Presumably based on evidence and knowledge they have of the incident and the perpetrator. I'd be more concerned if he believed Barbara off Facebook and her version of events.

I wonder why they might be lying. 🤔 Edited November 25, 2023 by Mounts Kipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes it all OK does it? Life of a teacher. Go to school, Go to bigger school. University. School. One way thinking. What the absolute fck are you rambling on about now??? It's getting a bit pathetic that you keep feeling the need to bring my job into it whenever you disagree. You've jumped to a lot of conclusions here. Where the hell did you get the idea that I was quite happy about anything to do with this incident? My feeling, which will no doubt be shared by many in Ireland, is that nobody should be rioting and that we should wait for all the details to emerge. It's massively irresponsible and disrespectful to the families affected. The police have said this isn't terror related and what's needed right now is calm. The reaction of those protestors was irresponsible and to see a fair few folk sympathising with them on here is ridiculous. I'll pass you my registration number if you want to call the GTCS and get me sacked for this horrific opinion? I'm sure they'd be delighted to hear your thoughts.

"At 5.22pm on Thursday, a voice message from an account called “Kill all immigrants” went into a private, invitee-only Telegram group titled “Enough is Enough”. “They can’t control us all." “At seven o’clock, be in town. Everybody bally [balaclava] up, towel up, and any f---ing gypo, foreigner, anyone, just kill them. Just f---ing kill them. Let’s get this on the f---ing news" Courtesy of the group organising this through Telegram. Lovely lads eh, salt of the earth people standing up for their country. Anyone defending them is fckn idiot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even those in the pro immigration camp can't hide that there are problems and the numbers are unsustainable. The UK figures coming out last week were huge. It's easier for folk who have the economic means and less problems accessing housing to belittle concerns around immigration. But the pricks rioting in Dublin are vile. Hijacking an incident with no knowledge, attacking police, and blaming people who aren't responsible. Backbone my arse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that’s coming from somebody only here because of that Irish migration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. A woman who was clearly fucking deranged did it. A few argued that she was of foreign extraction so it should never have happened, and possibly so. But I’d be willing to bet the same NHS workers that tried to save her would have included foreigners here to prop up the staff numbers. Still makes me sick to the stomach thinking about that poor girl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
