[Judge of the Day Hall of Famer Seamus Hughes]
Hughes again.
Telling the court that it was their “first meeting”, Judge Hughes asked Power to explain his behaviour.
“I dunno. It was Paddy’s Day. I was mouldy,” he said.
In mitigation, Mr Cooney told how his client left school at 14, had been expelled from a FÁS course, was unable to read and write, and suffered from ADHD.
“Ah sure half the population has that. That’s just something from the imagination of three pharmaceutical companies.“
What the Glaxo Smithkline Beecham!?
Judge suggests ADHD is just a pharma creation (Mullingar Advertiser)
Yes.
“This was a terrible tragedy, but sometimes these things just happen and there’s nothing anyone can do to stop them,” said North Carolina resident Samuel Wipper, echoing sentiments expressed by tens of millions of individuals who reside in a nation where over half of the world’s deadliest mass shootings have occurred in the past 50 years and whose citizens are 20 times more likely to die of gun violence than those of other developed nations.”

“The stamp marks the 100th Anniversary of the signing of the Government of Ireland Act 1914, better known as the Home Rule Act. The 60c stamp, designed by Ger Garland, features John Redmond, Leader of the Irish Parliamentary Party, and Unionist politician Edward Carson. An accompanying first day cover features the stamp and a reproduction of a satirical cartoon of the time. The stamp features Carson and Redmond against a map of Ireland. Both are available at www.irishstamps.ie, main post offices or the Irish Stamp shop in Dublin’s GPO.”
