  1. The wait and see approach by gardai failed again, will they learn from this hopefully but I doubt it

    Good to know that the Gardai are monitoring the cranks online. Some of the horrific stuff I read….some of you honestly need to be locked up in a padded cell.

    Fair play to the soldiers on duty that day. We all would have understood if the attacker had been shot but taking down an armed and violent attacker by wrestling him shows serious restraint and bravery.

    Fr Murphy is the nicest guy you could meet. Absolute gentleman.

  4. ~~I’m going to assume this is referring to anti-immigration terror. Are they going to be able to provide more detail here? Even if the suspect is a minor?~~

    Edit: nevermind. Missed a crucial piece of info in the article. It’s Islamic terror.
