They've been in the news a lot recently to the extent that flegs have taken second place. It seems the hoods are using them to re-establish domination over the community.

There's actually a website which shows where they all are and what's on them. http://www.belfast-murals.co.uk/ I thought they'd all been changed to community ones except for a few which have been recently repainted.

I'm glad I don't live in an area where there are any. I'd hate to have to see something like that every day.

God how I hate tribalism. :cool:

    I don't like murals, and I am also glad that I don't live near any.

    I don't mind tasteful and well done ones, certainly better than looking at the side of an end terrace house. Obviously would prefer that they did not glorify paramilitaries.
  • Murals = bad as graffiti IMHO
    NO MORE HANDWASH GLITCHES PLEASE :D:D

    Something I've seen on TV recently suggests otherwise. They're flexing their muscles in the drugs trade and trying to dominate communities.
