On Saturday 27th May, Ogra Shinn Fein in strabane held a "Smash Political Policing" protest at railway street in the town. The protest was in response to the recent harassment of young Republicans in west Tyrone by the RUC/PSNI. During the protest, a number of Ogra Shinn Fein activists occupied the rooftop of the library and dropped a banner reading "Smash Political Policing Now". The protestors sounded airhorns and whistles to get the public's attention, while activists on the ground distributed information leaflets on political policing. While returning from the protest one young activist was approached and grabbed by a member of the RUC/PSNI, though when confronted by another group of protestors the harassment ceased. Speaking on the protest Ogra Shinn Fein spokesperson Sean Mac Giolla Easpaig said, "Today young people have decided to challenge the injustices carried out on a daily basis by the RUC/PSNI. The use of this police force as a political tool against Republicans by those with a unionist securocrat agenda, is an accepted fact and has been in operation scince the formation of the state police in the six counties. If we ars to move into the future in an Ireland of equals, then political and sectarian policing must be confined to the history books". " We in Ogra Shinn Fein will continue to challenge and expose the political, partisan nature of this so-called "new police service". |

Aye, the older Sinn Feiners seem to be too busy with other things, like taking in the view from the roof of Stormont!
i am confused by OSF's protest against the police..... why does your parent organization support the police and in fact why does your president ask IRA members to turn themselves into the police?
unless RTE online is lying here..............
"Adams makes appeal to Tohill kidnappers
06 May 2006 19:51
The Sinn Féin president Gerry Adams has said that four men who failed to appear for sentencing at a Belfast court yesterday should have turned up and he appealed to them to do so now.
The four men, Gerard McCrory, Liam Rainey, Thomas Tolan and Harry Fitzsimons, all from Belfast, were due for sentencing for their roles in the attempted kidnapping of the dissident republican, Bobby Tohill, in 2004.
The court issued bench warrents for four men. Two years ago the Independent Monitoring Commission suggested the assault and kidnapping were undertaken by the IRA."
OSF should be protesting Sinn Fein as they seem to be very connected to the police with such members as DONALDSON and SCAPPITTICI. and i also remember when DONALDSON was outed, that Sinn Fein admitted to the possibility that higher-ups in Sinn Fein have also been working with the British intelligence services and may yet be exposed......... never mind the current rumors and tabloid articles about mr. mcguinness!
Did an Ogra just fall of the roof?
i dont think they fell off the roof, but they are just waiting to reply with the word....dissident or securocat or anti-republican (instead of answering the issue or my opionion). and this will come from the republican party that brought us a form of ACCEPTABLE british rule!!! british secret services must be smiling knowing that they have defeated militant republicanism in Ireland thru their agents in the inner circle of sinn fein who have directly helped to create ulsterisation, normalisation, and criminalisation.
Well lads I haven't seen any1 else acting on the issue. All I see is people spending their time commenting on activists on this...talk talk
pretty lame and well expected when OSF can only shoot the messenger and not address the issue at hand. wake up OSF!
fair play to ógra, at least they're doing something worthwhile which unfortunately cant be said for their parental party! join the revoloution - join ógra sinn féin!!
