The GGA attempted to radically change society. Association football was of the most popular games, if not the most popular, in the country and the GGA continually attempted to destroy it. Rugby football, a less popular sport, got the same. Ditto all âEnglishâ sports played widely by the population. The Galliban though, much like Unionism, used intimidation and the wheels of Government to pursue their agenda.
The GGA has never represented Ireland.
And except as you mention, you wonât exactly give the Catholic Church a pass do you?
And so what? Protestants have been and always should be apart of society. That is nothing to do with what I am saying about Toxic Republicanism, which the GGA still widely engages in.
The reaction to this by the Galliban and others on here said it all.
You are comparing a past version of the GAA with the current version of the Orange Order. Why are you doing that mate? Is it because your already pretty flimsy argument would completely fall apart otherwise?
Your reaction was telling, you decided to jump head first into an issue you knew fuck all about based on a headline on a dreadfully written article which played to your own bigoted confirmation biases.
I canât remember the last time thousands of GAA members went out burning Union Jacks, DUP posters, kill all hun banners etc then got shitfaced and attacked Protestant estates and the forces of law and order.
Never mind nationalist politicians, the absolute state of political unionism is embarrassing. Their silence is pathetic.
Homes being boarded up, people being evacuated, fire brigades spraying foam on the dwellings in advance of these bonfires, threats being daubed on walls and these fucks taking over public property and forcing the closure of businesses.
All against the backdrop of complete silence from their political leaders.
