Think I read somewhere that he is mentally ill. Trying extra hard to be "accepted".

It does seem bizarre that someone from a minority ethnic group should adopt a club with the most intolerant fan base on the planet

I think it was the Scotland- England game, where he got hit that someone mentioned it. He is definitely a confused individual.

Get this shite away from Scotland, along with the OO marches, and if these dicks want to "celebrate" whatever it is that they think is worth marching for, then gtf to Ireland (North/South) and stop polluting Scotland's streets with their bigoted mayhem.

 

Seems from the red dot that there are some who want the "other" side's marches banned, but quite happy for their own side's Oirish history fests to go ahead.  🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

West of Scotland society summed up imo.

Agree, get it all to f**k.

Let's hope that, if the commission is truly "non-partisan", then they will look at ALL marches and parades, irrespective of their "tradition" that cause offence or disrupt the lives of normal, ordinary Scots.

I don’t entirely sure what they mean when they say non partisan 

This isn’t a more than one side issue.

@AsimButtHitsASix    For starters, the pro-IRA one mentioned above.  All of the marches/parades that have their political or religious origins in Ireland celebrating or beatifying the protagonists can gtf out of Scotland and if people want to participate, then let them do it with their "ain folk" in Ireland.

Its because of football, specifically two footballs clubs who give fuel and oxygen to this topic. Who do so knowingly and deliberately. Who are so fucking obsessed over eachother that any perceived preferential treatment results in a massove tantrum and this attotude has filtered down to the lowest reaches of those who follow them.

The clubs knowingly stoke division, the clubs knowingly claim to be treated unfairly by all, and the government pander to them. You can hardly complain when it happens to go a way you dont like on this occassion. Football and this particular issue are intrinsically linked in Scotland and those two clubs fans choose to either participate in it or turn a blind eye in order to follow successful clubs.

Anti catholic walks isn’t a both sides issues 

the only issue is that we allow these marches to still go on

it shouldn’t be catholic v bigots, it should be society v the bigots 

Edit: I’m struggling to think of anything Celtic has done to stoke up anti catholic hatred 

Or is this a similar to the schools debate that just existing is enough of an excuse?

The fact that both-sideism exists stems from both football clubs who exist at the heart of it all. This wouldnt happen if both didnt constantly shriek about the unfairness of it all from football, all the way up to govt policy decisions as a dogwhistle to their moronic fans.

You genuinely believe without football we wouldn’t have anti catholic marches every year?

Im struggling to take that seriously if I’m being honest 

And again, we don’t have a both sides here

So you don’t the the pro IRA parades as an issue . Just the ones you don’t like ?

what they mean by non-partisan is that no one with your frame of mind is involved

You're determined to follow the "anti-catholic" line here and make loud calls for the OO marches to be banned.  Many would agree they should be banned, but for more reasons than just the one you're hanging on to.  There's also the disruption caused as well as the perennial offending by the moronic hangers-on.

Do you support the pro-IRA planned march to celebrate the life of one of their "martyrs", and, if so, can you explain why such a march should be taking place in Scotland ??

Should it be only the marches by the OO that should be banned given your emphasis of "anti-catholic" prevalence, or should it be ANY march promoting or celebrating non-Scottish bigotry ??

How many 'pro IRA' marches are there compared to Orange marches ?

And what makes them 'pro IRA' as opposed to merely being either 'Republican' or indeed a celebration of the Irish diaspora ?

Or are we just labelling anything that isn't an Orange march, an IRA march ?
