Several Garda Special Branch detectives mingled with anti-war marchers in Cork on Saturday. They were spying on dangerous Green Party, Labour, Sinn Fein and PANA types. Amongst the threats they were monitoring were people giving out leaflets, stilt walkers and people carrying giant puppets.

The march organised by the Cork Anti-War Campaign contain hundreds of children in prams and holding hands with Mammy and Daddy. The danger to State Security was clear.

Fortunately the fearless Gardai were there to secure our civilisation.

The detectives included one who spent most of his career sitting on his ass in a car outside the SF office in Cork city, another who was caught stealing SFs rubbish bags one night and others who specialise in collecting names and addresses.
