Seening reports that the ongoing anti-migrant violence in Northern Ireland is in loyalist areas.

A horrric knife attack by ONE PERSON ONLY who happened to be a migrant triggered a pogrom that has included mobs burning Sudanese migrants out of their homes. The original knife attack was stopped by a crowd counterattacking the knife wielder. That counterattack may have saved the victim's life, but was as far as anyone had the right to go. That lone attacker was the only one responsible for his crime, and nobody had a right to target anyone else over this crime.

Last year's target was Roma residents, again at the hands of loyalists. Loyalist/orange militias of course denied all involvement. Again there was a trigger excuse, that time around it was two Roma teens being accused of attempted rape.

Both sets of riots occurred during the Unionist/Loyalist marching season
