Subject: [Celtic Party] Dangerous mindset


"This mindset about it being okay for some people to break the law is one which we in the Republic of Ireland DESPERATELY need to fully decommission as soon as possible (in my view): not encourage, distract from, or support in any way."
 
========================
 
Dangerous mindset
by W. Finnerty. Tue Dec 04, 2007 10:08 
 
From "Monday December 03, 2007 22:53" above:
 
"These are the same gardai (Republic of Ireland police) that are daily refusing to comply with the Criminal Justice (UN Convention Against Torture Act) 2002, by failing to investigate and prevent complicity in the crime of torture at Shannon airport."
 
Are they breaking the law by doing so?
 
If so, why are they not being hauled before our courts of law?
 
We (the Republic of Ireland) have our own CRIMINAL JUSTICE (UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION AGAINST TORTURE) ACT, 2000 (please see http://www.irishstatutebook. ie/2000/en/ act/pub/0011/index.html ). 
 
The legal situation regarding the "acquiescence of a public official" seems very clear (to me), and it is set out in Article 1.1 of the above mentioned Act.
 
Though I continue to value your reports (very much), it concerns me that they may well be taken to mean (by many) that it is somehow OKAY for SOME people (our POLICE in this case) to break the law with impunity.
 
This mindset about it being okay for some people to break the law is one which we in the Republic of Ireland DESPERATELY need to fully decommission as soon as possible (in my view): not encourage, distract from, or support in any way.
 
Best wishes with your efforts nonetheless.
