I'm sure if she does someone will post it up here.

I wouldn't have a clue, nor care, what she thinks about any issue if it wasn't for her fanclub on boards discussing her every utterance.

It'll be interesting to see how many imbeciles actually vote for him.

Funny, exact same rhetoric was used in another thread were a poster called anyone and everyone who voted for Trump a retard. That's literally millions of people exercising their democratic votes. Retards they were called. Don't agree with me, you're a mentally impaired individual. That's what you and your ilk have amounted to saying lately. Guess what? The wheels are coming off and people are only gonna take so much until someone just says ''FUCK IT'' and calls it like it is. Like this guy has. I hope there's a sh*t-tonne more to come.

Unfortunately they seem quite happy with knives and guns as well.
Slash hooks, baseball bats etc being brought to funerals by the "holiest" sections of our community.
And you wonder why people are wary of them or feel downright intimidated?

Ah yes, the dreaded pseudo intellectuals who parrot every talking point they here and can't think critically. Their name calling has wore thin at this stage.

This day just gets better and better, I know Casey hasn't a hope against the garden gnome but I'll vote for him anyway.

Good 'man' - he needs all the help he can get languishing within margin of error support.

So let me get this right, you're condemning someone who made a sweeping generalisation about Trump supporters but you're supporting Casey who made sweeping generalisations about Travellers.....you're either very confused or just a hypocrite...which is it?

Whilst you've a right to be angry with the specific people who allegedly stole your property the rest of your post is lazy, cliched unsubstantiated bullsh!t, it's a pity you needed to undermine your post to such a degree.

Nobody is a retard for exercising their right to vote. To call a Trump voter retarded is a baseless and ignorant generalisation.

Casey's generalisations about Traveller's were neither baseless nor ignorant and can be backed up fairly well by facts and figures from recent censuses.

See the difference?

Declaring travelers to have their own ethnicity is like declaring the Healy Raes as one. Equally different ways of life from the average Irish person.

One wants to live in a caravan (some not on other people's land, but the vast majority of them, imposing on private or public land against the wishes of just about everyone else).

The other wants to drink and drive despite the hundreds of studies proving that it's a spectacularly bad idea.

Neither warrants that designation. That's not racist, it's fact.

I've no doubt there is someone, somewhere who has some idea of what you're babbling about and when you meet them, cling on to them so you won't be lonely!!!

I didn't call anyone a 'retard' and I don't agree with that characterisation of Trump voters, it's not a term I use and it doesn't explain what happened with Trump.

Now that we've cleared up your confusion on that one, let's deal with the rest of your confusion.

I responded to a poster who was critiquing someone over making generalisations yet endorsing someone else who was doing the very same thing, that's hypocrisy in most people's books.

You understand now?

Ya the place they are in belong to receivers so the council would not get involved only now are, the garda will do nothing as private property and the receivers well the lest said about them the better. Things seem to be rolling a bit now (maybe the receiver is looking to sell) so in a year or 2 maybe
