Gript-A source of misinformation. **Read OP before posting**

You used the term ''bad actors''. No need for the haughty condescension.

Very interesting article on Gript there regarding finger print checks. I have heard numerous ministers, NGOs, TDs in the last few weeks tell us these checks were in place for the last few years well it looks like that's bullshit. Interesting to see what happens here. How come the independent, times etc aren't able to report this ?

Presumably because it doesn't line up with their progressive, globalist agenda. An example of why it is good to have adversarial media and a diversity of biases.

I noticed that there is a so-called spam block of 150 seconds in effect now on my account. The mods on here evidently have a twitchy finger in keeping the ''peasant'' posters under their pro-establishment thumb.

Ahh no wonder the progressive, those of superior intellect, the modern so called left, ngos, government and political party lackies don't like Gript.

Any of you geniuses care to comment about their article highlighting the information the Dept of Justice forwarded to deputies Carol Nolan and Michael McNamara that fingerprints of asylum seekers, international protection chancers, are not checked against criminal databases?

They are checked against Eurodac which is a non criminal EU database that stores the fingerprints of international protection applications who have crossed a border illegally.

Oh and the other database is Schengen Information System (SIS) which is also not a criminal database.

SIS only contains information about false documents or identification which has been captured by an EU member state or the Schengen associated countries (Switzerland, Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland).

The most if may contain is alert on outstanding arrest warranties nothing on criminal history.

So the information published by the supposed false information site Gript, goes directly against the supposed true information published by the supposed true purveyor and guardian of true information (a site that validates the veracity of information on behalf of others) The Journal when it published information provided in interview with minister O'gormless in December last when he stated that

"When an International Protection applicant arrives in the country, they’re fingerprinted. Their fingerprints go through two databases. One to see if they’ve been involved with the immigration authorities in any other EU member state and the other to see if they’ve been involved in criminality in any other member state”.

And the Dept of Justice further clarified that the AGS does not input fingerprints on the Europol Information System (EIS).

Argument destroyed. It's nothing but discrimination to even think that we should be checking criminal databases for our new arrivals. It's nothing but racism to think that there may be some dangerous people entering our nation. Concerns about "citizen safety" are nothing but a guise for far right hate. A murderer has just as much of a right to be here as anyone else, and those who can't see that, are those who live on nothing but hate.

It's not one bit dramatic to call this tyrannical, regardless of the weak justifications that will come from the usual types, the types who love to deny their authoritarian nature.

Our state broadcaster has been sued several times for false accusations, yet never has such a question posed? I wonder why?

Ramp up the outrage meter there, why don't you?

And in classic form, no response is complete without a thinly veiled threat of violence. Grift would be proud.

Not a sign of intelligence either

Guess who caused one of those legal actions to be instigated? That's right, Mr Gript himself

How are the government 'trying to cancel them' please? What does 'trying to cancel' look like?
