It wasn’t that long ago that you were all for masked men, fire bombing and violence perpetrated on innocents, including children. I don’t think anyone on or off the streets of Belfast will be taking any lectures from “IRA family”
Groups of masked men burning families out of their homes is nothing less than disgusting cowardice.
This has nothing to do with community.
This is outright thuggery.
The attack in North Belfast was heinous and wrong.
But there are dangerous attempts to exploit that to target and attack innocent people who are simply trying to live, work and raise their families here.
Racism, intimidation and violence are wrong wherever they occur.
There can be no excuse and no justification for these attacks tonight.
No one wants to see this on our streets and I again appeal for calm.
