    The comments aren't written on her face tho, are they?

    Yes it's all circumstantial. Case dismissed. It's obvious what it means. What next a white supremist argues his swastika is a doodle and KKK is a triple K and K is his favourite letter.

    I'm not arguing what it means. But that is simply not what is written on her face.

    Amazing display of cognitive dissonance there. I now wonder what PIRA/UVF/INLA/etc on all those murals up north might really have meant.

    I actually think the photo looks shopped, but it wouldn't surprise me either way if it was real.

    PIRA
    INLA
    UVF

    What's wrong with people expressing their appreciation of quality packaging, their interest in nuclear issues or their fond memories of a sun holiday? :confused:

    Bad jokes, ain't the world full of them.

    Something in the air today, I was pacing the floor all morning. I had a touch of orange disorder.

    Yeah, her face looks a bit blocky, I'm calling foul.



    But in all seriousness it looks like a fairly obvious y on it, making Katy.

    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".
    Nah, "Kill all *anyone*" on a kid's forehead really really is worse.

    Taig was an old Irish name like Patrick is now, very common in the past apparently.

    A friend of mines family are called the 'Taig O'Neills' as common surnames have nicknames in rural areas dating back 300 odd years I would imagine.

    anyone remember the Holy Cross primary school debacle where catholic kid's quickest route to school was through a loyalist estate, and each morning the kids were subjected to a bile-filled assault by loyalist residents etc.

    That story broke on the 9th of Sept 2001. News-teams from all the networks were present to film this daily demonstration which ended up becoming quite violent.

    Then in the middle of all, 9/11 happened... and it totally dominated the news headlines for weeks after. But on the 12th of September, there was one other headline on Sky News... the loyalist numb-skulls were out shouting abuse at the kids walking to school again.

    I remember thinking to myself, those people live in such a toxic little bubble. If 9/11 wasn't enough to make them realise how petty they were being, nothing ever will.

    Mary McAleese said that some children were being brought up to hate Catholics, a simple statement of fact. Yet people seemed more worried about her saying this than the evident truth of it.

    That was probably one of the most disgusting historic moments in recent irish history. 12 weeks it went on i think. How any adult could yell such hate young children like that :(

    its probably SF'ers doing this to demonize the other side

    (which is the purpose of this thread and other threads of this type)

    Nobody needs to demonize these people, they do better job of it themselves than anyone else could ever do.

    its the fact that she made it sound one sided...she didn't mention catholics being brought up to hate protestants

    there's hatred on both sides in the north after all

    Tadhg. The coke add for personalised bottles shows that name for some reason.

    Christ that Deborah's a mad yoke altogether

    I recall her house was very small, with woodchip on the wall, when I came round to call, she never noticed me at all.

    Her twin might be called KIT...

    Maybe she's a fan of Kat Slater from Eastenders.

    No, some were raised to hate unionists, most catholics have the sense to know that many irish republican heroes were protestants, 'prods' are a nickname for the unionists but when people say it they don't actually mean the religion.

    I'm sick of reading these failed attempts at moral equivocation.

    Only one 'side' celebrates and perpetuates their hatred.

    They already do that as well, Catholics are subhuman vermin in their eyes

    It wasn't just yelling.
    Some protesters shouted sectarian abuse and threw stones, bricks, fireworks, blast bombs and urine-filled balloons at the schoolchildren and their parents.

    The absolute dregs of humanity.

    Give it another 20 or so years and a similar thing will be happening to some Catholic kids in "the Republic"
