Unfinished Business

“IRA”, “God bless Óglach Vinnie Ryan”, “1916 – 2016 IRA Unfinished business”, “#JFTC2/Brits out”, “Kill all PSNI officers now!!”.

Vincent “Vinnie” Ryan, brother of Alan Ryan, was shot in Finglas, Dublin, on February 29th. In the graffiti above he is given the title “óglach” but his family denied that he was in the (Real) IRA (BBC). In 2019, two people were convicted for their roles in Ryan’s killing (Irish Times).

End The Torture

“End the torture in Maghaberry now!! Join IRPWA http://www.irpwa.com [irpwa.irish]” and “End internment and Britain’s torture of Irish POWs”.

Similar sentiments from the IRPWA/New IRA in Lecky Road (replacing Taobh An Bhogaıgh) and the RNU/ÓNH in Westland Street (which was previously on the rear of Free Derry Corner).

To Protect And Serve

“To protect partition! And to serve capitalism!” The Royal Ulster Constabulary, Police Service of ‘Northern Ireland’, and An Garda Síochána are branded as agents of the status quo, enforcing the partition of Ireland and the capitalist system. “Know your enemy – reject political policing”.
