Crowd chanting anti-immigrant slogans clashes with police hours after stabbing incident outside school

Thu 23 Nov 2023 15.31 EST
Buses and trams have been torched and a shop looted during riots in Dublin city centre after a stabbing attack outside a school left three children injured.
Police and politicians called for calm amid warnings against misinformation as violence escalated from a demonstration that began on Thursday afternoon at the scene of the incident.
There were clashes with riot police as some demonstrators let off flares and fireworks, while others grabbed chairs and stools from outside bars and restaurants.
A police cordon was set up around the Irish parliament building, Leinster House, and officers from the Garda Mounted Support Unit were in nearby Grafton Street.
More than 400 Irish police officers were involved in the height of the response. In a video statement on social media, Ch Supt Patrick McMenamin said some members of the police force had been attacked and assaulted.
However, he said no serious injuries had been reported by gardaí or members of the public. Gardaí remained on patrol in the city centre, he said, adding: “Dublin city centre is now calm and returning to normal.”
The Irish justice minister, Helen McEntee, labelled the scenes “intolerable” and said a “thuggish and manipulative element must not be allowed to use an appalling tragedy to wreak havoc”.
The garda commissioner, Drew Harris, said a “complete lunatic faction driven by far-right ideology” was behind the disorder.

You’re now "far right" if you’re angry that an Algerian migrant stabbed 3 Irish kids (including a 5 yr old girl). At this point if you aren’t a communist that agrees to let invaders steal, rape and kill in your country then you’re far right to these monstrous propagandists.

Ireland is a nation of latent lunatic hooligans. The Irish are crazy and know how to hold a grudge. 800 years of Anglo-Norman occupation and repression have imprinted a "don't take $h!t" attitude upon the national populace. Hence, Irish fisherman were willing to take on the Russian navy, and prevailed.
The Irish did not fight a 800 year war of indendence just to let some "left-wing fruit loops" in Brussels to impose upon them a social experiment to destroy all national identities within the E.U. The Globalists in Brussels are attempting to deconstruct national idenities in Europe so they can create a single "European" indentity.
Nationalism is the antithesis of the E.U.'s vision of a single European identity. The E.U. is an attempt by former Carolingian Empire rump states, France and Germany, to re-instantiate Charlemagne's dream of a united Europe. Nationalism is an impedement to creating a "European national identity" just as native languages are impediments to making Esperanto a common language. Anyone who attempts to assert or express nationalist feelings within the E.U.will automatically be labeled "right-wing extremists".
Globalists are in for a rude awakening. The peoples of the world do not want the Globalist World Order of Trans-national Kleptocratic Oligarchs in Brussels, Geneva, Zurich, Davos, etc.

Those bozos have NO freaking idea about the nightmare they are getting themselves into.
What they REALLY need to do is to go ahead and piss off/attack the Highland Scots while they are at it. They make the Irish seem like a reasonable people.
Anybody doubts this needs to do a web search for "Hadrian's " and see how that came about.
When they hear the bagpipes wailing,it's too late to do anything but run for their lives. The big problem they are going to have with that is they will have nowhere to run but into the arms of the Irish.

Rather than clamp down on migrant crime and ensure the safety of Irish children, the government is going to clamp down on the "far-right" with hate speech laws and prevent people from being able to speak their minds about the country's myriad problems. Make it make sense.

There is no secret why they do this. Public dissent makes the leaders look like incompetent fools that no sane person would vote for,so they stomp down on public dissent and talk about how well they are running the country because they "brought peace to the table".

Well,there is and always has been SOME "crossover" between the Highland Scots and the Irish,but GENERALLY speaking,the Scots are both larger and love to fight even more than the Irish. THAT is really saying something.
The Italians invaded Ireland in order to conquer it and make it a vassal state,and ended up building "Hadrian's Wall " and manning it with Roman soldiers in order to protect themselves from the Scots,who at that time,liked to paint their bodies blue and go into battle naked.
Even in WW-2,the Scots marching into battle while playing the bagpipes seemed to scare the Biden out of the Nazi's.
And.....,after all these years of peace,you just KNOW it wouldn't take much to get the Scots fired up again.

I bet it was "the Irish" themselves. So the real question is whether guys like McGregor are just a relatively small but very vocal minority, or whether they represent the majority of the Irish.
Although if they represent the majority of the Irish, how did it ever get to this point in the first place?

