it's in his nature.
