Awww Stephen, that’s one of the worst replies I’ve ever read fella.

Well, I definitely won’t be costing communities their safety, the taxpayer millions in security and the idealism of true patriots their legacy.., unlike Mr.Ryan, a loud mouthed thug with no true cause who cared less about his flag, he might as well have sh*t on it.

Stephen would you ever grow up. One less sc*umbag on our streets is a positive outcome.

Well said!

@Stephen Brown – He is doing plenty for his flag by just leaving it alone – and not dragging it through the backstreets of Dublin and beyond!

Stephen seems to have grown out rayher than up

Johnny Peter Griffin can say whatever he wants no matter how inane and pointless his comment may be :)

@ Stephen Browne. Do you not know who I am? I invented the Irish tricolour in 1848. google me! P.S. The white represents peace, that’s what the Irish people want now.

While I agree with your first remark (right on the money frankly speaking) I’d be inclined to disagree with your view on the Guards lack of response to the gun salute at the funeral. There’s nothing more desperate than a cornered rat, were the Gardai to corner one or more of the vermin hiding behind the veil of Republicanism who’s to say they wouldn’t open fire in desperation possibly injuring innocent persons nearby! Measured response was preferable!

Serious censorship issues with the Journal.ie these days! Never had a comment caught in their filter for ‘Offensive language’ before! Apparently terrorists can’t be referred to as s c u m! Baffling!

I wasn’t putting down the Garda. I was just pointing out how bad it has gotten and the serious threat these psychos pose to the state and its security. Why are you offended by me calling terrorists, sc*m? It is what it is. Hitler is sc*m hope that doesn’t offend anyone….

Sorry of I wasn’t clearer fella. I was trying to say I was in agreement with your ‘Terrorist sc*m’ description! These Criminals posing as Patriotsmare worth less than the shite I scrape of my shoe in my opinion! I was just saying that when you put the word TERRORIST and S-C-U-M together, you get a message up from Journal.ie saying its not allowed and has been flagged by a comment filter!!

How ironic that you use the word ‘peace’ in relation to a man who was part of a terrorist organisation.

Man arrested then give freedom if Dublin city. One less thug on the streets.

Who cares what the pic is?

Eh its a picture of the funeral of Alan Ryan. The article is about the Alan Ryan murder investigation.

See the link? Alan Ryan Alan Ryan

And? It’s a picture as if it bloody matters

Bravo Emmet well pointed out there, but the article relates to the murder investigation, not the investigation of paramilitary activity at the funeral, two completely separate incidents
