    I've clearly made the point that people have a right to peacefully protest. And that you are coming across as an unhinged extremist with your views.

    That's coherent and it's not whataboutery. And I've never said you don't have a right to an opinion - just that you have the opinions of an extremist.

    You probably need to put your phone down for a while.

    Hardly Extreme. There's justifiable time's to protest, the middle of a pandemic is not one of them expecially when that leads to more death and expecially when they're outright trying to aggrivate the situation and have no coherent argument or are simply incapable of one.

    Have you even a real argument to make here? Or are you just trying badly to troll? If not then your the one who should put the phone down.

    Absolutely agree, my issue is that gemma and her loons are condemned (rightly so) while others (blm) got a pass for some mad reason

    I made my argument based on your initial post of saying we should ban peaceful protests, wished death on peaceful protesters and stated we should imprison them for protesting? They are extreme views. That's my argument.

    Serious question: Should the BLM protests been banned, should we wish death on those in that protest, and should we have imprisoned them?

    Were they aggravating the situation? Did those protests lead to more death?

    The march yesterday had nothing to do with Gemma O'Doherty, in fact it appears she was told she was was not welcome there.

    Fascists? truly pathetic take. The march was about the lockdown, facemasks, nursing homes, economic disaster.
    How you could regard that as fascist is beyond me...unless of course you regard anyone who deviates as much as a millimetre from your own position as a fascist. Which seems to be the case.
    Which makes you an out and out extremist.

    Let's drop the hyperbole here, protesting at a time like this is inappropiate at best and shouldnt be happening at all, THIS protest in paticular because of what they advocate should not be allowed during the current circumstances is they deliberately want to make things worse.

    Also if you read my comment properly its not that I wished them all dead but that its a pity that theyre not the ones who die from this and not innocent bystanders who these same idiots would infect and kill. Its disgust at those who ignore all warnings not being the only ones to suffer the folly of their own stupidity and instead causing inflicting collateral damage.

    You like painting someone as extreme as it suits you to do so to try and write off my argument but you fail to realise that its based on an absolute disgust at WHAT they protest about and how people and families have suffered from this. Not to mention in the most advanced time in history with so much verifiale infirmation around us that people can behave and act so goddamn stupid.

    You want an argument pick one with a real cause and concern not one with an agenda based on pig ignorance and malignant stupidity.

    The march was a recruitment drive by a handful of far right "activists" under the guise of protesting the lockdown, facemasks, nursing homes, economic disaster.

    Its simply a way for them to make more money. All of them looking for donations from their "followers". Why else do they have "donate" links and paypal links in their online bios?

    Those poor bewildered people yesterday thinking they were actually protesting.

    Not from me they didn't anyway. I get it why protests spilled onto the streets in America, but there was no need for it in Dublin and Cork. Not in the middle of a pandemic. However at least the BLM protesters were wearing masks for the most part.

    Because the crowd it attracted were a mix of conspiracy theorists and white supremacists... Look here's Britain First... Also had the National Party and Irish Freedom Party organising it.

    So if you agree with the content of the protest, you will support their right to protest. But if you think the protest is stupid, you will argue they should be banned, dead, and imprisoned.

    Answer my questions about the BLM protests and stop waffling like a looney.

    The National Party are white supremacists. The IFP tend to veer heavily in that direction. Britain First are and even killed a politician. The people in attendance are basically the same lot who show up to National Party rallies... Yellow Vests Ireland also helped organise, also far right and have an obsession with immigration...


    But Clarence, you agree with those ideals, no?

    Being far right doesnt equate to facist in itself and over use of the term just waters it down. I wouldnt normally associate protesting alledged police and government oppression and calling for freedom of choice as being naturally right wing though

    No, I don't agree that having a problem with unrestricted immigration has anything to do with 'white supremacism'
    I don't think you do either tbh.

    The hypocrisy of the "my body, my choice" anti-mask wearers are the same group that advocate for anti choice when it comes to women's bodies.

    But this crowd would have to share around the meagre few brain cells they have in order to see that

    It really has come to something when you have fascists and qanon conspiracy theorists holding marches in the middle of a pandemic and Jedward and Sinead O'Connor as the voice of reason.

    .

    If you're starting viewpoint is "unrestricted immigration" then your opinion is extremely ill informed and you really should do a lot of homework on the issue before you form an opinion....

    That is of course unless your starting viewpoint is' black is bad'.... Then it really doesn't matter what the facts are

    Do you think Britain First and the National Party are white supremacists? Barrett regularly made racist remarks directed at Hazel Chu and refused to even recognize her as Irish iirc. He even used give speeches to Nazis... Ireland doesn't have unrestricted immigration...
