Protest to demonstrate the resiliance of the gay community against attacks from thugs on the streets of Dublin and around the country

A protest will be held on Monday 3rd October in light of an violent attack on the Gay Community last Saturday night, which left one man in hospital and two others with broken noses.

This protest will be focusing the resiliance of the Gay Community against these attacks and to show the public the lack of effective policing in these busy areas of Dublin City Centre.

This is not a "gay march" this is march for everyone to come along to show their support for Justice and better Policing to prevent further attacks on the innocent people of this Island.

You could have a guard on every street corner crime will still happen.

And assault on a person is equal. Sexual orientation should not enter into the justice system.

You're missing the point 'Joe Public'. People are being attacked and beaten up because they're gay so their sexual orientation is obviously relevant.
