The Crime Thread

Was gonna post this in the immigration thread but considering what was said crime is probably a better fit. Could you imagine a far right head said these words. Will the mad lefties go to town on this guy?

Will the Irish authorities do the same? How long do you reckon he'd be able to walk around streets in Portadown, Larne, Bangor and Ballymena saying sh*te like that before someone would kick his teeth out?

What was going through your head sharing that image?

He's had his fun and that's all that matters.

Tell us eireland, what mad leftie has been harassing the great pepper and his ilk lately?

Didn't YBIG or at least member's of it suggest he should be run out of the stadium and worse when he attended with his kids? Like I said violence okay when it suits.  Anyway nvidic can I post the picture from the Irish times? Same image different angle.

YBIG said he wasn't welcome in the Singing section. A comment and opinion I would say the majority of followers on this forum would agree with. (open to correction if anyone disagrees)

To expand on the opinion above, given the background of several senior and underage players, I personally thought it was quite refreshing to see that posted. It was asked of him amongst those replies whether he supported the likes of Idah, Omobamidele etc. - it didn't surprise me that there was no reply to those questions.

Back on point however, that tweet wasn't harassment. If this forum or anyone else took it upon themselves to stop him from attending, then you can call it that for sure. However, one tweet? I know you read the comments under elected official accounts on that platform. Would you see much difference? Other than the excessive volume of said tweets on a daily basis?

Let's call a spade a spade here, if that is a threat then the stuff being directed at Paul Murphy and Roderic O'Gorman etc. is an all out declaration of war in comparison. Then again, we've seen those tweets too saying Ireland is going to fight back. You got one "mad leftie" to suggest likewise. Good ratio wouldn't you think?

Anyway, tell me this. Is there anyone standing outside the homes of the far right candidates with bedsheets and flegs? Have there been reports of direct threats being made to any of these fearless individuals based on their policies?

I saw plenty of his devotees call the above tweet a threat, which is quite funny considering the macho aggressive behaviour we have seen in some protests. Do you think oul pepperino was losing sleep at the thought of not being made welcome? If you know him be sure to ask. Maybe he can answer the question about Irish internationals with a mixed background heritage and if he supports them too.

I believe that's a member of YBIG encouraging violence and YBIG twitter liked his posts which condones it. YBIG account made a tweet themselves which they've now wisely deleted. Like I said far left far right doesn't matter the end result is nastiness and violence. You're all completely unhinged from reality.

You're all completely unhinged from reality. AFAIK YBIG doesn't own the Aviva or decide who attends. You'd think after dealing with JD's authoritarian regime for years YBIG would have a bit more cop on. You consistently, and rightly, say protesters and far right agitators should not be conflated yet here you are representing one comment with YBIG. YBIG said that Pepper is not welcome in the SS and rightly so. He is a divisive little racist. Of course we can't stop him from being there but can certainly tell him what we think of him.
