Northern Ireland #2 Craic, conflict and current affairs

Yes the whole culture is wrong, remember the case where the young girl was using a sub machine gun at a shooting range and accidentally shot the instructor? I think she was about 12. Then you have the police shooting people dead as a daily occurrence as well. And those bloody video games, my son has call of duty and I definitely notice a change in his mood when he’s been on it too much. I can’t imagine sending my children to school and not knowing if they’ll be safe or not.

I'm just after saying the exact same thing to my sons about those bloody video games ,and how they make killing look fun .
Yes you think they're in a safe environment when they're at school , even Biden has come out and said enough is enough the law needs to change .

A child is shot every hour in America according to the statistics and 5 children die from gunshots every day. Unbelievable

[monga]

Maybe an American buyer they're big on the Irish troubles .

 

[pommynoir]

Jeez that’s mad money isn’t it. For a bit of paper . Not really for Mairéad Farrell (jr) to be commenting on sure she didn’t buy the poster.

Incredibly unfortunate at least it wasn’t a real broad Belfast accent could you imagine “yous like your McDonald’s’s don’t ye”

That video will never get old “ yis like yer Mac Donaldsis don’t yis” bloody hilarious

 

[Emmelina Ball]

So lovely and such a nice example to set instead of the usual nonsense in this country

They were saying it was lack of exposure to common viruses smoking young kids during lockdown was a factor but I’m not up to date with it tbh. Very worrying.

Never expected to see a picture of those two together tbh

McBride seems concerned
Monkeypox and hepatitis in children could be linked to low post-pandemic immunity

Yeah I saw that a few day’s ago I’m sure Mary L will be glad to know she’s got at least one fan

 

[Wee Nora]

God the thoughts of more lockdowns and isolation the smallpox vaccine apparently works against monkeypox so I guess that’ll be the next jab we’ll be pressured into getting

I hope not it’s not recommended for all because of severe side effects.

How sad ...Did you see one of the kids grandmas on pleading for change ,she'll never hold her baby again ...heartbreaking
Controversial , but I think because they weren't white it won't have the same impact on the American public

Their 4 children are orphaned now, horrific yes I saw that lady earlier, how can there be any question that action is needed? It’s madness, little kids are taught how to hide under their desks in case of a shooting, putting the responsibility on their shoulders to protect themselves in a place where they should be totally safe. How completely messed up?
