With her merciless slaying of the Freedom of Speech Act, Bridget Phillipson has shown herself to be a far more brutal political combatant than the enfeebled Tories. If you want to win the culture war, this is how to do it.

Jump To Comment: 3 2 1John Carty, Abbeylara..........RIP. Why was he ever refused the cigarettes........he might be still alive......anxiety, as I know, makes actions totally unpredictable if you are cornered.
There two books but I can't remember the names i.e. ABI

I am so proud of you both for efforts, it would be so easy to walk away with Stigma Ireland attaches to Bipolar
Euros 100,000 (will never compenste but you are paving the way to remove stigma from Ireland - that Ireland of Saints and Scholars

This man's life was worth a 100,000 euros. Sadly the Gardai were never trained for negotiations with a very vulnerable man with bipolar disorder. If it was in the 1960's in Ireland, the Priest or the Dispensary Doctor or just a good neighbour would have walked in and said John, let us have a cup of tea and a cigarette. Sadly but truly would have saved John Carty (too young to die).
Supt. Shelley had a remarkable career from the Kerry babies case to Donegal corruption and we all know of this stands/leads.
It beggars belief, on record now, the Barr Tribunal said that Shelley was the Garda Commander in charge of that faithful day.

I have just noticed that I mispelled two critical names in my article.
That of John Carthy and that of Mr. Justice Barr......
The findings are due shortly. The Wheelock family are struggling to find an answer to their son's death in prison!!!
Let's hope the report findings tackle the problem that quite evidently exists in our Gardai service.......It is not about blame, it is about ensuring it does not continue.

Yes, the scheduel that can always act as a stop gap.
Mr. Rabbitte, Labour gave a fair good pacing.
John Carty, 27 years old, a manic depressive, the Speci Unity.
Like the Morris Report......There will be serious revelations about practices in this country......and it will include how services treat the mentally ill. As far as I am concerned we, merit neither respect, dignity, governmental funds, support sysems and proper education.pp by the people who treat it.
Well Done Mr. Rabitte about the outcome of the Barr Tribunal. I understand there must be an order of day.....but when do we stop the nonsense and inherent threats.
Surely there are issues that can be put ahead of others, oarticularly given the serious nature of mental health, John Carty, the professions, his shooting, his mother and sister.
This Report and I must say even in advance, I feel Mr. Justice Barr, will deal with in a fir and equitable way. John Carty was a young man in a period of manic depression quiet evidently alienated from society and the services lost the run of themselves.
July - to release the report is not good enough. I ask - :Is it part of the stigma attached to being mentally ill......the attitude is based on fear and the aim is sweep it under the carpet.
Let the people express their need to hear about this case.
As this is the month of James Joyce.....let us took to what he says about Mistakes. 'They are but portals of discovery'. It is not a witch hunt it is just about social justice. Also let us recall the daughter of James Joyce, Lucia, who lived her life in that awful ritual dance of menal illness,.
Don't insult the Carty family and have the Inquiry Results in July when the Dail is in recess. They have suffered enough. Let them see Justice done..
The Morris Report made definite revelations and so will the Barr Tribunal.
Rory O'Hanlon proofed to exercise his job ......control of the House but Mr. Rabbitte made a good few jives before he was brought to a halt.
