Dresden Curtis Esq: Did you check out the 800 detention camps USA story, I double-checked it and it's true. One day these camps might be neede. Re: Awoken32 posts, when he writes you can sense communism, socialism and time served in prison. With regard to commies I was in Russia in 1975, shopping queues started at 6.00am mostly outside butchers shops, the shops did not open until 10.00am, and if they had no meat the manager was not allowed to go outside and tell the waiting people as it reflected badly on the State. When I saw this it was in winter and the women waiting were often elderly 60-70 years of age citizens. This was a real insight into a totalitarian state, we viewed the Lubianka Prison from across the street. Read up on it sometime and the JIM Crow Laws USA.

RF, only a moral imbecile believes that moral and political virtue are always congruous.

@RobinForester "your ignorance is not because the truth is not available to you.There have been "radicals"preaching it for thousands of years.No.You are ignorant because you shun the truth with all your heart an soul.You close your eyes an run away when a hint of reality lands in front of you.You condemn as "extremists"and"fringe kooks"those that try to show you the chains you are wearing.You dont want to be free.Responsibility an reality scare the hell out of you so you cling tightly to your own enslavement and lash out at any who seek to free you from it.When someone opens the door to your cage,you cower back in the corner an yell,"CLOSE IT".You are trapped in your own iron web

awoken: If you lived next door to me you'd say 'My, What Good Neighbours We Have', you'd ring me to ask will I pick you up outside the club because you were singing "Dublin Belongs to Me', Mood", and the bus conductor wouldn't let you on the bus because he said you-'were kay-'ly'. and surely that's all we want to do get on the bus with eveyone else. If you read todays Irish Central front page there's news about 5 or more Irish/USA Billionaires, what I forgot to mention when I was rabbiting on about not killing the Mayor or the President. I should have added 'we also have the RIGHT to be millionaires and billionaires and we all know men who made the effort to better themselves and did so. You never hear those men moan and groan about the Government do you, So it's down to the individual and not the State.

Your govermnent must love you RobinForester,Honestly you are the most obediant slave for your masters,you hear no evil speal no evil an see no evil,your actions are restricted by your blind faith you put in the very same corrupted to the core system that puts you down time an time again,myself my eyes are fully open to the system an im willing to put a bars through the cogs of its machine,the answer to curtisjohns question was easy,The government couldnt care less about you,the government wants you trapped in servitude,the most dangerous thingon the planet in the last century is government,Government have killed more people in the last 100years than in anytime in hstory,politicans destroy democracy,the education system destroys education,solicitors destroy the law,the healthcare systems destroys your health,religon destroys your spirituality eyc etc etc etc,the whole world is upside down on purpose,you are a slave neo

Eviction row puts spotlight on reality of repossessions Brendan and Asta Kelly, 71 and 63, were forcibly evicted from the Dublin property on Wednesday in unsavoury circumstances. They are — or were — successful business people, who took out a mortgage worth about €2m with Anglo Irish Bank to buy the property. While the details of the Kelly case are divisive, they were nevertheless man-handled out of their home. This story has highlighted an issue that is happening quietly across Ireland daily. Latest figures from the Central Bank for the last quarter of 2011 show repossessions were happening at least once a day. During those 90 days, 133 properties were taken into possession by lenders, 50 were repossessed on foot of court orders and the balance were voluntarily surrendered or abandoned. So most went quietly, but the outcome was the same. In March, a disturbing video was posted on YouTube showing the forced eviction of a woman from a house in Arklow. The woman, who was living in the house with her two children, was in rent arrears of €2,500. Two squad cars and four gardaí were present while she was lifted out of the house and taken away in handcuffs for breach of the peace.

Reference: The Potato Famine, Rent arrears and Evictions, here's a news snippet to chew over, the point I'm making is is South Dublin Council being unfair are acting like the English? A Dublin family has secured a temporary High Court injunction preventing South Dublin County Council from evicting them from their home of almost 30 years. David and Catherine McGowan, who live with their three adult children and two grandchildren at Cushlawn Park, Tallaght, fear they are in danger of imminent eviction due to a dispute over rent arrears, the court heard. The house is subject to a tenancy agreement between the council and the McGowans since they moved in 28 years ago. The council claims there are rent arrears of €23,740. It secured a warrant for possession earlier this year. Senior counsel Conleth Bradley , for the family, said they disputed the council’s assessment of arrears and contended that it erroneously computed the family’s income for rent assessment purposes.

Curtis: Lets not kid oursleves Governments have 3 legs and hidden agendas and political motives to remain in power and Tammany Halls exist everywhere. In short what I think or want does not matter a great deal. The political legacy we obtain is often reflected in the laws that are passed, laws which regulate our behavior hopefully for the best, Common sense says even if I disagree with the law I have no right whatsoever to seek change through violent or unreasonable methods. I am not allowed to murder the King, the President or the Mayor, or the right to sway public opinion to my cause by disrupting society or causing injury to others, who, in practice. are invariably innocent bystanders. My individual rights of action are limited, therefore it's open to me to become an MP, Senator, Congressman or local councillor, if I am unwilling to do so then the blame is mine alone - not my neighbour or the State who maybe totally unaware I feel so strongly about an issue, I must accept that they have the right to ignore me, to walk away and to mount a counter-protest, or to adopt a couldn't care less attitude to me and the society we live in.

RF, do you believe the people that really run your country are you friends or enemies?

@IrelandNorth im from Dublin man lol

Ireland North: The question is are you my friend or enemy? And are you Irelands real friend, with your outdated hates thats not possible, think how you sound to others, would you as a tourist want to visit Ireland north or south with gadgies like you on the go. Preaching hatred as if it's a manly virtue. Today 3 loonies were arrested taking rockets into Londonderry to explode. Lets say they were not arrested, that they exploded these weapons and lets say 9 Irish people got killed and several injured. What good did that do, what valid point was made -hatred does not create jobs or prosperity, Belfast the last I heard was a ghost town, when did it last launch a ship or erect a new £200 million development. Empty towns, kids leaving to go to England, poor prospects and ypu-re to blame. Time to say no more, We want homes, jobs, wages and food on the table.

awoken32! Go easy on us poor auld 'Free Staters'. A dodgy treaty was imposed upon you in the 6 as much as it was on us in the 26. James Joyce had it right: "History is a nightmare from which I am trying to awaken!" Unity of the 32 is a macroeconomic imperative. The wealth we hold in common depends upon it! [Sherwood]Forrester! It's conventional to grant people their noms-de-postes. Give 'em a break! STEVENSTAR! An Irishman from the 26 would never use the term "southern Irish". Nor be pejorative towards fellow northerners, or westerners - ie Americans. Sowing the seeds of enmity and division is the devils work, (and conduct unbecoming an Orangeman from west Tyrone). PS HM EIIR visited the 26 in 2011, and the 6 in 2012. Gotcha!

STEVEN: SO how exactly is it the Irish-Americans fault, as you say they come on a tour bus, and the locals employed in the tourist business present them a picture of Ireland. If you have something better or more authentic to present, than the Irish people should present it to tourists, American and otherwise. Now what would you present? Man U Jersey's, Jedward?

@RobinForester i never though we aggree on something,but you are right mass immigration cause division an havoc for the NATIVES of a country,The government an left wing lunatics pander to their every wish whilst abandoning their OWN people,another thing you didnt mention is.is that it creates slave labour wages,There is not one songle enrichment that it brings for the native population
