The police routinely baton innocent bystanders, journalists etc when let off the leash. Why should this instance be any different? Saying " I wouldn't be surprised if an innocent bystander got a whack" is hardly controversial.
I'm assuming that the guards like to baton people that aren't doing anything wrong? Yes, I am. Because they do, have done it hundreds of times in the past, and like to do it any time there's any protest that 'kicks off' in any way.You’re still not getting it. You are making assumptions based on your own inherent bias, devoid of evidence. We all need to cut that shit out or we’re no better than those people protesting.
No, it's not a joke. How regularly do the Irish guards baton "innocent bystanders, journalists etc"?
I've gone back through the comments and looked at how many calls for harsher sentences and more skull cracking there have been. I can see exactly one for the former and none for the latter. Don't despair LiliI despair a bit in here when I see everyone calling for harsher sentences and more skull cracking because they don't like the anti-Covid groups.
Condoning more skull cracking is implied by you and explicitly approved by prefuse.I've gone back through the comments and looked at how many calls for harsher sentences and more skull cracking there have been. I can see exactly one for the former and none for the latter. Don't despair Lili
I think it's all about context here. No one here is honestly saying that they want to live in a totalitarian police state. I think what most people are saying is that what happened on Saturday was exceptional and they can't really blame the guards for their reaction to what happened. They were essentially being shot at and I think it's kind of fair enough to say that, put in the same circumstances, guard or not, most people wouldn't react to well to it.Condoning more skull cracking is implied by you and explicitly approved by prefuse.
Wanting harsher sentencing is implied by Ernesto and called for by rettucs.
Now listen I admit I am drawing conclusions from context that don't 100% represent everyone's opinion and beliefs in all it's variations, and I don't actually think anyone on here is some kind of hard-right fascist, but I am looking at the reactions here and thinking if the right on people of thumped are happy for the guards to go wild (which in my opinion is what is happening) then what hope for the journal commentator rest of the country?
Sure, that's more or less exactly what I said in my initial post.I think it's all about context here. No one here is honestly saying that they want to live in a totalitarian police state.

I agree but also my racist uncle on FB and his dope mates have all been stuck at home going stir crazy as well. They're not doing well. I also gave an example of how a community dealt with this issue without needing a baton charge cheered on by the woke nephews.Also, I think there's a lot of anger spilling out here at the groups that organised and took part in what happened. We've all spent nearly a year in lockdown, it's been really fucking shit, most of us want it to end. We want to see our friends and families again. We don't it prolonged any further because of Justin Barrett, your racist uncle on fb and a bunch of dopes that believe that lizard people have taken over RTE.
Yes, but then you strayed into looking for the worst possible interpretation of what your thumped buddies were saying. SHAME ON YOU!Sure, that's more or less exactly what I said in my initial post.
yep, it's OK for cops to get violent as long as it's people we disagree with.Cops fighting right wingers = everybody wins
This all comes down to me being ashamed of myself that my first reaction to seeing the video is "yeah take that yiz fuckin pricks, get em guards"Yes, but then you strayed into looking for the worst possible interpretation of what your thumped buddies were saying. SHAME ON YOU!
Yep I know two St Michael’s House people that have had both their doses. A neighbour works in a hospital (not a medical job) has had his two as well.few people i know have the vaccine now. one works for st. michael's house, so as a lot of their clients have underlying health issues, she obviously was considered high risk (more in terms of passing it on than contracting it herself, i guess).
