Embarrassing Not Criminal

That's a crucial difference between your songs and ours.

It will be interesting to see what happens when the first prosecution for singing pro Irish republican songs in Scotland goes to the European courts.

To sing non racist, non sectarian and non hateful songs is a non crime.

I'd have pumped the wee, skinny, dickensian urchin that day myself...

If he'd enjoyed it, so much the better...

Im sure all victims of the terrorist group you sing songs of support for will gain some comfort in the viewpoint that its only embarassing not illegal! Sad sack

"To sing non racist, non sectarian and non hateful songs is a non crime."

So is your point that the law should be changed to make chants like "Ooh ah up the RA" illegal too?

You know, I probably agree. Good point. One of the many problems with the current and proposed laws.

"help - to sing songs which mythologise freedom fighters fighing against imperial occupying colonisers is a noble part of the human condition"

How about songs that just give a verbal thumbs up to drug-running gangsters who for years refused to join the peace process, while planting bombs in shopping centres?

Not so sure that's part of the human condition, because I've never done it and I don't know anyone who has.

Incidentally, why are Celtic saying that they find a notable aspect of the human condition embarrassing?
