Where are the riots when white Irish men attack?

Riotous reaction to Citywest allegations were rooted in racism. If your reaction to that is denial — ask yourself where the rioters were after Alanna Quinn Idris was attacked?

On Monday, October 20, it was alleged that a 10-year-old girl was sexually assaulted by a man in Citywest. Keyboard warriors went to work and organised a protest to be held, at 7pm on Monday in that part of Dublin. 

By Tuesday, that reaction had turned riotous. It is reported that more than 2,000 people assembled outside the Citywest hotel, which houses refugees and asylum seekers. The mob threw bottles, stones, and fireworks, resulting in the hospitalisation of three gardaí.
