Why are Ógra Shinn Féin claiming to be a patriotic organisation yet aligning themselves with elements such as Freemasonry,Marxism and Zionism who seek to ruin Ireland?

They are behind the gay agenda which aims to destroy the family.The family is the cornerstone of Irish society.

Why is Ógra Shinn Féin supporting and ideology, an agency and a lifestyle that is undermining a bedrock of the Irish family and Society?

People talk about the "gay agenda". Anonymous, could you possibly forward me a copy of the "gay agenda", I would be very interested in reading it. I presume it could be summarised to be something along the lines of "Gay rights = equality". A worrying agenda indeed. Also could you point me towards an analysis of the joint forces of freemasonry, Marxism, and Zionism, that shows they are not only seeking to ruin Ireland, but the evidence to suggest that OSF are aligned with them? A strange bunch of befellows indeed. Jim Corr, is that you??! I'm a big fan of your work! Freemasonry and Zionism might seek to ruin something, and some of OSF may identify as Marxists, but they sure as shit aren't ruining this country.

Anonymous, gay rights do not undermine the family. Bigots like you to.

By the way, a word to the moderators of this blog, if anonymous commentators who haven't the stones to put their names beside their comments are going to be allowed free reign to post bigoted bullshit (I presume in the spirit of "free debate") like that above, your comment approval system serves no purpose.

This comment shows a complete lack of understanding of the campaign for equality.

Equality means equality.

Not destroying people of a different view's way of life.

republicans support the rights of ALL citizens.

Which comment is that directed at exactly?

Do you support Safe and Legal in Ireland Abortion Rights Campaign, Stephie?

It's a bit rich calling me a bigot and yet you support an ideology that supports the killing of Irish citizens.The abortion industry is big business.

Anon, it's news to me that foetuses can be citizens of anywhere. I'm not aware of a single country that confers citizenship before birth. Maybe you can point me to the relevant Irish law in particular.

The abortion industry is big business.

Easy solution to that, bring it within a universal health care system.

Stephanie said...

Citizens? Please. That's hilarious. Clearly you don't understand what citizenship is. This blogpost is not the place for this but seeing as you've asked yes I support the safe and legal abortion campaign. You see the thing is Oh-Anonymous-One-Who-Hasn't-the-Nerve-to-put-their-name-to-their-bigotry, citizens have rights. A foetus is not BORN thus not a citizen. The born should have rights. A woman's uterus is not a democracy, and I'm afraid you and any other actual 'citizens' don't get a say in that.
Grow up, stop trying to turn this in to an argument about abortion when all I was asking for you was to account for your bigotry.
It's very clear. All people should have equal rights, if you don't believe in equality, you are in the plainest terms, a bigot.

Being het to the core, I'm nevertheless really glad you support human rights of all people! I'm very aware that being second class citizens in one's own country for generations makes people susceptible to treat others even more degrading. Thank you OFS for avoiding this trap.

Totally against abortions an believe everyone has rights gays straights unborn whatever were all living creatures respect that sinead

Stephanie said...

I don't understand how these threads get hijacked by anti-choicers. Anyway, "Sinead" it's very simple. If you are "against abortions", don't have one. And perhaps you might try extending your belief that "everyone should have rights" to other women. You have no business in any other woman's uterus. You don't get to decide for other people. Respect that.

End of.

Can we get back to the actual point of this thread now? LGBTQ issues anyone?

What about sperms? Don't forget the sperms Sinéad!
