by Petrie Wed Jun 23, 2004 12:26

So will be allowed into Shannon or not? I get the impression that we will be.

This shit is just unbelieveable - since when do the pigs post on Indymedia?

We don't need the 'advice' or 'helpful facilitation' of these wooden-headed cops to forcefully insert a hob-nailed boot up the Bush-Monkey's arsehole, and Ahern's while we're at it.

If the Garda Siochana had any wit they would not be seen dead protecting War Criminals, Torturers and Rapists from the rigorous application of the law - this lunatic Bush should be arrested - and if the Gardai won't do it at least they should not get in the way of those who will.

Shame on you, An Garda Siochana, hand-maiden of the CIA and the forces of repression worldwide.

Who exactly is the "First Lady"? Is there a "Second Lady", "Third Lady", etc ?

Are they concubines?

If the ordinary residents of Shannon and surrounds cant even get around ,or up to the airport when the prez is in Clare for 18 hours.How in the Hell do you lot expect to get anywhere near Shannon airport or Dromoland??
You will get as far a proably Bunratty ,Newmarket on fergus,or the Lidil carpark[if you are VERY lucky].BUT THATS IT!!!
No sane police or security operation is going to allow a few hundred of the great unwashed anti American rabble anywhere remotly NEAR their cheif hate figure.
Of course a few of you cretins will try to break through.Good! I really hope you get the May1st treatment if you are so stupid to try.

Wouldnt try Dromoland either there are at least THREE US sniper teams on the loose in the estate.They WILL SHOOT YOU if you are in their sights and unauthorised to be there.Piss and moan all you want they are even liscensed by our own Gardai to carry firearms AND have diplomatic immunity,as do all secret service personel.If of course you belived the "sheeple fodder" that they will be prosecuted if they shoot somone.Well more fools ye.

Got to admire peoples naiveity or optimsim or stupidity who post here on what they are up against.

Anyway.Do have fun and please provide us with some entertaning TV news footage.The RTE summer programmes are as per usual shite,and the 90% of the sane rest of us are bored.Please the Mayday "riot" was very underwhelming.Make an effort at a riot your cheif enemy is coming and you wont get much of a chance again.So make it count.

Don't be under any illusions about that. Furthermore, there is no chance whatsoever that the Irish government would take any action against them.

You have been warned.

our special gossamar latex depleted crayon silicone lightweight goretex life size synthetic inflatable and completely waterproof protester decoy dummies (which were developed at a cost of 580,000,000,000,000,000,000,000€) will be first to take the bullets / water canon.
So-
if you notice a protester near you, suddenly deflate and with a resounding farting noise go into rocket launch, you'll know it was one of our decoy protesters.

We are of course maintaining an incident room in downtown Barcelona for the necessary short wave radio control equipment with which we shall be stationing these special gossamar latex depleted crayon silicone lightweight goretex life size synthetic inflatable completely waterproof protester decoy dummies, known as "GR2-units" but unfortuantely at the moment, having spent 580,000,000,000,000,000,000,000€ in their development, we don't have the 7.99€ left over for the batteries.

If anyone has a some lithium based batteries, they'd like to donate, give us a call.
or lift the toupee hair wig flap on the back of the GR2 unit's head and put the batteries in-

Good Luck
God Bless Bush.

call off the protests, we're all going to be shot dead. Viva democracy.

by Eliz Wed Jun 23, 2004 15:35

Dont listen to the scaremongers - they said the same things before the Bush protests here in London last year. Some people were genuinely frightened by their talk of terrorist threats, CIA snipers etc but in the end it was a great protest - don't let them keep you away!
