Significant people's (not celebrities) deaths

@Tim_Riggins

Ah yes, let’s just take the tin foil hat view of them.

He was a shill for big business sure. Let’s ignore his role as EC competition Commissioner. Wouldn’t fit a couple of line Tweet about the man.

he wanted oirishmen to die fighting for the EU

I could never watch after they change Pippa. No one noticed. Everyone carried on as normal. It was a different fucking person!

[Tim_Riggins]

Stating that Ireland’s neutral position is untenable and that Ireland should contribute to the security of the EU does not make someone a monster. At least he was honest - debate his viewpoint, don’t just demonise it lazily.

As an aside, I met suds son a few months ago
A thoroughly alright sort.

@Tim_Riggins

He did a job as a barrister, nothing more, nothing less.

What about his roll as AG when looking at the case?

@Tim_Riggins

BP and Goldman Sachs - this is just leftist twaddle.

Typical cop out.

@Tim_Riggins

he was “greedy”. As pointed out, he took an early career path away from the wealth of the Four Courts. You are simply jealous that the man made money in his lifetime.

I have no jealousy towards anyone that makes an honest living, once they pay their fair share in taxes. The likes of Sutherland, O’Brien and Bono should refrain from advising us how our taxes should be spent. It stinks of hypocrisy. Some lickspittles only love to doff their cap at their perceived betters, a common blueshirt trait.

@Tim_Riggins

you’ve assumed his motives

To believe that Sutherland was a humanitarian is laughable but you believe it if you want.

@Tim_Riggins

you’ve thrown in terms like BP and Goldman Sachs once again to try and give a negative connotation

Is there a positive connotation to these blood sucking leeches?

@Tim_Riggins

you’ve given out about him petition Ireland to take more refugees, when in the past you’ve claimed to be a lovely empathetic person for the poor

Incorrect, as explained already and which you’ve mentioned above, I’m questioning his motives. To believe Sutherland had refugees interests at heart is naive. This was all about bringing in cheap labour, maximising profits for the wealthy.

The apple didn’t fall from the tree.

[Little_Lord_Fauntleroy]

would you make fun at him too if he looked gravely ill?

[Piles_Hussain]

@Tim_Riggins

debate his viewpoint, don’t just demonise it lazily

Where exactly do you think you are, pal?

[Special_Olympiakos]

Imagine seeing someone you consider a personal hero, realizing he looks ill… then your first thought being I’ll score some cheap points on an internet message board with a load of strangers over this.
I really can’t fathom the mentality of some people.
