Seems to be mainly Nigerian. I was speaking to an ex who is Malawi and she thinks its ridiculous that gangs are attacking shops and innocent people. Apparently Nigerians don't have a great reputation on the continent of Africa either, according to her.

They are hated all over Africa. It is why they are displayed as they are in District 9

I think South Africans hate Nigerians more than white people lol

In the wake of the coronavirus, anti-foreigner sentiments are growing in South Africa. In September, thousands of South Africans marched along the streets with banners and placards demanding that Nigerians, Zimbabweans, and other foreigners leave their country. The protesters claimed that foreigners are taking away their jobs and committing crimes such as drugs and trafficking—the same narratives that have been used to attack foreigners and their properties in the past.

If you were standing on the street and someone was aggressively lunging towards you with a knife and there was an armed garda watching this unfold. Would you be thinking "why isn't he stopping him" or "I hope he doesn't shoot him"

So this guy wants land, i have uncle farmers who wouldn't give me a bit of land but this guy want to rock up and get land, he talks about Ireland being complicit in slave trade as 100 people here were compensated when slavery was abolished, talks about knowing your history, he should maybe realize Ireland was still under British rule when slavery was abolished.

He'd wanna watch Richard Harris in the JB Keane film 'The Field' if he thinks an Irish person is going to allow an 'outsider' take his land!!

The history of the Irish and 'land' being taken off us goes back 800++yrs. Its an argument that we as Irish will not tolerate. So - yer man can pack up his tent and try his luck in Azerbaijan or somewhere. The brass neck of him ......

Well, if they’re black, they have that in common I suppose? I would assume anyway, that being a member of the “black community” requires that you’re.. well black?

In that case, I don't think the Guard knew that the girl had been killed. At that point, Hennessy was a random fella in a car with a knife stabbing himself? Not putting anyone else in obvious danger in the moment the shot was fired.

Twitter conclusion -Tumbleweeds. No outpouring of shite.


In this case, man with a knife was threatening and it looks like they were lunging and trying to decapitate Guards
Twitter conclusion - Random Africans should be given free land and property in Ireland


I'm not saying the Guard was wrong in Hennessy case. Not at all. Just perplexed how someone could think that that incident was justified and think the recent one deserves some form of retribution against the Guard

of course the garda didn't know she was dead at that point , she wasn't found till two days later , The garda fired in that case because he believed that she was still in the car that she was the one about to be stabbed.
the garda in that case was subject to an internal enquiry a corners court and a gsco investigation as well as trail by media and social media with the usual imbecilic allegations and ill informed statements.

Hennessey's family pushed for the garda to be tried for manslaughter in spite of the fact that they had been in contact with hennessy while every garda in the county was looking for him and refused to inform the gardai of this.

remember the post office shooting in Lusk ? the garda that shot tow post office robbers ? he had a price put on every gardas head and a garda in Dublin was shot at with a shot gun as a result,

regardless of how justified a police shooting is there will always be so one with an alternate point of view ,

giving those people a platform is a mistake though

"Y didn't they call dis man a thug tho?!"
**Posts link of random white man doing abhorrent crime**

Answer: Because the Author chose not to use the word thug, not because an entire race believes all black people are Thugs. Who is to say the Author was even white.

Thugs wield knives and slash innocent people. Just my two cents folks. Peace out.

Sad reality is , if he cries and complains enough there will be plenty of clowns like coppinger, Smith and Daley to name a few will go on a crusade in the Dail to try and get them what they want and if not some other handout to keep them happy.

Might sound ludicrous but that seems to be the way in this country. All welcome, even if you don't want to work.

If I hear an inclination of this - I will personally run for Politics to stir-up public backlash on this. I have 2 kids that will NEVER get on the property ladder let alone get a free site. There is no way that when Coppinger and Smith are handing out free sites that my name will not be in that pile.....

But how do you define "black"?

Think that's a simple question? Not even apartheid South Africa could answer it adequately, and that was a society in which people were legally classified as Black (of mainly African ancestry), White (of mainly European ancestry) or Coloured (of very mixed Afro-European ancestry or Asian).

These classifications were important because they determined where you could live, whether you could vote, whom you could marry, even whom you could get up close and personal with.

And even THEY couldn't be definitive about it. There was an appeals process that one could invoke if one thought they had been wrongly categorised. So you could demand that you were not black at all, you were coloured. Or that you were not coloured at all, you were actually white!!

Remember that woman who was a race-equality advocate in the US for years and masquerading as black before her very white parents outed her? Can't remember her name.

Many people who would be called n-word in Europe or America would be called the equivalent of "whitey" in Africa because of their mixed heritage.

