One of the rioters got 18 months in prison today. No idea what the lad did but it’s hard to pick anyone out of the footage available who deserved to spend over a year in jail.
Man jailed for Love Ulster rioting

A man who admitted to taking part in the riots during the Love Ulster parade in Dublin City over two years ago has been sentenced to 18 months in prison.
Ross Farrelly (aged 23), of St. Johns Gardens, Railway Street, Dublin, pleaded guilty to violent disorder on O’Connell Street on February 25 2006.
Judge Patrick McCartan suspended the last nine months of the sentence on strict conditions.
A few randomers were assaulted as far as I recall so maybe it was for that rather than solely throwing missiles. We’re due another one of these parades too.
The Croppy from on here was involved. He played for my soccer team at the time but didn’t show for the game. Rang us afterwards and said he was in Champion and what size boots did I want - never saw sign of the loot though unfortunately.
