FOREIGN. The Irish who took part in riots after an immigrant stabbed three children should be "shot in the head" or beaten to death by a mob. A leading immigrant politician in Limerick believes so.

Violent protests erupted last week in the Irish capital Dublin after five people were injured in a knife attack at a school. Three of the injured were 5- and 6-year-old children, and the suspected perpetrator is an immigrant from Algeria.
The Dublin riots were discussed and condemned in strong terms at a Limerick council meeting earlier this week, reports Limerick Post.
- Not even an animal does this kind of thing, said Azad Talukder from the liberal conservative government party Fianna Fáil during the meeting.
Talukder, a Muslim immigrant from Bangladesh, was referring not to the Algerian knifeman who tried to kill the children but to the Irish who protested the incident.
He further suggested that these people should be "punished in public".
- I would like them to be shot in the head, or handed over to the public and beaten to death, Talukder added.
The Labor Party's Conor Sheehan thought this was quite strong and asked the immigration politician to retract his statement as "you can't ask for people to be shot in the council chamber".
Azad Talukder agreed.
- Okay, I can take it back. "I'm just expressing my feelings," he said, according to the Limerick Post.
