    I personally think the visits going really well so far. To be fair to RTÉ the Éirigi boys are very much playing second fiddle and rightly so.

    I do hope the world is watching. It'll highlight the new age constitutional socialist republican muppets we have to put up with day in day out in the Dáil and on the streets.

    They give peaceful protesters, and unfortunately, protesters with a point, a bad name.

    Mad that freedom fighting republicans also dress like scumbags... must be a coincidence :confused:

    The men and women of 1916 would be soo proud. Such wastes of human being.

    A school for autistic kids down the road from me Is closing because it can't get the 240 thousand a year to run it.

    That 30 million would have kept it open for 120 years.

    The press reporting on the Queen's visit is very patchy - I keep reading that the streets were empty. Not true. At various places along the route, where security wasn't so overzealous, crowds of people did gather. I was in the crowd where this Youtube video was taken: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZ6unj460pE

    As the video shows, surprisingly, or perhaps unsurprisingly, the Queen tended to be cheered whenever people saw her.

    My only question is: why did she bring that ridiculous Range Rover that people can hardly see her in? She should have brought her Bentley and actually allowed people to see her. This is a significant moment and it's a real pity that the Irish people are welcoming a Head of State they can't actually see. Can't understand it! It's not as if the Bentley isn't secure! Perplexing. :confused:

    29 people died in the Omagh bombing including children, teenagers, a pregnant woman and tourists. They were different creeds and nationalities and were all innocent. Because of the absolute scum who carried out these and more attacks and the junkies and scum who support them and were present at this protest today, the Government have to spend huge amounts of money to protect not just the British Queen but everyone on this island and that is to the detriment of all society.

    It would be pathetic for people who support these protests to start blabbing on about the cost of security.

    Yeah that's the one. What I meant to say is why is she using the Range Rover instead of her Bentley? It's not as if it's difficult to bring a car over from England, and people would have had a better view of her in the Bentley.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,631 ✭✭✭✭Hank Scorpio


    Nothing but knackerish scumbags in those pics. I'm not particularly happy about the visit, and I don't mind anyone protesting once they're peaceful. Why do these ugly mugs have to show their faces around the place, their not Irish just low life scum

    Did you notice the thickness of the doors when they were open? I bet that thing could withstand a rocket.

    Obamas cadillac (wait till you see that monstrosity) has its own oxygen supply apparently.

    Lifted from that Irish Republican forum. Can i also note the poster has a picture of Osama Bin Laden as his avatar :pac:
    A Great Day for Irish Republicanism

    Once more the Youth of Dublin has shown that there is still manhood and womanhood left in Ireland. Today was Dublin's proudest moment since the Dublin Riots of 2006. Republican Dublin has shown that the mentally castrated Sleeveen Irish can bow and scrape to their queen all they want, and try to pretend that the occupation of our six north eastern counties is the most "normal" thing in the world, but, there will always be a faithful few who will take on the might of the British empire and their free state lackies.

    At the top of Fredrick St. within shouting distance of the Garden of Rememberance, RSF set up a picket from before twelve. We then saw the 32CSM marching, with flags proudly flying, down Dorset St. towards us. Hearts lifted, we cheered our Republican comrades as they came to join us. A little later, the scene was repeated as the RNU marched in.

    Then the scene was set for a full on confrontation with the lacky gardaí who tried to keep us "under control." No such luck for the traitors, as these pictures below tell. Well done to all who turned up, including many comrades from this forum, including comrades from PSF. When the English monarch arrived, there was a deafening racket of megaphones, horns, and bangers, that must have given the royal spine a fair fright.

    This was Republican unity at its best, telling the world loud and clear that IRELAND UNFREE WILL NEVER BE AT PEACE.


    Brainwashed Wierdo's :D

    I was once driving into london on the m4 just after heathrow, and she and phil breezed past in the rolls with the glass back. Full view of her right there beside me and the security cars were only in front and behind.

    You aren't doing yourself much favours either.

    This thread needs locked up and the key thrown away.

    Quite obviously at least some of them are.

    But we shouldn't tar everyone with the same brush.

    It's up to true "republicans" to condemn the bomb scares, threats and behaviour seen today and then we'll be able to see which is which.
