It’s simple, really.
All mice eat cheese.
Johnny eats cheese
Therefore Johnny is a mouse
Or try this:
My sister lives in Portadown
Nathan Dootery lives in Portadown
Therefor Nathan Dootery is my sister.
I could go on, but the absurdity of this kind of reasoning is blindingly obvious. Because one Irishman one day gets drunk does not mean that said Irishman gets drunk every day, or that I’m Irish so I must get drunk.
It’s called arguing from the particular to the general – Nathan is stupid and is from Aghohill. I am from Aghohill therefore I am stupid. Or Joe has a squint and has a lovely singing voice. I have a squint. So I must have a lovely singing voice.
These examples show how insane this kind of reasoning is. But it was on that basis that a bunch of cowards howled for blood last night and intimidated people from their homes and last night set fire to a Glider (you do know WE will be paying for a Glider replacement, not the moon-calves who set fire to it?).
One final point. Clearly the baying moon-calves that stalked the Newtownards Road last night did so on the assumption that long-time residents of the Newtownards Road are innately superior to any furriners who might come here.
Pass the bucket, Virginia. Quick.
Where was Carla Lockhart and Co. You know the MP who stood with ‘her people’ to de-escalate potential trouble in Scarva on Saturday. Surely she should have been showing similar ‘leadership’ yesterday to prevent a situation becoming violent?
Maybe she or Gavin Robinson can explain. No doubt Nolan will get to the bottom of it.
The disgraceful scenes we witnessed last night were to be expected. The usual suspects got their voters all worked up and then did their customary Pontius Pilate routine. Political unionism has always behaved that way, Paisley used to fill his supporters’ heads with white mice and by the time they were destroying property and lives he was back home counting the collection. The whole dangerous foreigners narrative is an English nationalist one yet that does not stop the DUP from hanging onto Farage and co. Even though they threw them under the bus over Brexit.
not sure if i am getting it.
people say they don’t want fruit and nut cakes
a nut gets placed in assisted living.
six days later the nut goes on a mad one
people say i told you so
the great and the good say you are still wrong
it’s a racket.
some go along with the lie because they make money providing services
and some go along with the lie because it makes them feel good gaslighting people who get it
I think Shea has a point.
