The Cranberries front woman Dolores O’Riordan died in January by drowning due to alcohol intoxication, an inquest at Westminster Coroner’s Court has heard.

    She’s was Fine Gael’s favourite musician, anti-choice, anti-women, spent most of her time in a Catholic Church.

      I used to think you were a troll Ina. Maybe you are who knows. You’re undoubtedly a nailed on ladypart though.

      I read one antichoice comment attributed to her from Hot Press about 25 years ago and all of a sudden she was co-opted, after her tragic death, by the loveboats . And so what if she was? She held a private view which has nothing to do with her dying far too young.

      1. Ina.

        She used to go around private schools telling young female students what would happen if they ‘murdered’ their babies. At least two of her closest friends were Catholic priests from Limerick who had, and have, awful records when it came to anti-women and anti-gay sentiments.

          Being pro life means nothing
          Its a free country
          But to use that to dam a woman who died shows exactly what sort of horror you are
          I thank god for one thing in life
          And its never running into vile Ina

          1. Ina.

            Going into girls schools and telling lies about what will happen to you if you ‘murder’ your babies is a horrible thing to do. It’s extremely harmful. As is telling young women that being a lesbian is something that can be ‘cured’. Just because somebody died tragically doesn’t mean that you can’t criticize the awful things they did during their life.

            No but maybe show a little respect. That’s something everyone is entitled to, regardless of their personal beliefs.

      Oh shut up, you bitter, twisted, sad, loathsome idiot. Save it for another day. Tragic way to lose a mother.

    People under stress sometimes resort to alcohol or drugs, but objectively speaking they provide illusory comfort. They only depress further.

    I realise it wasn’t the best way to go but I was glad to hear that she didn’t deliberately check out.

    Died by Downing, BS. Read the report, she died by drowning as a result of alcohol intoxication. RIP regardless, but let’s be clear.

    Downed by Downing, BS.

    The coroner recorded accidental death by drowning caused by excessive alcohol consumption.
