    but of course we have to be PC and not say anything against the Travellers - a race of "people" where I think Genocide would be the best solution.

    FACT - a favour to society it would be.

    Joe mentioned in his preamble yesterday (on the Ronan Collins Show) that the attackers were Travellers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,495 ✭✭✭✭eviltwin


    That's nonsense. How would you know if you were right?

    ALl you're really saying is that you think you can judge people from their accents, which is a fool's game.

    There is a simple solution to this

    If you don't want to get labeled as scum, don't act like scum.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,397 ✭✭✭Paparazzo


    Even if these attackers were Travellers (of which we have no proof), it is hardly relevant to all travellers is it?

    I presume they were Irish, so can we draw inferences from their actions to all Irish people? They were all male, so does every man have to answer for them?

    It's crazy to think like that, unless you want to rave about genocide, identifying people by the way the way they talk etc etc etc

    Who said it was? Entire post is a strawman argument.

    Anyway, joe wrapped up that story quick enough after the "T" word was mentioned.

    So you hold all travellers responsible for the alleged actions of these alleged travellers?

    This is Groundhog Radio. I hope the Mahon Tribunal is published tomorrow to knock this topic off the airwaves.

    But you've underdeclared tax, that's the whole f*ckin' point of this.

    No I don't, I actually live beside travellers, work with some and have no problem with them cause they know how to behave.

    Anyone who attacks a family over a parking space is scum. Background isn't an issue.

    But she is looking for witnesses...it makes sense to narrow down the field in case a listener would know the people involved.

    You quoted the wrong post then. All bijapos said was "Bad publicity for the Travellers so he has the phone switched off."

    Anyway, it's pensions now, so I'm off


  • Registered Users Posts: 43,028 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    Just pay the fcuking tax


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,730 ✭✭✭europa11


    Oh, for the love and honour of f*ck, Joe will you drop this tiresome tirade.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,873 ✭✭✭Skid


    Zzzzzzzz ...


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,897 ✭✭✭yosser hughes


    Joe can't believe that a retired solicitor would deign to do a menial job. All sorts of people do all sorts of jobs.

    Joe take your patrionising Well Done and please go shove it up your hole! I'm sick of pensioners and how brilliant they were for working! What does he think we all do now, listen to him, Oh wait...... :o

    Her husband wasn't killed, he died.

    Awful story, but he shouldn't put that sort of spin on it.

    How are the actions of four people, bad publicity for an entire community they (might) belong to?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 334 ✭✭nosey guy


    Duffy your empathetic tones can only be matched by an alcohol addled teenager.


  • Registered Users Posts: 43,028 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    Was this the octopus attack?

    Its not just 4 people though, ask anyone who lives near travellers about the reality and you'll soon see a small minority of people can make a lot of trouble for the majority.

    No it was thermal shock.

    I missed the start of her tale this time, did she have the baby yet? Awful story but not the place for her. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,495 ✭✭✭✭eviltwin


    Last time she was on there was mention of a jellyfish attack...quite common on that coastline at certain times of the year.


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 14,121 Mod ✭✭✭✭pc7


    Was this the octopus attack?

    From what I remember she things it was a sting from something and loads started ringing in when she was on saying they knew other stories the same in Portugal.
