Sieges

So the bloke who barricaded himself into his house in Gort got shot in the end by the Gardai when he came out firing at them.

You have to think the Gardai have been very naive here. There was no need for him to come out at all. There are plenty of things they could have done to ensure a safe end to the drama.

What they should have done is put on Tracy Chapman’s ‘Fast car’, recently shown to the be the world’s most boring song in extensive research carried out in Ron’s bar, and while that was on they could have read aloud from the Sunday Tribune, Ireland’s most boring Sunday newspaper.

Now, some of you might think that this kind of behaviour would enrage the man but you’d be quite wrong indeed.

Even if your goat was got to the max because of how much you hated the song and the newspaper the combination of both would render you so bored and listless than even if you felt like going out and shooting at policemen you just would not have the required gumption as all the gumption you had would have been drained from your body.

Eventually you would have lapsed into a coma and then Gardai could have gone into the house and peacefully shot you in the face while you lay unconscious.

A much safer way for the Gardai to go around shooting people. Who the fuck is doing their training, that’s what I want to know.
