奥兰治会成员表示，他们的会所在宗派袭击中已成为目标数十次，这种恐惧和恐吓损害了他们的社区，使他们无法正常庆祝自己的传统和文化。
Orangemen whose hall has been targeted dozens of times in sectarian attacks say the fear and intimidation has damaged their community and left them unable to properly celebrate their heritage and culture.
拉什金“精选少数派”奥兰治分会认为，其会所是“北爱尔兰遭袭击最多的奥兰治会所”，并称30年来已发生51起事件。
Rasharkin Chosen Few Orange lodge believes its hall is "the most-attacked Orange hall in Northern Ireland" and says there have been 51 incidents in 30 years.
警方记录显示，在过去一年里，针对北爱尔兰各地奥兰治会所和学徒男孩会所的仇恨犯罪达17起——较前两年有所增加，为五年来第二高。
Police recorded 17 hate crimes in the past year against Orange and Apprentice Boys' halls across Northern Ireland - an increase on the previous two years and the second highest in five years.
拉什金的奥兰治会成员表示，他们对警方失去了信心，特别是在监控录像显示一辆巡逻车碾过刚喷上的涂鸦之后。
Rasharkin Orangemen say they have lost confidence in police, particularly after CCTV showed a patrol car driving over freshly-painted graffiti.
分会成员利·杰罗表示，袭击形式从涂鸦到试图纵火焚烧会所不等，导致该建筑现在装有钢门且无窗户，成员不敢将车停在外面，以免车辆遭袭。他说：“有时你需要退一步，意识到这并非正常的生活方式。”
Leigh Gerrow, a member of the lodge, said attacks ranged from graffiti to attempts to set fire to the hall and meant the building now had steel doors and no windows, with members unable to park their cars outside in case they were attacked. "Sometimes you need to take a step back and realise that's not a normal way to be living," he said.
北爱尔兰警察局（PSNI）表示，已制定“强有力且全面的警务计划”，以防止拉什金发生进一步袭击，并谴责宗派主义、恐吓和仇恨犯罪。
The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) said it had a "robust and comprehensive policing plan in place" to prevent further attacks in Rasharkin and it condemned sectarianism, intimidation and hate crime.
杰罗说，针对安特里姆郡该分会的袭击“是一种煽动、恐吓、威胁，有时还旨在激起反应的企图”。
Gerrow said the attacks on the County Antrim lodge were "an attempt to incite, intimidate, threaten and at times provoke a reaction as well".
他说：“这不仅是对奥兰治会所的攻击，更是对该会所所代表的意义、所坚持的价值以及其所代表的社区的攻击。”
"It's not just an attack on an Orange hall, it's an attack on what that hall represents and what it stands for and the community that it represents," he said.
杰罗说：“这向我社区的成员传递了一个非常明确的信息：‘你们在这里不受欢迎。’”他表示，分会成员希望社会各阶层的人都能被允许在和平中表达自己的文化和传统。他补充说，分会对警方的回应感到沮丧。
"It sends a very clear message from the perpetrators to the members of my community: 'You are not wanted here.'" Gerrow said members of the lodge wanted people from all sections of society to be allowed to express their culture and traditions in peace. He added that the lodge was frustrated by the response of the police.
监控录像由该分会提供给BBC News NI，画面显示2025年7月12日——正值奥兰治教团游行季高峰期——发生的一起事件，当时蒙面人士在分会外的道路上喷绘“INLA”字样。
CCTV footage shared with BBC News NI by the lodge showed an incident on 12 July 2025 - the height of the Orange Order's marching season - when masked figures painted "INLA" on the road outside.
凌晨约01:15，这些人影消失在画面外——其中一人被看到逃跑——几秒钟后，一辆北爱警队（PSNI）巡逻车驶过涂鸦处，未作停留。片刻之后，破坏者向会所投掷油漆。
At about 01:15 the figures disappear from view - with one seen running away - seconds before a PSNI patrol vehicle drives over the graffiti without stopping. Moments later vandals threw paint at the hall.
另一段2026年6月的监控录像显示，一名蒙面人士在会所墙上喷绘宗派口号。
Other CCTV footage from June 2026 showed a masked figure spraying sectarian slogans on the hall.
Gerrow表示，这两起事件的录像已交给警方，但警方拒绝公开发布。
Gerrow said the footage of both incidents was given to police but they declined to share it publicly.
他说：“遗憾的是，令人失望的是，我认为警方处理此事非常糟糕。”
"Sadly and disappointedly, I'd say the police have handled this really badly," he said.
北爱警队称，警员在2025年7月12日“报告的刑事损毁”发生前约10分钟，正在Rasharkin地区巡逻。
The PSNI said officers were on patrol in the Rasharkin area about 10 minutes before "the reported criminal damage" to the hall on 12 July 2025.
