Unofficial facebook organised counter protest by Irish republicans leads to demise of crappest attempt at far right movement in Europe

Bye Bye DRM

Unofficial facebook organised counter protest by Irish republicans leads to demise of crappest attempt at far right movement in Europe

Comrades, due to activism that started from a facebook page stemming from 'DRM's semi-illiterate spokesman Michael Quinn verbally attacking highly thought ex-poltical prisoner and republican revolutionary singer/songwriter Ciaran Murphy, collective republican and anti-fascist activists abhorrance to British NF style fascism trying to rear its ugly head in Ireland has bore fruit, the pathetic rabble the 'DRM' has virtually crumbled overnight due to internal fueding between DRM number 1 Michael Quinn and his once erstwhile apprentice number 2 John Kavanagh(please remember DRMs active membership stood at approx 15).

While Quinn was hosting his bi-weeky online racist far right rants, Kavanagh hijacked the show and on air proclaimed 'Quinn is out of the DRM' and challenged his former mentor to a fistfight in Limerick.
This is related to the DRMs unsuccessful picket at the British embassy which Quinn is alleged to have abandoned due to Irish republicans and anti-fascists being present to confront them, but apparently Kavanagh and a handful of DRM members were prepared to carry out the protest but the founder and mouthpiece of the DRM Quinn himself never turned up, due to fear of confrontation, leaving his fellow DRM members in the lurch.

Quinn tried saving face by claiming he was present at the embassy on Tuesday morning at the publicised time to support famous youtube train bigot Emma West, attempting to maintain an utterly patheic picket at the British embassy in the early hours of Wednesday morning a full day after the advertised time for his protest with another loyal fascist and 3 members of his own family aged from early to mid teens proves he was there and defied any counter protest mounted by republicans and anti-fascists.
But the not so bright Quinn forgot to change the date on the camera he captured a four second clip of the miserable and swift protest which shows his young children and DRM buddy cowering against a wall in the rain, the date reads 4/01/12, it can be seen here(please note the music in the video produced by Quinn is by British Loyalist/Neo-Nazi band Sckrewdriver, a renowned anti-Irish group) http://m.youtube.com/ index?desktop_uri=%2F&gl=IE#/watch?v=PuAQ3CLV--8

It is fair to say the 'DRM' is finished, any rotten hopes they had of progressing are now dashed by their very enemies in republicanisn/socialism/anti-fascist action. Its leader and pied piper Quinn, outed as a coward and liar by his own once former dedicated disciples. Its back to the online fantasy realm talking shop that is Stormfront for them, and for us anti-fascists, that is place we are happy for them to stay. Tiocfaidh ar la agus NO PARASAN

this article is rubbish, is it supposed to inform people of anything , who the hell knows what drm is or was

Those drm turds were an annoying loudmouthed pack of dickheads mouthing off on internet and e-mail but invisible in the real world. In Quinns rant against Ciaran the bogmonster also claimed that he"fought de brits" by popping into Derry from Donegal to lob bricks and petrol bombs, quite a detour from the south to approach Derry, must have been in Bundoran for a weekend. And the aptly named "mug" Sorry you having trouble reading a plain article, try wiping the foam from your gob and start again.

You do realise that they put pictures up on their radio show TUESDAY night showing that protest at the British Embassy.
How do you expect to maintain even the slightest bit of credibility when you blatantly lie in your article?

Do the DRM have time-machine?

I wonder how long this comment will stay up!

David aka Smoke without fire

Where you and your cohorts present for 10am on Tuesday morning, the publicised time for your protest.

I can tell you that you werent,

So all your talk of character and integrity is frankly shite, you werent there at time you said you would be and the reason being was because you were afraid of republican counter protesters who were there.

When you did attend your......protest(use word loosely), it was only youself and Michael Quinn who brought his young children,
Well after time you said you'd be there

Your attempt to bring neo-nazism to Dublin is finished, your cowardice was your undoing, future credibility=zero

I suggest listening to abit of Marvin Gaye

Who do you think I am? Is this a underhanded attempt to deflect attention away from the fact that this article is complete nonsense.

You can't justify or defend lies like this. Your attempt to do so - and you ARE doing so in a dishonourable and despicable fashion by changing the subject - is quite pathetic.

Under the videos on YouTube it gives the date they are uploaded.

That DRM protest video was uploaded on the 3rd.

I do not the support the DRM,but I do believe they need to be combated without lies and dishonourable actions.

I can see now why they have a louder voice than they should.

Tell you what SMWF oh Im sorry David!

You organise another crap attempt at a BNP themed protest in support of a bigoted drug addled bint and actually turn up for time you advertise and we'll be there to meet you

Your use of the word 'truth' and 'integrity' in which you have none of, give you away

I was one of the republicans there that day, I was there from well before ten and I stayed until about 11:45 am. I was standing on the corner of merrion road opposite Bewleys. I certainly seen no DRM protest while I was there and I know that my comrades will say the same. The DRM have no crediblity anymore, this was a firm victory on our behalf, we scared them off the streets and caused a split in their leadership. NO PASARAN!
