UCC to host another Nazi - Protest on Thursday

HOUSTON (Reuters) - A Texas woman was sentenced to 10 years in jail for running over the manager of a McDonald's with her car because she wanted mayonnaise on her cheeseburger.

Waynetta Nolan, 37, showed no emotion Thursday as the sentence was read in court following a trial in which the McDonald's manager, Sherry Jenkins, said she gave Nolan the mayonnaise she requested, but she flew into a rage anyway.

"I gave her everything she asked for -- mayonnaise, no mustard, onions, everything I could possibly do for this lady. Mayo, mayo, mayo, and it's still not good enough," Jenkins told reporters outside the courtroom.

Nolan, who was convicted of aggravated assault for the April 23 incident, became so angry when a McDonald's employee told her she could not get mayonnaise that she threw her cheeseburger into the drive-through the window, witnesses said.

Jenkins tried to placate her by offering a cheeseburger with mayonnaise, but Nolan continued to make demands until Jenkins finally called police.

When she went outside to write down Nolan's license plate number, Nolan ran her over, breaking her pelvis.

Nolan testified that she was putting ketchup on her cheeseburger when she accidentally struck Jenkins.

whats REALLY DISCREDITING???The protests by the swp/sp/sf/ira/iplo/cie on irvings cork visit were a shot in the arm for him before the libel case. The socialists become what they detest and Irving looks like a paragon of rational discourse.

It might be worth ye're while to read the judgement delivered against Irving in the infamous libel case. It acknowldged that Irving was a good historian and had carried out, on other occassions, strong works of hisotry. Irving was however a 'holocaust denier' and therfore the allegation was not a libel but the truth.

Didn't really discredit him though.

Fully agree with Fintan, Barry and Adolf. The only pity is that there isn't an Irish National Party holding meetings around the country on a regular basis to give us more opportunities to tamper with dangerous bacteria and expose its nature. Sure, they might get a councillor or two elected every now and again but that would be a small price to pay for the chance to show people how righteously indignant we are about them.

Please stop talking unadulterated horse shite. What is this
"we stopped David Irving a couple of years ago and we will do so again."?

"You" did not stop anyone, in fact the SWP attempted to prevent activists from other groups from entering the building to stop the Irving meeting. When they did so anyway the SWP stood outside with lollipops and refused to take any part in the direct action. The next morning the usual suspects were all over the media claiming 'their' victory.

Revising history is an entertaining little diversion, so you can appear big and brave to new members. It does not wash with anyone who was there.

If anyone wants to check the facts as outlined above they can contact AFA, or the Socialist Party, or SInn Féin in Cork - all of whom participated in actually stopping the Irving meeting.

I am sick of defering to the swp on who can and cannot speak in Cork. Why not round up those you dislike and put them in camps. U ARE THE NAZIS

The UCC Law Society meeting for Thursday night has been cancelled or so it seems. Extensive enquiries have been made into whether this meeting is going ahead. There is no need to give chapter and verse of the saga but the Auditor of the UCC Law Society, and a representative of the university have given a catagorical statement to the Irish Examiner that the meeting has been cancelled. A journalist from the Irish Examiner has also spoken to BNP youth organiser Tony Wentworth who as of 3.30pm today hadn't received his plane ticket from the Law Society! The UCC Law Society also told the Examiner that the meeting will instead be held in January. An article will appear in Thursday's Examiner (tomorrow) stating that the meeting has been cancelled. All indications are that this meeting is not going ahead.
The Socialist Party is proposing that a broad based "Stop the BNP Campaign" would be established in order to begin the preparation to stop Tony Wentworth from speaking in UCC in January. Various parties, groups, student societies and individuals will be contacted in the next few days with the proposal to establish this campaign in UCC and Cork City and to have a public meeting to launch it next week.

Your right barry. You dont need to deny the holocaust or get the right tatoos to be a facist.
Violence and supression of freedoms are all that is required.
GOOD JOP SWP

what gives the swp the right to decide who the law soc can and cannot invite.
The food science faculty tamper with dangerous bacteria all day long in order to investigate and expose its nature. Surely exposing the views of the BNP for what they are would be a gretaer victory than using the SWP brown shirts in an act of supression?

You seem completely oblivious to what you actually represent. FACISM.

Nice one John. We are hearing conflicting stories about this one such as the talk is cancelled because they insist on bringing their own security. However BNP office in London have apparently confirmed today that he is coming. The essential agrument to make to sceptical students here is that we are not primarily against free speech(although it is not a right that fascists respect) but that nazis should not be afforded the respectability that Speaking in UCC would provide. we stopped David Irving a couple of years ago and we will do so again.
