    Naming them could save thousands more children from being raped. So my answer is yes

    So anyone who's accused or anyone found guilty?

    Crimes against children always have special restrictions so that the children's identities can be protected. No conspiracy here. He was warned already and ignored the warning.

    Wouldn't the children be brought in a different entrance anyway? These scumbags should be identified and have their faces plastered all over the world.

    Take a look at the guys on the video that went to court yesterday. Do you really believe that they are innocent?

    That's not an answer. Do you think that people's names should be made public when they're accused? Or just when found guilty?

    The trial is ongoing. Robinson could have collapsed the case and those guys get off scott free. Their faces will be plastered all over the media after being found guilty.

    In this post someone quotes a news article where the judge specifically mentions jurors

    Edit: just read that article and it's from last years case. Then he filmed inside the building and also because of him being there the jurors and defendants had to be led out through a side entrance. It could be something similar here. But until he's actually in court we won't know the reasons behind the charges.

    I've never done that once. My whole post history is available for you to search. Go find a single post where I said or even implied any such thing.

    Or we can all assume that you're a liar.

    You notice how even Tommy Robinsons supporters didn't click like on your post? That's how fcuking dumb it is. They know you're just making sh1t up. Even in a very polarised discussion, people who should be on your side don't want to be associated with you. Even though they disagree with me they wouldn't even ascribe that to me.

    Pure childish post telling someone they didn't get there post liked . And if you had bothered to follow the thread you would see that not everyone who is disgusted by the case and the way Robinson was treated is a supporter of his. A lot of people fear this will be brushed under the carpet again like A lot of things these days.

    Where’s your answer when asked to prove he’s a racist?

    So you agree with him that I support suicide bombers?

    I'm pointing out that even people who disagree with me wouldn't even agree with him. It's not about how much people "like" him but how they don't agree with him on that. It wasn't about showing a lack of popularity but a lack of agreement. But you knew that didn't you.

    You however seen to like your point scoring. So how about you take on the challenge of defending his post? Or you could agree with me that it was stupid and an utter lie.

    So the difference between this case and that of say something from the metoo campaign is that there are minors involved?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,299 ✭✭✭✭The Backwards Man


    I must say I'm very shocked to read that supporters of Tommy are more interested in ogling at the photos of paedophiles than protecting the identies of their victims. Tommy himself is not like that at all.

    point scoring, lying, stupid posts. Seems to me point scoring is more a trait of your own. Don't get upset if I don't like your post.

    If anybody would like to imitate their hero Tommy. There are plenty of child abuse cases in Ireland ongoing with reporting restrictions in place.

    You just need to turn up outside the court, pretend your a journalist just like Tommy, and start live streaming and videoing people going into court.

    Let us know how you got on, after you get out of prison.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,030 ✭✭✭thebull85


    Fake racist tweets that a 5 year old could put together.


    Must try harder


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,165 ✭✭✭Captain Obvious


    The same people on here defending Robinson would be having a field day if a Muslim grooming gang got off a conviction because of a mistrial. Court reporting restrictions exist for a reason. Robinson could have reported on the trial like anyone else but that wouldn't have gotten him in the news. He gambled that he'd be treated lightly and he lost.

    Can i do this for all child abuse cases or do they have to be Muslim ones?

    What is wrong with you? You're actually attacking me for a post where I pointed out that no-one else here think I support suicide bombers


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,067 ✭✭✭Taytoland


    Should not have filmed them if he was told not to do so especially on a suspended sentence. So his own fault in that regard. We do not need to see videos on these Pakistani Muslim gangs who rape children all over the country, we all know they exist.

    I don't blame him for his views on Islamism, I hold similar views to him on it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,630 ✭✭✭✭Princess Consuela Bananahammock


    I know this is going to sound pedantic, and I know there's a rule against grammar Nazism, but can we PLEASE got one thing straight?

    There are no such words as "Muslimism" or "Islamsism": Islam is the religion; a Muslim is the person who practices the religion.

    Sorry to go back to basics, but if you want to try and give the impression that you know what you're talking about when it comes to religious ethnic groups and their influence on societal community relations, getting the basic words right is kind of a pre-requisite.

    Getting them so fanatically wrong makes you look like a complete and utter ****wit no matter what point you make.

    Historic cases where the victims were all adult at the time of the case.

    This is live case where some of the victims are still underage.

    How do you people still not get this? It’s to protect the victims and to ensure there’s no mistrial.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,068 ✭✭✭Tipsy McSwagger


    The ironic thing is there were people who wanted to report these scum Pakistani Muslim grooming gangs who targeted white underage girls, but were afraid to because of being labeled a racist. Tommy Robinson is reporting on it but gets labeled a racist, even though there's zero interest evidence to back this up.

    White girls have to sacrified on the altar of multiculturalism. How else can we have peaceful and tolerant societies like the UK and Sweden?

    If you can find any child abuse trials on here or the uk where there are 29 perpitrators on trial that aren't Muslim please let us know. Sod it, forget 29 try 9.

    There's a quota of abuse victims that has to be met now before it's distasteful enough to warrant protesting...?

    Not victims, perpetrators. These are large paedophile rings by and large composed of people of Bangladeshi and Pakistani descent who are committing gang rapes of children and teenagers. And these rings have, over the last 30 years, been protected by the elected local authorities and police services.

    If that isn't worth protesting, I don't know what is.

    Of course not. It's just the state looking the other way while Pakistanis raped and abused white Englands girls for years.

    Without Tommy Robinson's constant protesting, would the same state that was ignoring the victims, covering up the crimes and protecting the paedophile rings be prosecuting them now?

    Yes I can safely say Mr Robinson has nothing to do with the investigation and prosecution of the case he is trying to scupper.

    Less about race and more about the culture. There is rot inside some cultures that is becoming more publicly visible.

    Take a look at this for a great debate on the matter:

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,697 ✭✭✭DickSwiveller


    Jailed for reporting on muslim grooming gangs who have been operating freely because the authorities were afraid of being called racist. But sure, **** thousands of vulnerable children. As long as the virtue signalers can denounce an idiot like Robinson everything is ok.

    The idiot cycle continues.....


  • Site Banned Posts: 218 ✭✭A Pint of Goo

    Agreed. Pakistanis preying on white girls because they are seen as 'sluts for being white is in no way a racist crime. Not in any way what so ever.

    Are you for real? It is a fact that local authorities, police services and even child protection authorities were ignoring and covering up these crimes for the last 30 years at least. When he first started his protests, he was called a racist, made fun of (including by me) and dismissed out of hand, and yet he was proven right all along.

    Even if it turns out that he is a bigot, you have to acknowledge the fact that he was doing his absolute best to publicize these crimes and their coverups and bring them to public knowledge.

    Just to clarify for Dick here and people who are completely unaware of what they are talking about, Tommy Robinson was videoing people going into a trial of a grooming gang (apparently being tried for a crime is "operating freely"). His actions could have damaged the trial and allowed the accused people to go free. Dick, can you explain why you would be in favour of those men getting a mistrial?

    None of which excuses his attempts to damage this trial. Why do you think those men should have been denied a fair trial and released?

    The latest video does not appear to show him recording anyone other than himself. Would a reasonable person construe that as breach of the peace?

    Seriously though - that was my point: if the perpetrators are Christian, it somehow becomes in some way less distasteful or less worthy of protest...?

    I'm not saying that either one is in any way acceptable, I'm just trying to promote consistency if people want to make the perpetrator's religion an issue.

    Of course I'm familiar with our history. I'm sure therefore you agree that covering up sexual violence, so as not to offend the Catholic Church or the Multicult is stupid and wrong.
