Belfast child has 'Kill All Taigs' written on her forehead

MakeEmLaugh · 13-07-2014 01:07AM #1

A rather shocking image emerged on social media earlier. It can be seen here. It's of a young girl in Northern Ireland (her age is hard to determine, but she's presumably younger then 10) with the letters KAT written on her forehead in red, white and blue, the colours of the British flag, presumably by her parents or carers.

KAT, for those who don't know, is an acronym for the old loyalist slogan Kill All Taigs (Kill All Catholics).

Will social services be able to intervene in this case? Surely if British social services are willing to remove a child from their foster parents simply for being UKIP members, they can act here?

Christ that Deborah's a mad yoke altogether

We all know what will happen. Nothing.
Unfortunately, children in the north are still being brought up like that all the time.
Once they can walk they are dragged along to marches and whenever there is a riot (often) families go out with their children to look at it and I have seen dads giving their young sons stones to throw at the RUC or the other side.
Children struck by rocks from the other side are being told that is what they do and that is why you should hate them.
Very sad, but cry much reality.
It is almost a wonder that so many of them grow up without an intense hatred.

So she has "KAT" written on her forehead....not "Kill All Taigs"?

Fleg.

How do you know her or her parents aren't just showing their appreciation of their favourite torrent site?

Sulla Felix · 13-07-2014 01:17AM

Not really any worse than teaching them that the kids down the road will be going to hell because they do/don't do this/that differently to "us".

The north is like a secret society with all these abbreviations etc.
Like TAL UDR SU etc etc

But protestants go to purgatory first my mum taught me and on judgement day God might allow them into heaven after all.

Maybe her parents love Kick Ass Torrents.

I never figured why they write these, what do they mean?

Dan_Solo · 13-07-2014 01:20AM

Don't suppose her name is Kat then?

I don't know if you're joking.. But the comments on the side of the picture would suggest that isn't the case

Obviously my version of that joke was too subtle for AH tastes.

The Orangemen will be marching tomorrow but I hope it is the rugby men that do the walking

Used to date a girl in Belfast with a tattoo of a bloody cleaver and shank ill butchers under it. Her da was not impressed that she went out with a foreign catholic who is also mad into his gaelic sports :-P

Its looks like Katy on her forehead and a lame internet spoof, storm in a teacup story, photo shop job, and see if it goes viral.

I thought the same but then realised all is done with a yellow filter (see how the face and arms are bright yellow

Hope they have social services at their door Monday morning. Encouraging a child to hold those kind of views in a society where so many people have died at the hands of such people is an abuse of the child and repugnant on every level.
Then putting a pic online, even on a private fb, that might potentially make that child a lightening rod for sectarian hatred...it just boggles the mind,

Hope so too but I have seen police offers help children put election posters onto bonfires so I doubt anything will happen.

The comments associated with the picture say it means kill all Taigs.

In fairness I knew a guy called Tadhg once. He was a prick.

I doubt it, sure everyone hates Tadhg's

Except for Tadhg's themselves but I'm sure deep down a part of them hate themselves for being called such a name :pac:
