You think everyone isn’t tribal? Really?
I think they’ve learned their lesson, the hard way.
And what do you make of the calls for their expulsion?
Do you think they should be expelled?
I think its trial by social media and its disgusting.
But they cant be shocked at it either given whats going on around the world right now. MIC will do well to slip the noose here.
Hard to disagree with any of that.
Rentamob justice is rentamob justice all the same.
Thats the way its gone now, and youngsters need to realise it. The old days are gone.

You just said everyone is racist to an extent. That’s a different thing. I disagree.
You also seem to be saying they shouldn’t be criticised on social media, they threw it up an social media so they made it public and invited response.
You said calling it racist may not be justified. Can you explain how? I think that’s utterly ridiculous. It’s clearly racist.
Why are you soft on blatant racism?

What was he saying?
what did he write?
Are you tribal in any way glas?
N-gger is a worse word than knacker but you’re half right. These were kids who got drunk and did something stupid and then said sorry. They need some sort of punishment but there’s no point in being stupid.
In ireland we’re lucky enough to live in a forgiving culture where people get second chances. We have to be careful of the creeping influence of the harsher American culture where lives are readily discarded. That’s part of the problem of what makes discourse so viscious over there, is everyone is terrified. For what it’s worse, the first mention of expulsion I saw on here came from Flatty, living in an Anglo-Saxon country the past few years.
As regards Flatty’s “everyone is racist and tribal” comment, he expressed it poorly but he was half right as well. You have to forgive yourself and you have to forgive others because everyone is going to fuck up badly sometimes. If you read the child’s apology, he’s obviously fairly distraught.

You liked this post I quoted above.
First off, assuming this nutter has gone past puberty and actually has a child.
What was the worst the child could have said? “Yes daddy I love chink food” or perhaps “yes daddy let’s get ching chong food”, I can’t think of any other way a child may say that they would like to get chinese food with a perceived slight that the woke brigade would zero in on.
The liar above who has no children decided to pen that little ditty just to appear to be in with the woke crowd. No bother starving your imaginary child, you gotto to be woke. You liked that post above @mick_jones. What do you like about it?
I suppose it’s a mater of perspective to say which word is worse, to a traveller I’d say the knacker word is worse, it’s not acceptable to use anymore in our society but it’s used liberally here, someone will use it now just because they can, the N word is used in a similar way in the US, not do much here
You’ve taken a very soft line on what was clearly a very racist publication and you’ve avoided follow up questions. Why?
Luimneach abú.
I use the word knacker to refer to all scumbags
Would you accept that you’ve shown some prejudice yourself in recent days?

I’ve asked you a simple question which you continue to avoid as it opens up an uncomfortable home truth.

People should face consequences but consequences should be proportionate.
Lads who want to write off a lads life for a drunken social media comment that they apologize for are insisting on a very high bar that if applied consistently would mean that they should logically support prison sentences for all criminal acts. No second chances.
Anybody using social media from now on needs their head examined.
