Sure the OIUTF narrative has veered between āthe Irish are sheepā, ie. we were obeying restrictions, and āthe Irish are ungovernableā, ie. we are not obeying restrictions. Thereās never a nuance there.
The reality is only a very small minority of people are taking the piss like those who were dancing in that video. But what they were doing was pure piss taking all the same.
Those who want society to open up as soon as possible are those who should be the most annoyed at them.
Much safer to open up at 70% vaccinated and 50 cases than at 70% vaccinated and 2,000 cases.
Iām quite reasonable. I havenāt commented on the vast majority of people who were at Salthill. Iām commenting on the eejits who were dancing and slabbering all over each other. Hardly a surprise theyāre mainly if not all young men, whose public sense of self tends to rely on an outward show of infallibility and invincibility.
Ah would you fuck off. Itās human nature. Young people do what young people do. Slabbering all over each other ffsā¦ring Joe Duffy on Monday and get it all off your chest.
They are heros of Ireland. Fighting for their right to party. On the 105th anniversary of the rising its fitting. They shall be remembered for the heroic stand taken today.
If telling you to fuck off makes me unreasonable what does your behaviour in the past make you? I donāt think reasonable would be the first thing that would jump to peopleās minds.
They arenāt being demonised for enjoying the sunshine. Itās merely being correctly pointed out that grouping tightly together and singing and slabbering all over other people during a pandemic is gobshite behaviour.
