Or so say the Police Service of Northern Ireland

http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/ ... 53906.html

It is my opinion that it is ridiculous that the local government can support the Irish language in some settings but should it be used the police will arrest the speaker rather than attempting to find an interpreter.

What do you lot think? Who's in the wrong here?

What seriously? so they arrested someone in Ireland for speaking...Irish? Not quite sure what the possible logic is there. Either way I guess it safe to say this guy didn't kiss the Blarney Stone or should I say Cloch na Blarnan? :lol:

Northern Ireland isn't really Ireland anymore. It's kind of like the wannabe vamp kid who use to wear Banana Republic but then visited Hot Topic one day and has been buying clothes there ever since.

Got to keep those pesky republicans tricolors in tow. Even with the downfall of the IRA things are going to be tense and still are. Vice news did a documentary about the tensions in 2013 and they seemed to still be simmering even with "peace".

That tension can very easily come back to bite them in the ass and dismantle the peace.

They really need to calm the fuck down unless they want more pissed off Irish guys blowing banks up.

You can't be fucking serious. Why are most cops so damn stupid?
Legalize owning RPG's and nuclear weapons, reinstate hanging, add in burning meat grinders, stop giving shits for airplane crashes, shut the fuck up about banning guns, the south will NOT rise again, you are just ignorant, look down on the poor, modify genetics so fat kids taste like bacon, cats are better than dogs, if you don't like what's going on in the middle east, fix it yourself, Obama is a good president, just a bad Congress, MLP is a kickass show.
