I wonder how they knew he was a catholic

Vernier calipers

hard to beat a bit of black comedy. aren't these the crowd looking for money/grants to create the 'orange quarter' maybe they think some authentic catholic bashing will add merit to their handout... errr i mean grant application

Sectarian savages. You would have hoped those days were over.

[Orangemac]

Pure scum, probably looked for protection money from the film crew as well.

This is not an attempt to stir, but do you think that it matters not one iota that the perpetrators were prods and the victim a taig?  Such thuggery is becoming pretty commonplace in Perth every weekend, without the "label" we have in the north.

Fed up with this sickening violence.

Why can't the people of the Village just move on like the rest of us have?

I thought the village was full of various sorts of foreigners these days.

Sure minder they chased them all out last year

According to a caller on Nolan this morning this was a cross community initiative and they had been filming in the Short strand prior to this (some time over the last few weeks I think he said). He suggested that it was common knowledge that this return visit was happening if I remember correctly

I used to live just of the Lisburn road many years ago, was dandering home with the mate and another girl, we cut through the street that runs along side Dublin road, dodgy as fcuk I know, nature called and i had a piss up an entry. When i got back onto the street my friends were away down the other end.

Two boyos arrived on my shoulder and asked the usual stupid questions "alright mate, whats your name, where ya from, where ya heading to, say h" (made that bit up) eventually they took a wild guess and called me a Fenian cnut!!! maybe it was my good looks and charm that convinced them

At this point i pushed off from them and ran, ran like my life depended on it. they were squealing (like f**king mad men) going to shoot you, ya bastard and so on. Never catching me.

My friends seen this happening and alerted the police who were really close (by chance), the police came down the street looking for me. The first place they looked for me was in the black bins!!! Just shows you that they knew that these animals would cut ya up and f**k you into a bin to die!!!

Very lucky boy

Lowlifes. Why is sectarianism so deeply ingrained in Loyalism?

Obviously sectarianism occurs on both sides of the spectrum but the sheer venom you get with Loyalists is unrivaled. They are a truly disturbed people.

Lets not generalise.

These feckers who carry this out wont be changing in a hurry, its a mindset handed down by their families, deep rooted and as long as they live in these ghettos they will continue to generate this hatred.

[Milltown Row2]

Yes, these wee villages and towns have their feckers to.

Lets not generalise.

The whole colonial 17th century thing is deeply disturbed.

In a ghetto, a stupid youth might fall in with others  and get into this kind of thing, even if his family were not especially bigoted.

might not help or solve the issue but interesting to know that The Village area is to undergo a regeneration scheme, works beginnng in March/April time.
Good bit of the area being cleaned out and new social housing to be built. Works will be phased and will include a substantial amount of new housing. Fun for the builders who get that work.

Would it not be safe to say if you had of zipped down your top and showed them a rangers jersy they would still have given you hammering because they didnt know you?  Scum are scum and sometimes the sectarian issue is just an excuse.

Exactly my point, when they didn't know they just attacked anyway, a guess which could have ended my life!!

Can the prominent members of this community not get a grip on the troublemakers - surely someone would be able to explain to these assholes that getting a film crew to come into their area would be a good thing and raise their profile. Possibly even treat them with some manners and make them walk away saying 'that area of belfast was a nice place!' - what do the idiots do? chase the film crew and and try to kill a lad because of his religious beliefs! UNBELIEVABLE.

I wonder are the cops interviewing the man and woman who let the gang into their house to get at the cub?
