Nail your colours to the mast Chuck but put the fecking gun down first. Are you Fine Gael/IRA, Fianna Fáil/IRA or Labour/ICA?

Chuck – I think it enough to state that there is no foundation to his opinion without making assumptions that anyone who is from any Irish speaking area of Ireland being a “Shinner”.

Chuck. Based on that “logic”, you’ll have to hold a demonstration outside Aodhán Ó Ríordáin, the Labour TD and according to your way of thinking the head dissident Republican in Dublin.

You sir are a pleasure to have in politics, everyside can point at you and say what a knob head, and feel that they have common ground instantly.

@ Aoife Barry “Andrew Allen was the first person executed by Republican Action Against Drugs (RAAD), when he was shot in Buncrana, Co Donegal on 9 February this year.”

Murdered not “executed”.

There should be NO debate here at all!
The topic/news head says it all.
You’re either in favour for, or against?

Personally, I’m against any form of Intimidation/bullying.
These gombeens don’t have cause anymore, and are nothing short of murderous cowards!

End!

Chuck – Am I for real? Yes – considering I seem to be the only person speaking on a factual basis on here. Where exactly do you find your information? Every single Sinn Fein activist I know is anti-drugs. Perhaps if you got to know people within the party, you’d see that too. There are no drug-dealing within the ranks of Sinn Féin. It’s very easy for you to make absurd claims on the internet where you don’t have to be held accountable for your comments. Grow up for christ’s sake, and stop repeating regurgitated nonsense that has never stood any test of veracity.

And as for my avitar [sic] – I was involved in the Irish language long before I ever knew what politics was. Not all Irish language speakers are ‘Shinners’, and not all ‘Shinners’ are Irish language speakers. Leave the ad hominem bollocks at the bar-stool.

Some media outlets can get enough Republican bashing in but i think people are growing tired of branding one side and letting the others off scott free.To be a journalist or reporter you have to be a single minded Republcan basher no matter what..There’s 13yr old children been shot a in Spain fighting also for their rights which look like has been robbed from them by yet another establishment and not one word about it in the Irish mediacircles ..Any one with a nose for a story would be all over it.

If they are then you need to go to the Guards, if u won’t do that, then u need to go to Brian Hayes, fanatical antic Republican in FG and give him information that he can release under Dáil priviledge.

Isn’t it strange, that for all the bitterness and hatred that the Gardaí and the RUC have to shinners and provo’s that they have never caught one of them with drugs, even though it would be international headline news and destroy the Republican movement and SF as a political party. They have according to your logic, no trouble in killing IRA and shinners, or following them 24/7, bugging their houses, cars, phones etc etc but for some reason they held off on destroying them in the eyes of the communities that the received support and shelter in .
Does that really make sense, fine I get it, u hate them, but does what you imagine to be true make any sense. If u wanted to deal drugs, you’d hardly join an Org. that was at conflict and the no. 1 target for the Gardaí and one of the most powerful armies and intelligence services in the world

Beyond the pale by the PSNI to harass the Mayor of the city. Zero justification for it.

Long spells in prison, out for a few months and back in for more. That’s not heroic or patriotic. That’s just dumb. What about the wives, mothers, sons daughters and fathers of your heroes? Ask them how it feels to see their family members imprisoned, & for what? Your views are so skewed it beggars belief. Rose tinted goggles, take them off and come live in the real world

They’re never very far from controversy are they. Thugs in suits. The mask continues to slip…

Trying to divert attention again fagan? Will you ever get tired of that old trick.
