Ed Miliband picked a bad week to trumpet wind power becoming Britain's "biggest source of electricity", says Ben Pile, as a cold snap sent costs spiralling and brought gas-starved Britain to the brink of deadly blackouts.

Do You Know This Man?

category dublin | crime and justice | opinion/analysis author Thursday March 02, 2006 22:53author by Crimeline - Reactionary media Report this post to the editors

Ring Leader of Dublin Riots!

Do you know who this man is?
Pictured here enciting crowds to riot on O Connell st. during last Saturdays disturbances the Gardai are urgently seeking your help in finding him.
Suspect leads crowd
Suspect leads crowd

This man, known only as "Big Jim", was blatantly encouraging rioters to destroy our fair city last saturday holding his hands aloft and proclaiming "The great are only great because we are on our knees, Arise!".

He is believed to have been involved in co-ordinated disturbances in the Capital several times in the past including an incident where the GPO was attacked and several shops were looted.

Garda sources indicate that "Big Jim" was born in Liverpool and has been involved in public disorder there and in Belfast as part of self-styled "anti-capitalist" groups.

If you have any information about this dangerous man please contact your nearest Garda station.

This is pure media misinformation, "Big Jim" was in America during the storming of the GPO and there are witnesses to prove it!

No coincidence , nay , tis a sure sign. I say get Jim Cusack and his "sources" onto this one . ( he has sources..y'know , and theyre amazing )

Another scoop for Indymedia .

no. you are thinking of his even more dangerous associate james connolly. i believe he was also involved in some disturbances in o'connell street. the papers of his day condemned him as did a lot of the "left" calling his actions sectarian. there was even some opportunistic looting during those disturbances as well.

Finally,

A bit of veracity in this appalling gig. That tall scumbag, that yob, that knacker, with deficient DNA and the left lobe slightly retarded, who pretends he supports Keano's team when he is in fact a Rangers supporter [he has Glaswegian friends], has been seen by some of our members cavorting with SWP, SP, LPYouth and SF trolls. Nothing more needs to be said.

Well done lads. Signs of the ripening of time as JC (elsewhere known as Conn) would have commented.

One key question remains: How come this rogue's intentions came as such a surprise to us all, to the Guards, to the Indo, to Myers, to the Village and our very own Ch? After all that publicity of his exploits in France, in the UK, in Colombia and Venezuela and quite often in Palestine? One thing is sure - this fb does travel!! Who pays for him and what papers does he carry? We must examine this issue more perceptively soon. Any suggestions?

This fella 'Big Jim' is known for his anti-police and anti-Irish views. Some years ago he was jailed in New York. In NYC law and order is largely upheld by brave Irishmen. But Big Jim insulted them by saying that when St.Patrick drove the snakes out of Ireland they came to NYC and joined the police force.

On behalf of the proletariat of Belfield I wish to condemn this scoundrel Larkin. His riots which disrupted the City in 1913 were the actions of a few hooligans.

Far worse though was the Green Sectarian riots caused by James Connolly in 1916. This notorius Nationalist divided the Working Class by his Anti Protestant actions. The usual lumpen suspects were out looting in 1916 just as their grandchildren were in 2006.

Funny how HMSP never polls very well in Inner City areas. Whatever are we doing wrong?

Not too sure what Larkin would have made of the fascist chav riots, or Connolly for that matter.
But I can safely say Pearse would definitely have approved.
All those fine manly lads getting hot and manly together.

Apparently the suspect WAS questioned at length, and responded to all questioning with a stony silence. The interrogation was held in situ, on three small step ladders, by Gardai posing as Dublin Council workers, as the suspect refused to budge. Gardai were forced to cease interrogating the suspect, as they were unable to identify him, or understand why he wouldn't come down to the station, and kept getting asked for directions from obese American tourerists. Reports from unconfirmed sources say that the suspect muttered "this is my plinth, and I'm sticking to it", but Gardai will neither confirm or deny these allegations. They are keeping a close watch on his movements.
