Think it was Batt O'Keefe's car

He's grand apparently. No doubt he'll milk it.

Batt O'Keefe in his chariot. Gr.

I hope the protester is OK.

I cant help thinking this incident sums up the utter, complete and absolute contempt FF/Greens have for the Irish people.

A sad metaphor for a very sad day.

Grossly unfair.

Cop on ffs.

The Garda driver should be charged with reckless driving.

I hope he sues the ************************.

When there is an organised protest, we all better get of our backsides and make sure we kick these traitors out of goverment.
A chapter in this historical event must document in years to come how we rid this country of FF scum.

Driver is always in the wrong. Pedestrians always in the right.

Being a Garda does not trump the law.

Seriously,are the Gardai prepared to take the fall for the government?

The "Guardians of the Peace" have already shown their position.

I was right beside it. The guy was not badly hurt, although I'd say it was sore enough.The car stopped on his ankle when some SF clown attacked the car with his bamboo flag pole. Mayhem & confusion ensued, one garda ended up on the deck. The garda beside me saw but denied it. He went off in an ambulance. (BTW Pity there wasn't more keyboard warriors there. Met a few P.IE people there)

The lad was a member of Ogra Shinn Fein. Witnesses there allege that it was Batt O'Keefe's ministerial car.

 

[lonemother]

It was Batt O'Keefe's car. I was there.

 

[bonkers]

he left the scene of an accident as well,will he be charged?

 

[KENNY POWERS]

Question. Are Garda drivers allowed leave the scene of a RTA?

 

[dresden8]

His garda driver left the scene of an accident.

Get the facts straight and then press the law.

 

[EUrJokingMeRight]

More careless behaviour from FF.
Another bug squished on the windscreen. That is all the people of Ireland are to FF, an annoyance, to be trampled over at each and every opportunity.
I hope the pedestrian makes a full recovery.

Driver is always in the wrong. Pedestrians always in the right.

Huh?
