@mooreholmes24 2500+ parades a year…one parade steeped in death, violence & suffering is protested & its time to play the victim. The world can see see through it. The global support has you seething. Real unionists don’t want this parade to go ahead, they’ve shown nothing but love to us.
@jp_shurlock@LeadersLoyalism I agree, there’s no winners at the end of all this…it could’ve been easily avoided. Peace didn’t need to be disrupted, but brysons fetish fantasy for wanting to live during the troubles got the best of him. Luckily we, the residents are stronger than he thought.
@jp_shurlock@LeadersLoyalism They could’ve said we acknowledge that we won our application, but let us march to the top of garvaghy road, shake hands with the residents, turn back and leave it there forever. Imagine the photos and videos. But nope. They don’t HAVE to walk it, they WANT to walk it. It’s over.
@goat_poaster The relevance is the principle, not the specifics. She challenged an unjust legally enforced practice. The residents protest is likewise, about peacefully challenging something unjust. You don’t need the situations to be identical for the analogy to be relevant.
@AdamPollock Rosa parks was arrested for doing what was right. Slavery was once law, segregated bathrooms was once law, white only seats on buses was once law…historically the law isn’t always right, and you have to challenge when it’s wrong with protest. Connect the dots.
🚨 Open letter from people of Protestant backgrounds concerning the Garvaghy Road
🚨 We feel compelled to speak publicly about what is happening in Portadown.
🚨Over the past few hours we have collected over 140 signatures.

@TommyJohnsgkam@Diarmuid_9@thejournal_ie This was pushed through as an admin error with Bryson foaming at the mouth. Nobody gave a fuck about the residents when applying. It was sprung on us after 28 years with a few days notice, but we’re tangoing now 👍🏻 😂😂 American football is class you bastard
@TommyJohnsgkam@Diarmuid_9@thejournal_ie Only one group of hateful people caused this. The rest of us are doing what’s right. There’s unionists joining us from all over to show support, I have Protestant friends & my mates are married to Protestants. We won’t allow bigotry & supremacy. If you don’t like it, no baw 🫱🏻🫲🏼
@thegnomeofdoom0@shaymurphyie You wanna see the boys on here, I get some craic out of them…you could be next if you want? There’s a fella who stalks me and then blocked me 😂😂 he’s probably in these comments. You all need a hug.
