“Perhaps the strangest poster yet for the forthcoming referendum. Spotted on a bus shelter in central Dublin yesterday. Comparing yes voters to Hitler and Lenin. That’s my mind made up so. Priceless.”
Course I did
You missed the sliced up child next to it
Maybe the repeal mob did it to blame the keep the eight amendment lot
Mind you Hitler banned smoking and he also made sure the disabled were put to sleep
With modern scanning they will be able to access if the baby will be a drain on resources and advise the distressed mother that their could be a solution
Remember the rights of the unborn will be gone ,and this could happen

Access to legal and safe abortion was made available by the Bolsheviks in 1920 ; however it was banned in 1936 (the law in fairness included many provisions to remove economic necessity as a reason for abortion).
The Nazis permitted abortion in the case of fatal foetal abnormality but the doctor who aborted an ‘Aryan’ baby (in the sense in which the Nazis used that term) could be executed.

this could be the transcript of a conversation with 80% of the no voters in fairness.

Oh, this is something. Where can I purchase a signed print?
Brother Barnabas
at the very end, it has his name, phone number and, i think, an invitation to purchase an original copy for €5
so there you go!
garthicus
Ha, well spotted! Thanks
garthicus
Does that actually say ‘Yes voters killed the Jews’ ?
Starina
and “grown-ups”, too

Is it really true that voting No has the biggest lead in world political history?
TheRealJane
That depends on a lot of redefinition of words. Like biggest, history, lead, for example.
Personally, although I do hope and will vote for a specific outcome, I think either side would be unwise to use such grandiose terms.
newsjustin
That is the greatest reply in the history of online political discourse Jane. Well done.

No no – “lead” – like lead pencil. They have a ginormus one.
Frilly Keane
ah
ye needn’t worry about david rising to it today
he’s too busy doing what lads do over porno mags
Today’s Phoenix centerfold is John McGuirk
TheRealJane
Don’t do it, kids.
Papi
There goes all appetite for a fair while.
Brother Barnabas
seeing as he does actually have his name, address and phone number at the end of it, how about asking him to make an appearance on broadsheet on the telly? the whingers keep saying it’s an echo chamber, but this would fix that
mildred st. meadowlark
Good idea.
It’d be carnage, and sure we all love a good scrap.
Starina
wanna bet it’s the same auld fella who was shouting at people regustering to vote at Trinity this week?

I’d love to see Vanessa make minced poo out of him

Seems perfectly reasonable, put him in charge of something.

I hate the fuppin’ referendum – all the ghouls come out, the creepyness of some of the “campaigning” is grim..and the fear of lawsuits has every clown on the airwaves in the pursuit of absolute balance..radio off till June..
In June 1978, the Children’s Protection Society complained to gardaí about a “shameful film” being shown at the Irish Film Theatre on Dublin’s Earlsfort Terrace. The society’s secretary, John P Clerkin, wrote that he attended the members-only cinema and saw Arabian Nights which contained full-frontal nudity, explicit sex, decapitation and ritual killing. He questioned how such a film could be shown in a theatre opposite UCD.
Three days later, a Garda sergeant went into the cinema and viewed the film for 10 to 15 minutes. He said he saw a naked couple on the bed making love “although it was obvious no sexual intercourse was taking place”. A Garda inspector investigated the legislation and reported that club cinemas did not fall under the film censor’s remit because the films could only be viewed by members and so were not shown “in public”.

wow, just wow
he’s got to make his own tiny mind spin
Boules
Fair enough that this guy is clearly deranged and it’s very nice to be sympathetic towards him but he can’t just go around putting up any posters at will, never-mind such hateful tripe as this.
Could Bodger please post the exact location of this poster so that it can be reported to the relevant Local Authority. It will be liable to a €150 litter fine.
Luckily, he wont be too hard to track down.
Is this Renua’s official ad?
You put that up David..
Course I did

My brain hurts from this guy!!
https://www.irishtimes.com/opinion/letters/selling-condoms-1.44115
definitely seems like someone who should be given responsibility for protecting children
That’s actually our very own david.
We finally solved it.
He’s a fine auld sketch artist too! Beautiful drawings to go with his bile.
Is it really? The constant ranting about jews is definitely similar.
i’m beginning to think it is…
If there were laws regarding slander I would sue your little botty off for that one
How dare you
Insults now accusations
Next what ?
haha
now THAT is an outrage erection
Excellent work. I’d say he’s “Oy Vey’ing” all over the place.
Edit: Brother Barnabas beat me to it.
I can only presume the editor had been at the gin when clearing those letters for publication.
