One law for the rich

Holyland residents can let out a sigh of relief, as St Patricks day, passed by. Most families evacuated their children out of the Holylands in an effort to preserve the magic of St Patricks day, but those that remained again had to endure the depraved behaviour of our future professionals, middle classes and SDLP voters.

Only 1.2% of the student population is from a poor or working class background, you've only to look at the top range model cars the students of the Holylands drive, to see they're all from money backgrounds, with the bad manners and disassociated aloofness of the snooty rich.

Most of the Holylands residents settled down to enjoy St Patricks day, in the spirit of happiness, tolerance and Irish inclusion.

Celebrations were again marred by the behaviour of the spoilt student rich, who could be seen exposing themselves and urinating in the streets, as toddlers and children passed by. Female students/mutant bimbos,our future school teachers, screamed at fellas, from windows, 'rape me!, rape me!', as young children passed by, proving its not a good idea to leave your children in the care of depraved rich professionals.

Even in the poorest, most run down back streets of working class republican areas, no women would shout 'rape me!', and most working class wee lads have the common decency not to wave their cocks about at children.

As one holyland resident describe them, 'their just a bunch of hateful nasty fucks'. Which is the general concensus of Holyland residents. And its easy to see why, as it usually a crowd of about 15 drunken students fellas, bullying single mums with toddlers, pensioners and families.

At the end of the day, despite Queens universities protestations, there are few disciplinary actions taken against students, who bring the name of the university, but most importantly republicanism into disgrace. why? because our predominantly professional middle class authorities, prefer to take the side of students the majority of whom are from professional/buisness and money backgrounds against, what the authorities have dismissed as 'problem families' and holyland residents.

So within the institution of the university itself, disrespect for the poor, racial minorities and the elderly is encouraged, through monetary centred teaching practises, which encourage students to look down on others and cultivate an attitude of cold dissociation from society.

We've only to look at the callous attitude of top professionals, such the surgeon involved in the death of nurse Janine Murtagh, to see the total disregard the rich/professionals have for moral decency, and it starts within middle class households and continues through university.
