The arrest of Conor McGregor on charges of assault in New York City has come as a huge shock, with many fans wondering how this could have ever happened.

“You think you know someone.”

Also known as the ‘Irish Gandhi’ for bringing about the Peace Process, McGregor epitomized the power of non-violence and respectful dialog to make the world a better place.

“For centuries Ireland has been known as the land of saints and scholars and Conor had much to do with building that legacy, until today.”

Taoiseach (Prime Minister) Leo Varadkar appealed for other nations not to regard McGregor’s actions as representative.

“If this gets out of hand, the Irish may lose their hard-earned reputation as a sober bromidic people who never cause any trouble.”
