Is it just me or have SF vanished?

Masks, black attire, a volley of shots etc would be traditional paramiltary trappings to me.

Whiteshirts? I was at a funeral yesterday for a young lad who sadly passed and all his school friends lined the road in their trousers and white shirts

Little paramilitary ****s

I think those kids were wearing their school uniforms, so yes, the uniform comparison is apt, the Sinn Fein lads were wearing their paramiltary uniform. Glad you agree.

Lies.

All Sinn Féin lads were not wearing white shirts. Pearse, Gerry, Mary Lou all had suits on and many more

Presumably Charlie turned up at the wrong funeral so?

Blanch has turned the faux outrage meter up to 12 this afternoon i see.

I see its story two on RTE with MON apologising for any people upset having missed funerals and it's not featured at all on the Times....but they have the inevitable opinion piece on how the IRA control SF.
With many ex IRA SF politicians and many ex IRA in the party, pretty obvious.
Last few days have been like the run up to the election. Skip important stories to stir nonsense.

Interesting apology!

From the 'apology' :

"No family's grief is more important than another's," she said in a statement.

Words mean nothing to sf, maybe they should think about switching to Japanese for the next few months it would about as clear.

SF is showing again that they are more important in their own eyes and estimation than anyone else.

See Mary Lou apologising for "any hurt" caused by attending funeral no word at all for the families of those murdered by "Big Bobby"

And poor old Francie posting a picture of a murdered Guards funeral and referring to it as "paramilitary" - because he simply can't tell the difference

Christ almighty. We have already had someone compare the Sinn Fein thugs in white shirts to schoolchildren. Now we are equating Sinn Fein thugs to the Gardai. Pathetic.

Her actions suggest she reckons her grief at Bobby Storey was significantly more important than the hundreds of families who couldn't go to the funerals of their loved ones but what can you expect from the Shinners.

I also am enjoying the "stop politicising the fact M'ON flagrantly broke the rules her very govt had put in place!!" **** when the Shinnerbots were jumping up and down with glee that time Leo went to the Phoenix Park with his partner.

Thought this was about absence of social distancing, have I missed something?

The only thing people are comparing was the mourners at both at times not adhering to the social distancing measures put in place by the last caretaker govt.

I am sure I'm not the only one noticed, there was not a whisper about the guidelines being disregarded at Garda Horkans afterwards, or to say it another way people didn't try and use his funeral to politically point score, and feign outrage about the lapse of adhering to the health guidelines. People wanted to pay their respects, many were upset, these things happen, understandably so.

It's when people started to whinge that the exact same guideline's were being disregarded at the funeral of the Sinn Fein member, people started to (rightfully in my opinion) stand back and say, hang on..... A few days ago there wasn't a peep out of the same cretins unashamedly using a funeral to point score.

some of you are just the same kind of scum that bob story was and I can hope the same agony awaits

Why?

Because some folk know when someone is trying to piss down their neck and tell them it's raining?

Mary Lou is a thug? Have you any evidence to back this up?

After the Maurice McCabe scandal do you think all Gardaí were thugs like the way they treated him?

Repeatedly pointed out,Garda Horkans funeral was a State funeral so an entirely different case altogether

So state funeral is exempt from restrictions?

I've discussed that in subsequent pages from where you quoted me
I'd imagine it is in terms of the numbers actively participating in the state part similar to Gardai on duty not being bound by numbers congregating or the 5km or 20km rule
Soc distancing and hygiene wouldn't be an exemption and would have been followed

She literally says, "No family's grief is more important than another's",
and you follow it with, "SF is showing again that they are more important in their own eyes and estimation than anyone else" :rolleyes:

You are swallowing complete fabrications.
Nobody compared either man.
People rightly called out the hypocrisy of condemning one funeral because it was SF but giving the Garda one a free pass.
We don't know any stories about the Garda and it would be inappropriate to use the man to try argue a flawed point.

It was responding to a claim anyone in a shirt and tie was in a paramilitary uniform.

No we haven't.

You claimed there was something nefarious about people wearing shirts and ties. People are pointing out how ridiculous that is by giving comparisons. You knew that though.

I have no idea if Adams was there or not, but the IRA's Billy McMillen was one of those who drew up NICRA's constitution and signed it.



Get the history straight Bonnie and proceed from there.

I know all about NICRA. Unlike you whose historical knowledge is based on brief visits to Wikipedia.

McMillan was on NICRA executive. Do you think himself and Adams were besties

(Adams was never on NICRA executive. He was on IRA Army Council and attended conventions up to the very last one.)

A chap gets a bit tired of the likes of you trying to tell them stuff by the way. Especially when you haven't a breeze about the history of the republican movement.)

Schoolchildren wearing identical white shirts as part of uniform - no problem
