Don’t piss off the Irish

Photo from this article. This is why they’ve been jailing people for mean tweets. When the dam breaks, it’s going to be epic.
I think. I’ve been wrong before. Sadly, numerous times. I thought the fuel protests of 2000 were the start of something big. I thought the coordinated bombings in London on the 7th of July, 2005 would do it (there was some awful cellphone imagery early on, before it was quashed). I thought no society could absorb the savagery of the Lee Rigby murder. Surely, surely the Southport stabbings would be enough (that’s the one Lucy Connolly went to jail for tweeting about).
Wikipedia has lightly sanitized all those stories (by not posting Rudakubana’s mugshot, for example).
But I think this might be different. Why? The Irish, man.
