A 29-year-old man has been charged after a snowman holding a rocket launcher was painted on the window of a republican support group's office in Londonderry.
The image included the message: "Wishing you an Explosive Christmas."
It appeared at the office of the Irish Republican Prisoners Welfare Association in Chamberlain Street.
The man has been charged with two counts of permitting display of anything provocative.

The IRA was and is (in its current, more quiet form under other names) a leftist organization from the U.S. point of view. The IRA supported the terrorists of the PLO (Palestinian Liberation Organization) and other baddies. The IRA was also supported by university administrators and other leftists in the U.S.A., mostly in locales with more public corruption than others (see Mafia, religious affiliation, etc.).
The IRA is evil.
two counts of permitting display of anything provocative.
First, they strip you of your guns.
Then, they strip you of your mind.
“..two counts of permitting display of anything provocative....”
And to think this is the country that stood alone against the Germans in 1940.
Don’t mean to ‘drag’ you into the ‘middle of something’ and I do appreciate your effort etc..

Yes, please explain the Irish Republican Army to me.
Are they the same as the Iraqi Republican Guard?
Yes, that is a sarcastic answer.
Just what part of my post would ANY reasonably intelligent person think is serious?
Or am I just downright mistaken thinking YOU may be reasonably intelligent?
or Vermont?
Texas has a Paris, an Italy, a Rhome, and a Naples. Petersburg, Paducah, Holland, Bogata, Hebron...a Miami, and a Havana. There's a Detroit and a Nevada. Venus, Rising Star, Vega, and a Milano. An Eden, and a Paradise. A Troy, an Itasca...a Loco, a Ding Dong and a Telephone. Heidelberg, and Memphis. Newark, Omaha, Jamaica Beach, and a Sudan. Two places called 'Los Angeles'; one of them census designated place (pop. 121), and the other an unincorporated community (pop. 20). There's even a Canadian (take that, Oklahoma!).
I checked to see if there was a Londonderry, Texas. Found one. Only an area of Spring, Texas, so not a proper Londonderry. Do have a New London, and a New Berlin though, so there's always that.
Other Texas towns;
Dimebox
Cut and Shoot
Gun Barrel City
Bigfoot
Weeping Mary
Hogeye
Point Blank
Earth
Scurry
Wink
Geronimo
Log Cabin
Happy
Jolly (pop. 172)
Cool (pop. 157)
Blanket (pop. 390)
Nome
Nameless
Uncertain (Population 94)
...and whole bunch other places I forget the names of, or else everybody knows about, such as Mineral Wells, Wichita Falls, Waxahachie, and what they call Dallas down in Houston: "Little D".
Maybe you mean,’silly walks’?

I can understand why the locals might not find it as amusing as we do. Most Americans won’t remember the IRA and “The Troubles”.
We had someone here in SoCal openly raising money for them back in the 70s. I always wondered if it was an FBI sting.
The Brits have laws for everything.
I do, too. We were there for riots and bombings in the early 1980s.