Race identity, huh? It's not a black and white matter!

Yeah but they are willingly creating an actual racial divide.

If white Irish people were proponants of a "white community", we would be hailed as racists. It doesnt matter if they are a minority.

Its de facto exclusionism based on race.

Identity politics again O. It sees colour and group affiliation as obsessively as any nazi. If you're White you're all the same and all the same "oppressors", hence that ignorant moron going on about the Irish being complicit and getting compensation for slavery. The joke is if he's Nigerian he would do well to remember that Nigeria was known as the Slave Coast and given he's not a descendant of one of those poor devils sent across the Atlantic the chances are significantly higher that his ancestors profited more from the slave trade than any given Irishman and they profited from it before and after the big bad White Man got into it and then banned it.

The traditional slave trade in Southern Nigeria preceded the arrival of European influence,[3] and continued locally long after the effective abolition of slavery in many other countries.[4]

With the arrival of the transatlantic slave trade, traditional slave traders in southeastern Nigeria became suppliers of slaves to European slave traders.[3] Although local slavery was officially prohibited by the colonial British administration from the mid-1880s,[5] they tacitly permitted it to continue well into the 1930s,[6] ending completely only in the 1940s.[4]

Read on about modern slavery in the kip and how apparently legality is often overlooked with different pre-existing cultural traditions, which view certain actions differently.[1] In Nigeria, certain traditions and religious practices have led to “the inevitable overlap between cultural, traditional, and religious practices as well as national legislation in many African states” which has had the power to exert extra-legal control over many lives resulting in modern-day slavery.[2] The most commons forms of modern slavery in Nigeria are human trafficking and child labor. Ah bit t'is culture y'know :rolleyes:

Bit excessive to shoot him dead?

The term is "Shoot to stop". It is very rare that a single round will immediately incapacitate someone, it requires hitting something critical to the physical act of moving such as the brain, spine, bones, etc. What normally stops people is actually a psychological effect of the body saying "Holy crap, something significant has just happened... oh, I've been shot, I'd better go down, this isn't good".

Death is not the intent, but is, however, a not uncommon side-effect.

We need more people like you. Too many Irish people just roll over for this. And I say same for any foreign national who works their ass off here and get nothing too if they demanded slice of the pie

If it does happen I hope get the full backing of the public.

While anecdotes arent worth much, Nigerians used to run a barbers on Manor street in Dublin, with "no whites allowed" on the window. Nice.

I used to do a bit of door work years ago and one night a week in an establishment was coined "Nigeria Night".....that was by the Nigerian punters btw, not staff. A gang of Nigerians used to turn up on the same night each week and there was always a lot of hassle, much more than normal. It was all hands on deck and used to be a disaster. Although, I have met many a nice Nigerian.

With the exception of the "Nigeria Night", I have never had a negative personal interaction with Nigerians or the "black community" in general. I have had far more problems with white Irish and travellers.

That being said, the importation of "BLM" activism into Ireland is worrying. We dont need extremism in any form (Left, Right or religious) and these shouty fcukers are displaying more racism and vitriol towards Ireland and Irish people, that it makes me wonder why the fcuk did they come here.

If you cant make it in Ireland, jaysis, its you thats the problem.

77% of asylum applications are rejected. And it 88% when it comes Nigerians

They were scamming before they arrived. DP needs to be fixed and one of the ways it can be fixed is by removing them immediately

A comment from Facebook:



Imagine you get a job in a shop when you're 15. Shelf stacking. You work your bollix off, by 20 you're a manager. Not on great money, but it looks good on the C.V. You have more responsibility, are expected in every weekend, you are sometimes there from open til close.

This work ethic convinces a bank to give you a loan. You put your blood sweat and tears into renting a unit, starting your own business, putting in hours in the first few years that makes your old management job seem like dole dossing in comparison. Just to get it off the ground and pay back your loan.


And this is what the left think is open season for looting and burning. You shoot one of ours, a gang of our welfare dependent wasters will loot your business, smack the wing mirrors off your car, brick your house, threaten to pull a self employed tradesman out of his van and burn it.

This is the Irish left in action. The workers movement, apparently.

Ridiculously stupid comment to be honest. A facebook comment does not represent the left.

I said earlier that the Left were against private property but someone disagreed. One of their issues with the Gardai is that the latter “uphold private property rights”.

This would explain why my brother was unfriended by a SJW on Facebook when he posted about finally getting his mortgage approved.

Seriously someone unfriended someone on facebook so every left wing person thinks something. Theres no logic there at all.

True but he doesn't seem to have much confidence in his kids becoming home owners. Maybe a more positive attitude is required.
