Subject: Fw: Fw:eva


Eva was found one morning by a girl in her back garden in Ballinasloe, County Galway. This girl Rachel already had some rescued Greyhounds and poor Eva (as we named her) was badly injured and infected. She was brought to a Vet who said that the injuries to her ears were caused by Battery Acid or burning, as the hair around her ears was also synged. Her ears were septic , of a texture like charred fabric and one was burned right through with a gaping hole. The bluish ink from Greyhound Industry tatoos was apparent on the bits of her ear that were still hanging in tatters. Her left front leg had a large chunk of skin missing, it cannot be stitched and requires constant changing of dressings.Her ears were full of pus and she screeches if she thinks she is going to be lifted. read full story / add a comment

A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Sean Garland, the President of the Workers' Party, after he failed to appear in a Belfast court today to face possible extradition to the US.
He appeared in court on foot of an arrest warrant alleging that he had been involved in counterfeiting large quantities of $100 bills.
He was subsequently released on bail, on the condition that he resided with a friend in Co Down.
Last month his bail was varied to allow him to return home to Navan to undergo medical treatment. read full story / add a comment

On tuesday many age out minors had to sign on at the GNIB but have been told to report back thursday to finalise their deportation, so we are expecting a deportation tomorrow

Others are also due to sign on and currently people are being held at Clover Hill prison and Mount Joy women's prison, this obviously is a bad sign.

Residents Against Racism have called a demonstration for 1.30pm outside the Garda National Immigration Bureau(GNIB) to protest against the deportation.
We need all the support possible to try stop this going ahead.

Its good to see that the spirit of Christ is alive and well in the US Catholic Church. These are the same goons who are trying to avoid claims from abuse victims and are refusing the sacrements to Pro-Choice politicians.

Jesus Wept!
