    The usual disappearing act. We've all seen it before.

    The Scarlet Pimpernel of boards.

    Glazers Out!

    Someone needs to send that to ebun. Though somehow I reckon she doesn't get humour or anyone else's pov other than her own warped view of the universe tbh ...

    I do wonder does she actually have those views or is riding the gravy train?

    First they came for the socialists...

    She blocked me and like Luke O'Neil I'd say she can vet now who can post.

    He has all posts blocked unless he agrees to add you or knows you....

    Nobody has got back to me, UCD, ebun, Chu, defence minister, luke

    Wonder will we get a factcheck from the media on the equally daft claims that he only had a butter knife in his possession, that there were 35 gardai at the scene, that no pepper spray or tasers were deployed and that 15 "racist ass cops" shot him only because he was black and for no other reason. Oh and that he never did anything to anyone - ever.


    Fact checking only goes one way and they will bend over backwards in the process of doing so. 'He was of good character and wasn't known to the Gardai ....(but he was arrested last year semantics semantics semantics)'

    I’m going to guess - never ?

    She holds them, very racist to white people and believes her own hype.

    I got the feeling she hates Ireland but I didn’t want to raise it as I’m fairly certain that would be racism.

    She's certainly doing well.

    Would also appear she is from a fairly privileged background (her father detailed as a chief' and a retired elected politician in Nigeria in her online biography) She arrived in Ireland around 2002 and had a child soon after. Apparently had notions of being a writer of fiction and delved into self published chick lit framed on women in patriarchal Nigeria and Ireland - apparently influenced by reading Danielle Steel and Mills and Boon amongst others. Somewhat autobiographical perhaps?

    Scientist that thinks we should embrace covid and wear masks every winter and he made a fortune setting up a business in a public funded lab, he still has his own office there and sold company for around €350million.

    He is mad imo.

    She’s still writing the fiction I see.

    Is he the scientist Pat Kenny interviews nearly every morning on Newstalk radio?

    This explanation for the lack of reference to certain violent incidents in the aftermath of the Nkencho killing was posted on a different thread in this forum.

    https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=115767083#post115767083
    It's some legal grey area bull crap.

    https://www.irishtimes.com/opinion/media-must-act-to-ensure-crime-reporting-is-fair-and-balanced-1.943313

    There's also the reasons for the alleged inciting incident. It's still a sensitive topic, there's probably gonna be a an inquest as to the events leading up to it, and because of that, RTE have to sit on the sidelines.

    There are also some very... dangerous, individuals stoking the flames rn.
    RTE put one foot wrong, and things could go very badly.

    Given that nobody has yet been charged in connection with the death or with the incidents that took place in its aftermath, the sub judice rule does not yet apply.

    Furthermore, the inquest is a long way away in the future and so the 'fade factor' will protect the jury's integrity. Besides, the concern of an inquest jury being prejudiced is not as great as it is in relation to the jury in a criminal trial.

    I think you are mixing up the words mad and clever.

    Clever in the sense he is pushing the vaccines as it's in this own interests.....

    I don't trust him to be honest and I honestly think there should be more used then just him and a balanced debate on it.


    I can see this blowing up like before where the HSE or gubernment end up paying out huge compensation for issues arising from these vaccine or that people state it is and say no way to disprove.

    was her father not one of those tin pot generals in Nigeria, you know a grinning warlord ?

    Any further protests or calls for blood?

    The thread seems to have lost all the steam.

    There is something extremely off about Ebun Joseph.

    As an aside, never trust someone who has self-published fiction. I've met a couple of people who have done so, and they've always been fruitcakes with a hint of narcissism.

    Looks like they've got an ambulance chaser onboard now, so the threats have stopped.

    I passed by the protest at Blanchardstown Garda station earlier. Number of protesters have diminished since last week.

    Passed a group of 30 or so when I was out a while ago heading down the Dublin Road in Drogheda towards town. They've been 'protesting' here a few times since the weekend. Given the direction they seemed to be coming from I reckon they got the train up from a certain north Dublin town. All of them wearing the same goose or nike jackets.

    sounds like essential travel to me …...

    Yeah, it would do.
    People will go on with their lives. The only ones who it will continue to effect are those closet to the George. Let's be honest people lose interest. Smaller numbers as days go by.

    But it's a bit mad for anyone to be protesting at this point with the number of Corona cases. Even if someone thinks it was absolutely wrong what happened to him ... well to them I say your life and those closet to you is what matters right now. George is dead. No protesting in the world is going to change that. But what you can do is reduce the risk of catching Corona by not protesting. By not travelling.

    What is the aim of the protests?
