    This’ll be a litmus test for how seriously the government is taking Loyalist-organised far right terrorism in Ireland; if this man voted for a certain opposition party, he’d be up in front of the Special Criminal Court on terrorism charges. Keen to see how they handle this.

    It’s all starting to come into focus now. The same crew of criminals involved at the head of most of these protests, and now openly embracing loyalists in it.

    Same shit happened with Brexit/Irexit too.

    Fascinating how much they struggle to stoke up any real xenophobia and racism in Ireland that they always have to resort to importing loyalists and englishmen to bulk out their numbers and do the dirty work.

    There are very few actual Irish people organising and inciting these protests.

  3. The last time people started assassinating government ministers and gardai they brought in internment camps, special criminal courts and hangings. It stopped very quickly. No longer an option except in a declared emergency.

  4. State needs to come down on these dopes like a ton of bricks. Over in the U.K. some of the lads who acted the prick in Southport a couple of weeks ago have already been arrested, tried, convicted and sent down for a couple of years. Can we have some of that please.

  5. I presume we all know who made the phone call…  its identical to the threat on McEntee

  6. Who is going curate his collection of used tissues when he’s in jail?

    These gobshites are always hard men from the shadows. Hide their faces at every opportunity. Cowards without a crowd to back them up.

    >On June 26, an anonymous caller rang a charity helpline and gave a codeword while claiming that a bomb had been placed at the family home of Simon Harris.

    Can anyone explain the part about a code word?

    Did the caller give a known codeword that means a serious threat or what does it mean?

    I’m confused here

  8. Judge Nolan will commend him for turning his life around and let him off with his 126th warning.

    “He’s just recently completely a course in Homemade Chemistry and hasn’t been fired in 3 weeks”.

    Oh and, “has a family”.

    Make an example out of him. This is very serious and shouldn’t be treated as being trivial. A few years in jail at an absolute minimum. You give these far-right loons an inch and they will take a mile.
