    If you ever read the Kerryseye you would realise that this is relatively big news.

    Bloody foreigners. They think they're still living in the third world where such things are acceptable. If they can't fit into Irish sociey and accepted norms, then they should be deported.

    Got it.

    Polish = Swans
    Africans = Goats

    The circle is complete.

    Were they simply going to eat them or was it some sort of sacrificial ceremony?

    Details like this are vital!

    Taste of their own medicine? :confused: There's no mention in the article of any floatation devices been set ablaze.

    Are ya sure you're not just a racist now, Father?

    My old man used to slaughter animals in our back yard for years , he was a butcher in a meat factory and used to moonlight during the period coming up to xmas , nobody ever complained , possibly because we are white... but more than likely due to the fact that the housing estate was a sh1te hole.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,880 ✭✭✭Canis Lupus


    Never realised you couldn't slaughter an animal yourself.

    Because they'll have no way to escape the fire on a raft.

    Hmmm let's see - Ireland has one of the highest rates of animal cruelty incidents in Europe, one of the highest rates of stray dogs and cats and animals put down and we seem fit to moralize about others? Please.

    This is a country where fox hunting still continues, bloodsports like non-muzzle hare coursing, badger baiting and dogfighting are still widespread and cattle and horses starved to death on decrepit farms run by lunatics and senile individuals and people seem to want to point fingers at others?

    We Irish are in no position to condemn foreigners with respect to animal cruelty.

    They should be commended for assimilating perfectly into the local society. Good on you lads

    Technically you can, but you need to abide by fairly strict rules when doing so. In any case, doing it in view or earshot of neighbors and possibly children isn't on.

    I kept a few lambs a year or so ago and when the time came for them to be slaughtered it was a lot more straightforward for me to bring them to an abattoir to have the job done than it would have been for me to legally do it myself at home.

    Proper thuggish post. If that's not barbarian I don't know what is. Backward, indeed.

    So it's only acceptable to chastise those born in Ireland when stuff like this happens? I'm a bit surprised by the restraint shown by people in regard to this.

    If the African people in the article were replaced by travelers or Irish people living in some specific estates around the country, the reaction would be entirely different.
    We Irish are in no position to condemn foreigners with respect to animal cruelty.

    Ah, sure let them at it so. Bizarre reasoning tbh. Animal cruelty is animal cruelty. It shouldn't matter what nationality the people are.. if you're against that stuff being carried out by Irish nationals then it's mental to not also be against it when carried out by non-Irish nationals.
