Bad two days after the dentist.
But I was there in spirit (also with Pitstop Ploughshares, Rossport Five yesterday).
You can add my name to the petition.

Sorry Guys,

The bad news for you is that deportations are going to rise sharply in the coming months and this demo won't make a blind bit of a difference.

Shouldn't that be 'Sorry Gals'?

that none of these women it appears can count on the support of the Irish gay and lesbian community.
Maybe they're too straight or not fashionable enough.
Possibly if there was a wonderful movie touchingly and shockingly exposing their route to self-awareness and love with little flashback scenes to the old country and a cameo of the minister of justice speaking to a PD conference, made on 36mm with qiurky camera angles and a really good sound track the Irish gay and lesbian community would show support.

Great to hear from the right...

Can I ask you how you've dealt with the occupation of your country by a foreign power in the North of ireland, the use of this island as a military transit route by the USA and the redirection of the material wealth of the nation into the coffers of multi-nationals..?

or as I suspect you only think that a bit of colour in your neighbourhood is the cause of the destruction of irirsh culture...a few immigrants are soft targets.

.the real threat is out there...

ps : communism is an irish invention.

oh?

please explain! please do :-)

Sorry but you have been brainwashed.

We have a small population and the need for immigration is vital.

Immigrants put more into the economy than they take out.
The majority of immigrants are "white" people like you just see the people of colour
as a problem..
The basic concepts of communism are to be found in the celtic christian tradition and the previous celtic community...economically the critique of capitalism is a "german" invention but as the late pope once said; true communism is christianity without god...

racism divides us, irish culture grows and assimilates..your culture of exclusion and ignorance is on the way out....

Here we go again - the same old nazi nuts using a new set of names in their crusade for an Ireland where we all go back to dancing at the crossroads.

They funny thing is their fuher is himself a slum landlord most of whose tenants are migrants. Sort of gives away the real agenda boys!

Thanks for confirming my suspicions...

Please meet us on the battlefield on we will prove to you who is the master race...

In the end fools and ignorant racists like you can only hide behind mis-information, alarmist fantasy and the stupidity of your idealogy...

Ireland will always be a bastion of resistance to racism...go home to england where your beliefs came from.

Hey Majoe,

I don't know who the other guy is - an ip check is all it takes to verify that - think you are up to that simple technical task???

I happen to agree with him on most points, simple as that! Actually most Irish people agree with our perception of things, look at the result of the Citizenship referendum.

In the end the nazi cult is hypocrisy at the best and anti-irish at the worst.

Slum land lords..wife-beaters...kiddy fiddlers all hiding behind their nazi ideology

As you are using the referendum as an example of the views of the irish people..why not put your racist views to the test and stand as a racist whites only party in the elections , you've obviously got the support of the people....

Looking forward to being i.d and meeting you scum in person...

80% of the those who voted in a 26 county referendum voted for a change in the constitution...

The term scum goes to racists like you who seek to spread their nazi filth on this island.

The majority of the people on this island when the facts are explained to them will welcome a "colour free" immigration programme...

please exercise your democratic right to march..and we'll see how many of you nazis turn up...remember 1996...

The majority of the Irish people have no problem whatsoever with the colour of a person - this includes me. The reason we voted yes in such large numbers was to stop the mass abuse of our immigration system by West African's and to a certain extent eastern Europeans - i.e black and white. The colour of a persons skin does not come into it as far as I am concerned. Every other Country in the EU changed its citizenship rules - all we did was follow their actions.

The simple fact is that the people who are fleecing this divided island are the corrupt dublin administration and the six county elite.

It is only scapegoating and "make a scare, cause an issue" politics when immigration is flagged up as the only cause of corruption on this island...

All power to the people.
