Ireland's prime minister pledged to modernise laws against hatred in the coming weeks after 34 people were arrested for rioting in Dublin on Thursday night.

"We will pass new laws in the coming weeks to enable the Gardai (police) to make better use of the CCTV evidence they collected yesterday, and also we will modernise our laws against incitement to hatred and hatred in general," Varadkar told a news conference on Friday.

"I think it's now very obvious to anyone who might have doubted us that our incitement to hatred legislation is just not up to date. It's not up to date for the social media age. And we need that legislation through within a matter of weeks."

Does Ireland have an anti-globalist party as in the Netherlands and France? If not, Irish patriots should learn from Geert Wilders and Marine Le Pen.

News flash: You cannot outlaw hate. Hating the right thing is an admirable trait. Nothing is so worthy of hate as is islam.

The guy does not understand the country he is in charge of. The man is a cultural ignoramus. Irish guys wake up looking for a fight and now they’ve got one. It’s only going to get worse for the immigrants in Ireland. If they were smart, they’ll get out now Because first blood was drawn.

The Irish should send their pajeet prime minister back from whence he came and expel the foreign invaders. But, have they the will to do so?

Irish Ballad the Benedy Glen:

Where have these sentiments gone?

Her daughters are fair and her sons they are gallant
They scorn the tyrant, the serf, or the slave
Their rights they maintain at the point of the bayonet
With an arm that is strong and a heart that is brave

No mention in the article of what sparked the riot.

It’s time for IRA to give it’s own government a right proper knee capping.

Hands off hate. If they mean expressions of hate (limit to free speech) or of thought (impossible unless part of a torture and brainwashing plan) then maybe.

US General Lew Wallace reminds us that hate is good:
"Your eyes are full of hate, forty-one. That's good. Hate keeps a man alive. It gives him strength."

Who am I to argue with Gen. Wallace?

It isn’t what they understand but what they want which is utter chaos. Will tell any lie to bring down western civilization. There is no reason because their position isn’t a misunderstanding. It’s rooted in evil.

The IRA-Sinn Fein Party is Marxist-Leninist woke and leads the polling data in Ireland.

They already hold 36 seats in the Parliament and intimidate the whole country in a Leftward direction including hostility to Israel.

This video from the Sinn Fein You Tube Channel “Israel Must Be Referred To The International Criminal Court Now”...

"Leo Varadkar doesn’t sound like a very Irish name"

He isn't Irish. He's a Hindu-chimp.

“They need to vote in conservatives... “

It’s a weird situation. In order for them to vote in conservatives, a totally new conservative party would need to emerge, much like the AfD has in Germany or VOX has in Spain. In Ireland, traditionalist “conservative” politics have long been anathema, associated with an Anglo-Irish protestant gentry that was widely despised. For the last 80 years or so, Irish politics has pretty much lacked a “conservative” or “right wing” party. If it were the U.S., the political spectrum would basically run from bomb-throwing revolutionary Marixst on the far left (think “the squad”) with, say, corporate liberals like Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden composing a center-left that is the de facto terminus of the spectrum.
