The news which has been disseminated about the event outside the Dominican Priory in Tallaght on Saturday is simply sad.
The photograph and story in today's Drogheda Independent is sad.
It's all sad.
But a five-minute course in anything to do with the media would never have allowed those pictures to have happened.
