    This video makes me very sad.I can see whats coming down the road and its not nice.We as irish people need to stand up and fight for our nation.These people dont care about us, they only want to use us.They dont respect us our or country.We do need a new political party.”OUR HOME IS IRELAND”

  5. any muslim dares …
    any muslim dares burn an irish flag in dublin il personally go up and shoot him myself. i have no problem with any race or religion, but if they come to MY country they should conform to OUR rules.if they dont want to, GET OUT. the fact we cud be a minority in our own country is so sad. im hope this doesnt happen. Close the doors Brian Cowen, we have no jobs left anymore, not enough for ourselves never mind ourselves. go and sort ye’re own countries out dont run away. id never leave ireland.

  6. we will destroy it …
    we will destroy it even more unless we say NO TO LISBON!!!

  7. The EU is destoying …
    The EU is destoying our countries in the name of multi-culturism. White people are fleeing the cities for the country and the remaining “white” countries (which won’t remain white for much longer) The Irish need to speak up about this, Ireland has been through to much for to long to loose it all like this, you deserve 1.5% of the earths surface to preserve your OWN race, culture and history.

  8. Well stand up and …
    Well stand up and fight for Ireland – don’t let the satanic liberals destroy Ireland – WAKE UP!

  9. You cannot …
    You cannot sugar-coat the effects of mass-immigration and multi-culturalism, it will destroy Ireland if left unchecked.
    As for the people who have a self-imposed blindness to what’s happening, and where it is leading us – well you will wake up soon enough, when you are fighting for survival.

    If left unchecked, the consequences will be dire, far-right extremism will rise and the violence ensuing will eclipse even the Troubles.
    That can’t be stopped, no internet hero on YouTube can change it.

  10. Thanks for the …
    Thanks for the support mamayanga, the song is Hymne by Era.

  13. If people would …
    If people would stop voting for the socialist parties we would not be having this forced down your throats multiculturalism insanity.
    The socialist parties continually fail the country at every turn, and come election time the very same voters that have been so badly failed by the socialist will turn out in their millions and vote for the……………………………………………………………….. socialists. Doh!!

    IRELAND FOR THE IRISH

  15. i hope one day …
    i hope one day you’ll understand how ridiculous your ideas are. do you believe you are the first ones dreaming of utopia? it has been tried. there is a big force playing against you. it is called HUMAN NATURE. it is that human nature that guides us. so what happens once a nation has been overrun by newcomers? what happens when free trade takes away all the jobs? so what happens when the social order in your utopia colapses? eh?

  16. It is quite a …
    It is quite a chuckle when you cry like a baby accusing me of silencing your views, when I’m simply engaging them and defending the right of individuals to start businesses, have children, and live lives free from the tyranny of a state or majority that bases itself on the banality of shamrocks and kilts. It is self-evident that the more individuals feel INVITED rather than commanded into any culture, the more it will flourish! Start making logical sense, rather than ad hominem attacks.

  17. If it isn’t clear …
    If it isn’t clear already, I’m a libertarian who defends free trade in markets, people and ideas. Kilts, shamrocks and ideas like yours have just as much a right to exist as anything else. However, having the state or “established” order dictate to people what is or isn’t a part of the “nation” both degrades and renders frivolous the authenticity of that national culture. In other words, keep identity to YOURSELF!–it is yours after all. Such is my only request.

  18. The utter inhuman …
    The utter inhuman depravity of Germany’s Auschwitz and Stalinist Russia would not have occured if the majority in those countries didn’t endorse state-planning and dictatorship in economics, culture, and people. On the one hand, you clearly denounce and disdain this sort of behaviour. But, on the other hand, you seem willing to endorse state-planning in cultural identities and economics–beholden to some undefined “mainstream” or “established order.” So, whose being the socialist?

  19. Giday PR, I never …
    Giday PR, I never said I supported unlimited immigration, nor am I blind to social problems that can arise from it. But if this is to be debated we need real facts (the real number of immigrants is closer to 10% not 20%). if comparisions are used they must be consistent. No use of false stereotypes which demonise, denigrate or dehumanise foreigners. This video shows an ideal Ireland, it doesnt show the dark parts which we need to face up to. I am proud to be Irish and stand for the truth.

  20. i gave you an …
    i gave you an example of immigration where there is no conflict of nationhood nor religion and still there was friction. don’t talk to me about individual freedoms. my great grandmother was murdered in auschwitz, other members of my family were tortured my socialists only because they dared to have different views than it was allowed. you talk about dignity and such so please tell me your views on immigration? what does it have to do with dignity and with tyranny. try to make some sense.

  21. see, you are just a …
    see, you are just a pompous little e who’s not ready for a normal friendly discussion. so irish culture is based upon shemrock, kilts and other nonsense eh? another words nothing worth defending. you look down upon me because my views are different than yours and yet you talk about individual freedoms. so who ever doesn’t share your supperior views is a rasist and a bigott. you socialists are all the same. would you like to send me to a labour camp?

  22. West Germany, I …
    West Germany, I might add, became an outstanding, flourishing and concrete example of individual freedom– loosed from the chains of collectivist tyranny (that you strangely and unwittingly seem to endorse)–despite (nay, because!) of the movement of thousands of East Germans and other nationalities to within its borders.

    to many good men …
    to many good men and women died for this land to be free

    and you think people would let this happen ahaha no chance

  24. This is too …
    This is too strenuous for you. It is obvious. And I will try to avoid patronizing you by avoiding pointing out to you the obvious correlation between racism, nationalism and religion. They certainly don’t all consistently work together in different contexts, but they all seem to manifest themselves in a similar way: that is, expressing an irrational fear and disdain for people based on tribal identity and disregard for individual liberty. Period.

  25. Furthermore, I …
    Furthermore, I can’t believe the level of incoherence in your argument. First, you tell me immigration to Ireland is bad because it threatens a “mainstream” culture based on shamrocks, kilts and other such nonsense, then you tell me it is bad due to some Malthusian inability to accommodate new people. Using yourself as an example, is immigration a zero-sum game? Or do immigrants contribute to the fabric of a nation’s economy and to human and national flourishing? I side with the latter.
