Warning on 4Chan (above) and the damaged window of Panti Bar (top) after a brick duct taped with the Irish words for ‘Fairies Out Of Ireland’ was thrown through it last Friday

Further to last Friday’s brick-throwing at Panti Bar, on Capel Street, Dublin 1…

The pride-less lout provided real-time commentary on 4Chan.

Aaron Rogan and Ellen Coyne, of The Times Ireland edition, report:

An analysis of the 4chan website by Storyful…found that a person appeared to have been updating other users of the incident before it happened.

….Another poster posed the possibility of getting caught, to which the first poster replied: “Gardaí are about so that’s a possibility but I’m on a bike and can outspeed the ones on foot plus bouncers”.

At 11.03pm they wrote: “Fag herd at door has thinned taking my chance.” They told other posters to look for them in the papers. One replied “hope you end up in prison” and another said “god speed”.

    I wonder if this particular criminal mastermind was clever enough to disguise his IP address before posting his delightful commentary.

            thanks, I thought it was a /pol/ thing to do. They live in fear of anybody who’s not a white male..

    “the fag herd”?!? Ridiculous as it is, you’ve gotta somehow love the sheer idiocy of this poor gink – fearless fighter for justice! :-D

          How dare you! This is Batman/the Green Hornet and Spiderman combined – riding to battle on his BMX bike :-D

            Some very fit men drink in Panti Frilly, no surprise he was caught, even on a bicycle.

            Reminds me of when Veda (the dragon of Rialto) was verbally abused by a car outside George. Mobile pic of number plate resulted in an identification within the hour. God help him when the mammy found out. Close neighbour too.

      so the brick didnt actually go through the window? not that it matters much.
      incident of petty crime given over the top media coverage by publicity hungry bar owner

      1. SOQ

        The window didn’t break so less intent. Reinforced glass doesn’t factor with you at all so.

      2. SOQ

        Oh and one other thing. The media coverage would have been exactly the same if it had to have been any of the other gay venues in Dublin. If you think Rory O’Neill needs this sort of exposure for his business then you clearly have never been there.
