I don't know how things are in Ireland, but I know how this would play out in the States.
Somehow, you would become homegrown terrorists. After all, people who would actually defy "legitimate authority" (as if a mining company could "own" an identifiable historical site and regulate access) are "religious fanatics" (and probably homophobes and h0Ɩ0cαųst deniers as well, the only crimes in this country besides speeding and asserting one's constitutional rights) and need "psychological treatment" (understand: forced indoctrination) and as such, constitute a "danger to society" (read: They might actually wake some of the sheeple up.). Of course, if enough people show up and you keep the video cameras rolling (People have found out that when you film the cops doing illegal things and post it Youtube even the sheeple get outraged, and juries tend to ignore all the bovine excrement the judge hurls at them, even when they're stacked by the prosecution. And as a result the "terrorists" go free.) they will lock themselves in a holding position, go into intimidation mode, and wait for somebody to so much as drop a wrapper on the ground [littering is a crime if they can prove it- heck, I've heard of apartment complexes getting genetic markers are all the tenants dogs so they can interdict the perpetrators of poopy piles. (Really, it would be cheaper to hire somebody to police the grounds and clean up the messes, but we're talking about taking the surveillance state to levels that would have made Stalin giddy with ecstasy.)] then, look out below!
But, really, more power to ya! :cheers:
I really don't know where the Ancient Order of Hiberians occupy the political spectrum, but anybody willing to say the rosary in defiance of political correctness gets my vote. Even JFK had his moments.
