Whose Cops?



Uploaded by: ShelltoHell
Video Description:
County Mayo, Ireland.
Despite the best efforts of a large force of police officers from the Garda Siochána, a truck carrying construction materials is seen here being prevented from entering the site where Shell are trying to build a huge polluting gas refinery on the west coast of Ireland against the wishes of the people. The scheme involves a high pressure pipeline snaking across a marshy landscape, in an area prone to landslides and forest fires.
Shell are trying to construct the pipeline/refinery before they have planning permission or a licence to operate them, and recent polls show the majority of people in Ireland believe that they should refine the gas offshore, they way it is done all around the world.
Nevertheless the Irish government, plagued by allegations of corruption, continues to support Shell. Their partners in the project include US company Marathon Oil, and the Norwegian State Company STATOIL. Ironically, a scheme like this would not be allowed in Norway.
The Irish government, who won't gain a penny for the country from the deal they negotiated with Shell, continue to send in police from Rosscommon, Galway, Sligo, Leitrim, Donegal and other parts of Ireland as well as Mayo, to try to help Shell get the refinery built.
Ministers from the Green Party have betrayed their voters by supporting Shell, even though they said they were against the project before the recent elections.
NOTE: Shell claimed the truck in this video was not trying to get to the construction site but was simply passing by. However, after years of lies, no one in Ireland believes the nonsense they come up with anymore.

It's the subject of legal proceedings at the moment, but IT SEEMS that the Gardaí, having told other traffic that the road was closed, then directed a lorry full of hardcore through the demonstration. When people blocked one side of the road by sitting on it, the police directed the driver to move to the other side, without checking whether the way was clear, and so a protester at the rear of the lorry was run over by the back wheel.

It is sad to see this in Mayo. It is very sad when good decent people are reduced to this. With all fairness I have not seen both sides of the argument. But two view it even in a most unbiased way as I can why would 5 very decent, law abiding men spend 94 days in prison voluntarily if they felt there was no other option.I do share solidarity with these people, as so often when you find the courts wont look at something objectively what can you expect people to do.

Next thng you'll be blaming the us soldiers for going to iraq. If the cops are told to do something they have to do it. I dont agree with Shell oil but the court ruled against the protestors or ruled that it could go ahead. The protest was illegal and as such the police are entitled to use reasonable force. Its shite but thats the way it is

no no no no only if your a fucking robot with no wisdom or common sense do you do whatever you are told .. and just because there being told to do it it doesn't justify it either .. if there told to beat people up and kill people do you think they should still just do what they are told ?? police are just like computers matter fact we all are but theye have been programmed to be a bunch of horrassoholic wankers