Politicians Urge Censorship Of The Disasters They Create
Unpopular elected leaders from Ireland and France to California and Canada invent fresh justifications for speech crackdown while funding news media to promote their point of view
Michael Shellenberger
Nov 26, 2023
Ireland must pass new legislation to crack down on the online hatred behind the rioting in Dublin on Thursday, said its Prime Minister Leo Varadkar, on Friday. “It’s not just the platforms that have a responsibility here, and they do,” he said. “It’s also the individuals who post messages and images online that stir up hatred and violence. We need to be able to use laws to go after them individually as well.”
But what triggered the riots were accurate news media reports that the suspect in the stabbing of multiple individuals, including a five-year-old child, was an Algerian immigrant. Either Varadkar is spreading misinformation by attributing the riots to “messages and images,” or he wants to criminalize sharing accurate news stories.
There’s no excuse for the looting and rioting that occurred in Dublin, and the suspect in the stabbing attack had been in Ireland for 20 years, according to news reports, and another immigrant, a Brazilian, physically intervened to stop the attacker. The Dublin riots appeared to have been the work of the same kind of nihilistic young men that engaged in rioting during Black Lives Matter protests in 2020 and in France this summer.
At the same time, many in Ireland felt they have seen a pattern. “A few days before [the stabbing],” writes Angela Nagle at Compact, “a Slovak Romani immigrant was sentenced for the murder of a young woman, Ashling Murphy. She had been walking home from work by a canal when she was stabbed eleven times in the neck. It was reported that the assailant had been living on disability benefits in a publicly funded council home. Last year, an Iraqi immigrant murdered two Irish gay men, decapitating one of them. In a nation with close-knit, high-trust communities until recently, this new reality is shocking and alien to Irish people. Dublin used to be renowned for its warmth, fun, and friendliness. Now everyone talks about how the atmosphere has taken a dark turn.” ...

@Maj. Bill Martin
I SUSPECT it "got to this place in Ireland" the same way it "got to this place in the US.
All the migrant parasites that came here and there to "live the good life without working" immigrated to the big cities,and the politicians were more than happy to give them anything they wanted,in exchange for their votes.
Since it SEEMS like the majority of the votes in both Ireland and in the US come from the big cities where welfare is an industry,I honestly don't know what we OR the Irish can do about this,short of revolution.
Yeah,those of us that don't live in the big cities have more firepower than most of the big cities,and EVERYBODY LOVES to talk a lot of trash about "Revolution",but I just do NOT see this happening in the US unless the big cities encourage their denizens to pick up arms and "take back the countryside" to make more room for gooberment housing".
Yeah,I have pulled a trigger a few times myself,but I just do NOT see even me "pulling a trigger" anymore until and unless someone starts shooting at me. Which will,of course be too late because IF that happens it will happen because the feral government in conjunction with the big cities and local police departments outnumber those of us who grew up in rural areas and are used to shooting and hunting.
Yeah,the "burbs" and surrounding rural areas close to big cities are populated with SOME people who also have guns,but they will be so outnumbered and out-organized by the government that chances are they won't fight and will just turn their guns in if ordered to do so.
Sure,there will be SOME individuals that still remember and value individual freedoms,but we are so outnumbered it is a sick joke to think that we can pick up our rifles and take the country back.
The ONLY way to "take the country back" is through the ballot boxes and elections, and the Dims and RINO's for all practical purposes OWN those votes as much as they own the ballot boxes.
And the ballot boxes are for all intents and purposes useless because so many conservatives have a "Ifn ah kaint git the PERFUCT candadte,ah won't vote!" state of mind.
In other words,conservatives are almost certainly screwed,and while left organized the plan to destroy America as a nation of free people and got it moving,we seem to do more to aid them than to hinder them by not voting for any candidate we don't personally consider to be "perfect in every respect,or at least in every respect that *I* care about".
As that famous philosopher "Pogo" once stated,"We haz met the enemy,and he is us!"

Conor McGregor Keeps Throwing Punches at the Irish Government Despite 'Hate Speech Investigation'
By Brandon Morse | 11:38 AM on November 29, 2023 The Irish government should have known better than to pick a fight with a guy who made fighting his profession and is one of the best of all time at it.
MMA champ Conor McGregor has been making some serious waves in Ireland and around the globe for standing up against the Irish government for its lackadaisical approach toward the crime wave brought on by unchecked immigration. The problem has gotten so bad that it's triggered riots within the country after an Algerian migrant stabbed three children, an issue that was immediately blamed on "far right" groups by the Irish government.
Advertisement
McGregor denounced the riots but made it clear that the riots weren't a result of far-right groups creating unrest, it was a reaction to the Irish people being subjected to a complete cultural and societal submission to a wave of illegal migrants who have no care or respect for the country they've supposedly sought refuge in. ...

An Algerian immigrant has been formally charged over the mass stabbing attack on children in Dublin that sparked a night of rioting. Riad Bouchaker, described as "Irish" in the press, spoke only to the court-appointed Arabic interpreter.
BREAKING: Suspect charged with attempted murder after Dublin stabbing of 3 children
by: Jessica Barshis
12/21/2023
The Algerian immigrant who allegedly horrifically stabbed three children and one woman outside a Dublin school last month in a crazed, random attack has been arrested and charged with attempted murder.
50-year-old Riad Bouchaker, of no fixed abode, appeared before Dublin District Court on Thursday, BBC reports. He spoke only to the Arabic interpreter during the hearing. ...
According to The Times, the suspect was the "subject of a deportation order."
"However, after a judicial review in the High Court his deportation order was revoked. Sources said in 2008 the Department of Justice granted the man leave to stay in Ireland," the Times reported.
