Super_Ally 0 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 So because the media/police in this country all have an IQ of about 7 and are unable to understand the context of something someone is singing we are to be arrested for it? Absolute fucking joke. The more I live in this ridiculous country the more pissed off of it I get and I never thought i'd say that.

Bluedell 5,513 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I've said before that I don't sing it, but I'm going to start. My mate and I are going to the Killie game where I'm sure it will be given aired. My mate doesn't go to away games generally but he's going especially to sing it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,669 Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 The Celtic Trust intends to report the racist chants of the Rangers fans in which they advised us all to 'go home' now the 'famine' is over to the organisation Show Racism the Red Card. The continued treatment of 'An Gorta M�³r' (the Great Hunger) as a matter for jokes and offensive songs is increasingly being found among Rangers fans and elsewhere. It should not be tolerated and should be condemned as racist and unacceptable. http://www.celtictrust.net/HolocaustChants.htm Lumping fuck, the song has turned into the Holocaust Chant 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct BD, I don't particularly like the song either, but I'm fucked if I am going to be brow beaten by the MOPES 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you both get arrested :fish: Seriously, I actually DO hope someone gets arrested. That way someone can set precedent in the law courts on how STUPID this whole issue is and prove, once and for all, that there is NO CRIME in singing it. It is quite simple. The song is NOT sectarian and it is NOT racist. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure that the RST have been communicating their views to SRTRC. There is a similar issue that I'm personally working on. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 745 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Im with the above lads on this. I dont like the song, and wouldnt sing it, but now this insane threats of arrests have came about id start to sing it if was at a game. And hopefully huge numbers do start to sing in protest at these arrest threats, then we can see if 100s/1000s get arrested on no charges. We'll also see where the clubs stance is. As i said before, the power is with the people. The world is going through a transistional period of becoming a big brother state and things like this are a prime example of keeping freedom / democracy when there is nothing illegal about it. If we show weakness here then we will become vunerable to almost any song that is complained about. WATP 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The song is NOT sectarian and it is NOT racist. Think you're right here. That is going to be the only way we get sanity. What does worry me though is I fear there could be real violence resulting at the next OF game purely because of the resentment that has been engendered. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Ally 0 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Could someone, preferably the club although we know that is a non-starter, so the RST or similar seek clarification on what law people are actually breaking and are being arrested before. Demand a public statement clarifying this, which would be impossible to do, and therefore show up what a sham this is? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
