Irish Republican Media - O'Connell Street
On 25 February 2006, loyalists from Northern Ireland attempted to march down O'Connell Street in Dublin.
This group known as FAIR is a bias, bigoted organisation that attempts to rewrite history and make claims that those in Northern Ireland who claim to be british have suffered at the hands of the Irish for centuries.
They organise marches through Catholic areas in efforts to spread their hate mongering much like the KKK did through black areas in Mississippi back in America during the 1950's.
Their marches include many loyalist bands singing anti-Catholic/anti-Irish songs, carrying loyalist paramilitary memorabilia, and many that participate in these marches have ties with or were themselves former loyalist paramilitaries who have killed Irish men, women, and children merely for being Irish and Catholic.
This 'love parade' as they labeled it, involved having pro-british bands march down O'Connell Street to the GPO while singing anti-Irish songs and carried pictures of the loyalist paramilitaries who bombed Dublin just years ago and killed many relatives of those who live there today.
Needless to say thousands of Irish men and women from across the nation came out in a matter of minutes and filled O'Connell Street to stop this event.
In the end, due to the overwhelming amount of people that showed up to protest this blatant display of racism, the group was forced to board their buses and go home.
