Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Republicans doing a 24 hour fast.
They are not what they used to be!
Well, congratulations on dredging up that truly insightful remark - must have taken much out of you! Either you mustered that up flippantly or you weren’t able to glean from the very straightforward post that this isn't republican prisoners hunger strike, but instead one held by Na Fianna Éireann to benefit Cabhair. I for one support Na Fianna Éireann 100% in their efforts! Great job!
This is a 24-hour FAST, not a hunger strike (which is a somewhat more serious undertaking). Truth be told, and with the 1981 hunger strikes in mind, I think it's in bad taste to use this as a fund-raising gimmick.
Call it a 'fast' and you'll offend less people.
