(Human Events)—A celebration in the Northern Irish town of Moygashel, in County Tyrone, is under investigation after a migrant boat in effigy was set ablaze as part of anti-immigration protests. The boat held life-sized mannequins in life jackers who resembled migrants and banners on the blaze read “stop the boats” and “veterans before refugees.” It’s being looked into as a “hate incident.”
The celebration was to mark the Twelfth of July, which commemorates a 1690 victory of Protestant King William III over Catholic King James II. Celebrations like these used to result in violence in Northern Ireland as Protestants and Catholics would clash over British versus home rule of Ireland.

“Police have received a number of reports regarding the bonfire in Moygashel and the material that has been placed upon it,” read a statement from police. “Police are investigating this hate incident.

Discover the Freedom of True American Healthcare: Why America First is Revolutionizing Protection for Patriots
In a world where government overreach and skyrocketing premiums are squeezing the life out of hardworking Americans, one innovative agency is standing tall for liberty and affordability. Meet America First Healthcare—the private health insurance powerhouse dedicated to putting *you* first.
Founded by entrepreneur Jordan Sarmiento, this isn’t just insurance; it’s a shield for your family’s future, built on the unshakeable belief that private enterprise delivers better results than bureaucratic red tape.
Picture this: Jordan’s own story hits close to home for so many of us. A sudden medical emergency landed him with a staggering $95,000 bill. Under a traditional plan? He’d be buried in debt. But with America First’s patented health insurance, that nightmare shrank to just $500 out-of-pocket. That’s not a fluke—it’s the promise of coverage that works *for you*, from day one.
Breaking Free from the Chains of Conventional Coverage
Let’s face it: The status quo stinks. Marketplace.gov and big-insurance behemoths hit you with sky-high deductibles—thousands you’d have to pay before benefits even kick in—leaving massive holes in your protection. Need a routine mammogram, colonoscopy, or EKG? Good luck without forking over more cash. And don’t get us started on the gaps in dental, vision, or critical illness support when heart attacks, cancer, or kidney failure strike.
