The verdict Drumcree

The question should be  why is it nationalists  only want to abide by the laws that suit?

The initial highly contentious ruling by the parades commission 28 years ago was challenged and found to be unlawful, it wasn't signed off as per the rules and the law.

Protestant Unionist lolayalist community have made plenty  concessions.
35 mostly elderly men  walking along the road. No band no supporters just 35 elderly men.
Quick to appeal to the courts, even quicker to ignore the ruling, so ye are.

As I said previously I would have let march go ahead shut windows, doors, black flags everywhere and ignored them but I don’t live there, so residents do and obviously have strong feelings and tragic memories.
The question will always remain, why are they want to march in a road were they have no support?
You would not have a republican march up the shank hill road, does anybody believe that’s a good idea ?

I think many within the order, believe they have played a bad hand here and could have ramifications for the organisation in other localities in the future.

I dunno much about it, am I right in thinking the march is a symbolic event designed to recall the times of masters and serfs and the descendants of the masters specifically want to antagonise the descendants of the serfs over times long gone, by parading their previous upper hand status offensively through the villages of their serfs?

I’m not in the OO so i would not really know what it is about or why they march about streets were the locals don’t appreciate their presence.
I do know people who go and watch it, who are nice people, I have a drink with them talk about football, horses, greyhound racing but I’ve never discussed OO with them.

Common sense prevails the parade can’t go ahead, it’s not a time for celebration or get it up you, it’s the best solution to a difficult problem which should not have developed only due to incompetence.
