Enoch Burke turns up to school again despite sacking - read OP before posting

--

All their friends have been banned from the thread. Of course they're bored. If the anti-trans brigade hadn't been banned, I'm sure we would have seen more of Furze.

Will Burke take the week off for mid term break, or will he keep turning up?

His logic (if such a thing exists in his world) is that he's turning up for work and that there are classes he would be teaching if only he was allowed. He won't be showing up for midterm because the school will be closed. It'd be a good week for his father to get the car serviced if it's anywhere near the time. The mileage on that car must be phenomenal

2 months rent for a teacher in Dublin. Easy enough if you have no overheads.

On the one hand its almost compulsive reading, on the other hand you could argue that these are unfortunate people who have been brainwashed by their parents into anti-social, bigoted, unlikeable personalities. Are they damaged and unfortunate people who need help, or are they competent and aware in spite of their corrupted beliefs?

Parents have a right to raise their children as they see fit, provided they are not physically or mentally abused. At what stage does teaching them extreme religious beliefs become abuse? Many children, especially in recent decades, were reared in a very religious environment but then formed their own - often non-religious - opinions as they got older. So what and how did the Burke parents teach them to such an overwhelming effect? How could they retain the very high levels of academic intelligence that the family evidently has, while keeping the tight hold over the self righteous, sanctimonious, bigoted attitudes? Education tends to increase the ability to think for oneself and form opinions, but Mama Burke has managed to pass on all her extreme opinions along with the education, and apparently to all of them with no exceptions.

It appears that all of the children are adults at this stage, and none has broken ranks. There is remarkably little information about them beyond their interactions with the law and university authorities. None of them appears to be married, there is no information about what the rest of the siblings do for a living or whether they are living at home. Most appear to have had some sort of irrational, bigoted and/or aggressive interaction with authorities. Their anti-gay stance is apparently the basis for most of their issues, but its the associated behaviour that actually gets them into trouble. If their objections were really religious-based there are lots more biblical teachings they could be shouting about, but they only seem to be hung up on their anti-lgbt agenda.

They are technically adults and as such have to be responsible for their own behaviour, and while Enoch is making an eejit of himself at the moment the others are entitled to their privacy. They seem to have no judgement in their own interests - their shouting and ranting has on several occasions defeated their own objectives - they seem to have created a social experiment of themselves that could go on for decades.

Is there a legal reason why he is not in jail? Is he not breaking laws daily now?

Are there any Burke grandchildren?

Are all the 10 children of the same beliefs as their parents or did ant of them rebel?

We have all seen such people escape prison time for committing assaults and other serious crimes. Burke is a nuisance, certainly, but he has not committed any serious crimes yet. You are forgetting he has already spent several months in prison, which has done little to deter him. There is nothing to suggest it would deter him now so the judge has to be very smart in how they deal with him. He presents an unusual problem.

I think that they don't know how to deal with him. Jail gives him oxygen all over the world and gets him the attention he craves and also it hasn't worked before.

As long as he fails to purge his contempt, the fines should be allowed to rack up and even increased if possibe.

Then, legal action could be taken to garnish any future earnings he may have, direct from the bank?

Removed from court again today.
