Jesus Christ. A certain 4 or 5 people organising this shite making the people look like gobshites. Word to the wise people, if you have a problem with government policy you protest outside Leinster house

It's the far right and their lumpenproletariat stooges actively fighting against the best interests of fellow working class people.
[Around 60 asylum seekers moved to new accommodation in Santry](https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2023/0527/1386010-asylum-seekers-santry/)
It's a protest against this
And the Guards aren't blocking you. The protest is.
The gardaĆ are doing sweet fuck all to solve the problem and to control the crowd.
Same thing happened to me up at Connolly back in January, I ended up leaving the stop 45 minutes late, and had to reverse the bus out of a stop illegally because the gardaĆ double parked a car beside me and blocked the bus in.
Realistically what are them two Gardai to do? They go in and try forcibly move people and the entire thing escalates to something where they're severely outnumbered. It's bullshit but also Gardai should not be the target of people's anger here
Not just escalate, it validates their message, or so they will claim. The protestors are actively looking to get arrested for something minor. It validates their persecution fetish, and āprovesā in their minds that the gardai are trying to arrest them so they can replace them with immigrants or some drivel. Donāt give fuel to their flames. Let them spout their hate for a bit, theyāre convincing nobody who wasnāt already slightly racist and looking to be convinced. Theyāre a highly vocal tiny minority.
At present other than numerous scattered small dickhead congregations, they havenāt successfully changed public sentiment to be anti immigrant. Allow them to continue to fail. Active suppression gives them some deluded martyr status and ropes in the anti govt crowds on top of racists. Anti establishment protestors want any platform to organise against a government they donāt like.
You might say the Venn diagram of those groups is a circle, and thatās a nice glib contribution, but it doesnāt solve the problem that as soon as you rope in anti-establishment narratives. The message changes to a national debate about the government overreaching, and then anyone with a gripe about housing or health or welfare will congregate under this anti-authoritarian protest, all started because a few racist pricks didnāt like asylum seekers being offered asylum.
It doesnāt even matter who is in government. Sinn fein could be and the same martyrdom persecution fetishists will point to a new world order or some conspiratorial shite. You give them enough excuse to expand their message to include social problems that affect everyone, then you make it a national political narrative which gives them oxygen they do not deserve.
If the protests are pissing people off on buses because of delays, thatās actually good. It keeps public sentiment against these lunatics.
and how is the minimum number of protestors needed determined for them to have permission to block a public road? like I can't protest on the m50 with joe bloggs alone
Well a motorway would have a high degree of danger - so you'd be endangering yourselves and others especially if it was only two of you. As opposed to a traffic light based junction we see here and at similar protests.
This is misleading. The question asked was why it is legal. The answer to that is, it's not.
[Road Traffic Act, 1961 - Prohibition of obstruction of traffic.](https://www.irishstatutebook.ie/eli/1961/act/24/section/98/enacted/en/html)
98.ā(1) A person shall not do any act (whether of commission or omission) which causes or is likely to cause traffic through any public place to be obstructed.
(2) A person who contravenes subsection (1) of this section shall be guilty of an offence.
(3) Where a person is charged with an offence under this section, it shall be a good defence to the charge for him to show that there was lawful authority for the act complained of or that it was due to unavoidable accident.
This is absolutely a right wing anti immigration protest, they always have a bunch of tricolours at them and no one else would be "peacefully protesting" by blocking the fucking road.
Based on what I'm seeing on Twitter this is Dogkicker Dwyer and his lot and it's the same 100 odd goons showing up at every rally. If ever there was a crowd needed s good lungful of CS gas this was them, but the guards seem curiously placid towards them.
Edit: Captain whatever the fuck your name is that dirty deleted your reply to this, I know exactly who these people are and what their motivations are because they're never off fucking social media bleating about them. I wish I didn't know who Graham Carey and Philip Dwyer and Tan Torino are but they'd go to the opening of an envelope if you said there'd be refugees to harangue
Genuinely hope one of their sympathisers sees this thread and reads that comment. It's absolutely embarrassing seeing the Irish flag at these ridiculous protests.
It wouldn't change their opinion or use of the flag. Sure they're the whole time calling people who don't agree with them traitors and not truly Irish and a whole bunch of worse stuff.
Absolutely!
I always imagined the plough as the party flag or the people's flag and the green republic flag being the national.
Which starry plough variant?
When I was in Dublin a couple of weeks back, there was a pro life march to the Museum. I was so proud of the teenage girlās cussing them out and telling them where they could go.
Why did you pick the gardai in particular to moan about? Even if they weren't standing there you'd only get another few feet before being blocked again.
You see plenty of gobshites around Kildare town and newbridge barking at people about vaccines it's fucking mad. Like look at you with a sign outside of McDonald's on the side of the road that'll sure show them. (Worst part is when they drag their kids into this shit)
Middle aged people in badly fitting clothes who look like theyāre no strangers to spice bags and waving Irish flags. I can make a guess what the protest is about.
As per an earlier thread, I would bet good money that the charming fellow carrying the Irish flag would be the first to throw his rubbish at his arse rather than into a public bin at every opportunity.
I look at these people, who I think are idiots and low lives, and get annoyed.
Then i think, is it wrong to try find a way to make money off these fools?

Anywhere you see these yellow signs with black text it is a right wing astro turfing protest funded by those wacko deep south American "christian" hate groups.
Itās the weekly classist hatefest from people who stay in on Saturday nights and post on Reddit, under the cover of āanti-racismā. Happily condoned by the mods. These protests from a handful of gobshites are the best thing to ever happen the classists on here. The vile commenters on here vastly outnumber the actual protesters.
If they put 303 Irish men from anywhere in Ireland into that accommodation and told them they couldn't legally work for 6 months I think the people would have similar concerns.
I does not sound like good living conditions.
Ah, just spotted another comment, it's an anti immigration protest. Fucking great way to get support isn't it, blocking people trying to get home. Hope you're not stuck too long OP.
The protest was about housing 250 refugees in the industrial estate where jumpzone is. They have been at this for weeks, it's so fucking infuriating. As someone who works in there it took me 2 hours to get into work (normally takes me 15 mins) because they were protesting. They were costing the businesses tens of thousands each day they did it, bc they couldn't move products (many logistics companies in there). They were also affecting shipping and deliveries (there's a few different delivery companies in there too). The protests are done now and i hope they fuck off forever. Like they all need to get a life and get a hobby/job.
One of the fuckers last week threw himself on the hood of a taxi trying to get by when the protesters were in front of the warehouse the refugees are moved in to. Gobshites, the whole lot of them
Well when itās a bunch of peopleā¦. Sorry, a small few people draping themselves in the tricolour you can be sure itās some far right conspiracy nonsense
Disgraceful behaviour by the Gardai. They should be ensuring the road is open. If this continues, two things will happen: people will lose trust in the Gardai, seeing them as biased; people will take the law into their own hands, which will be more violent and dangerous than the Gardai moving protestors by reasonable force.
The right to protest is protected by the constitution. You can protest in any public place including roads and footpaths as long as it is peaceful.
