You've got a point, fair enough, but do you really think Delaney is advocating sectarianism/intimidation or lauding militant republicanism by singing a rebel ballad in the pub of a leafy Dublin suburb? I think he's just trying to be "one of the lads", and not doing a very good job of that either.
I imagine his interest in/ knowledge of McDonnell's career is roughly the same of the England fans at Celtic Park the other day, ie fcuk all. But he's not a dumb teenager, so aye to the latter at least.
What has suburban leafiness got to do with it. Are you an Irishtown estate agent?
Given what he'd probably been indulging in, we should be grateful for small mercies...
Come on GR, you know it paints a more harmless picture. If he had been singing in a run down alleyway in an unnamed part of town, broken glass on the ground, graffiti on the walls and a flagon of Linden Village in his hand, he'd clearly be a more hardcore sympathiser. The logic is flawed, however, as this time of year leaves are fairly scarce.

Yeah, but we can't all go on there...
Plus at least one person is exaggerating a good bit in this thread for 'effect'.
Replied...
Meanwhile, back in the surreal world...

I've been looking through a few John Delaney (drunk) videos on YouTube. Many of them are comical (strictly in a "laughing at" rather than a "laughing with" sense), but I still think this is my favourite:
Don't encourage him...
Plus there's more than a whiff of hypocrisy about the whole thing.
I dont mind admitting i sent her a few tweets, not anything nasty, but from her page its obvious John the Baptist uses it as a defacto twitter account for himself, since he has no account or fbook page, and with the constant barrage in the Indo I think its fair game tbh

The wolves gather around the victim. Will it escape?
Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
The victim? That buffalo has a considerable amount of power. What was he doing anyway to get himself into such a precarious situation? Advertising himself to the pack in broad daylight on a snowy white plain? You'd have to think of him as rather foolish. He'd have been better searching for a drink in a more secluded spot.
Probably. He'll live on another few years yet.Will it escape?
Nasty or not, are you proud of that? Whatever about Delaney, the woman has done nothing wrong yet she's being judged as culpable as her partner for what's gone on over the last few weeks
Have a look down through the list of messages she's received over the last few days here: https://twitter.com/search?q=to%3AEmmaKEnglish
Again, this woman has done nothing wrong, and certainly nothing that deserves some of those comments