一名发言人称，警方于01:22接到报案后，立即从Kilrea派遣警员前往，比监控录像时间戳显示巡逻车驶过会所的时间晚约7分钟。
A spokesperson said officers responded from Kilrea as soon as a report was received at 01:22, about seven minutes after the timestamp on the CCTV footage showed the patrol vehicle driving past the hall.
发言人补充说，警员已审查了2025年7月和2026年6月两起事件的监控录像，认为这些录像“不适合”用于公开征集线索。
They said no-one was present when patrols were in the area. The spokesperson added that CCTV of both the July 2025 and June 2026 incidents was examined by officers and was "unsuitable" for a public appeal.
该分会的高级官员、尊敬的会长Rodney Cubitt表示，袭击事件影响了分会的慈善筹款活动，迫使他们只能在白天举办活动以避免遭袭风险。
The lodge's senior officer, worshipful master Rodney Cubitt, said the attacks had an affect on its charity fundraising efforts, which had to be run during the day to avoid the risk of attack.
他说：“我们希望能在晚上在这里举办一些活动，但我们觉得白天举办更安全。”
"We would like to run some events here at night but we feel it's more safe to have them during the day," he said.
Cubitt表示，该分会历史悠久，可追溯至1796年，对于会员来说，在村里保持存在感非常重要。他说：“这让我们更难推广、鼓励人们前来加入我们的行列。”
Cubitt said the lodge had a long history going back to 1796 and it was important for members to keep a presence in the village. "It makes us harder to promote and to encourage people to come and join our ranks," he said.
“我们觉得，该地区绝大多数人对我们都非常包容、尊重，我们对此心存感激。”
"We feel that the vast majority in this area would have great tolerance for us and respect and we appreciate that.
“在这个村庄里，只有极少数人对我们的文化采取激进态度。”民主统一党议员谢丽尔·布朗利表示，针对会堂的袭击事件增加令人担忧，且不可接受。
"It's only a very small minority in this village that has an aggressive approach to our culture." Democratic Unionist Party MLA Cheryl Brownlee said the rise in attacks on halls was worrying and unacceptable.
“如果你无法让自己的传统和文化得到尊重，而不被投掷汽油弹、涂鸦、袭击，我们这是什么样的社会？”她问道。
"If you cannot have your traditions and your culture respected without being petrol bombed, graffitied, attacked, what sort of society do we have?" she asked.
身为橙衣女士的布朗利表示，社区需要对警方有信心，但目前这“很困难”。“北爱警方需要在一线积极行动，”她说。
Brownlee, who is an Orangewoman, said there needed to be community confidence in the police but that at the moment that was "a struggle". "The PSNI need to be active on the ground," she said.
“当社区对他们表现出信心并举报事件时，他们需要能看到警员在场，做出反应并全力调查。
"When communities are showing confidence in them and reporting [incidents], they need to be able to see the officers there, reacting and and investigating to the fullest extent.
“我们需要看到正义得到伸张。”布朗利补充说，她对关于橙衣会的言论感到担忧。
"We need to see that brought through to justice." Brownlee added she was concerned over rhetoric about the Orange Order.
“在过去几周里，我看到橙衣会成员被划掉的图片，我在贝尔法斯特看到一些可怕的东西，上面写着‘射杀你当地的橙衣会成员’，”她说。
"Over the past few weeks I've seen images of Orangemen crossed out, I have seen some horrific things in Belfast saying 'shoot your local Orangeman'," she said.
“看到这些令人绝望。”北爱警方地区指挥官、警司伊冯·麦克马努斯表示，她认识到这些事件对橙衣会会员造成的严重影响。她说，反复发生的袭击绝不能被视为一系列孤立事件。
"To see that is absolutely devastating." PSNI district commander Supt Yvonne McManus said she recognised the serious affect the incidents had on members of the Orange lodge. She said repeated attacks must not be viewed as an isolated series of incidents.
“因此，我们审视了今年针对橙衣会会堂的犯罪的更广泛模式，并采取了不同的警务方法，”麦克马努斯说。
"As such, we looked at the wider pattern of offences this year in relation to the Orange hall and adopted a different policing approach," McManus said.
她说，针对会堂的袭击影响超出了个人范围，宗派事件可能在社区内制造恐惧并破坏关系。“通常，这归因于极少数人的无意义行为，”麦克马努斯说。
She said the impact of attacks on halls went beyond individuals and that sectarian incidents could generate fear and damage relationships within a community. "Often, this is due to the senseless actions of what is actually a very small minority," McManus said.
“因此，合作、接触、尊重和相互理解是对抗两极分化叙事的关键要素。”
"Collaboration, engagement, respect and mutual understanding are therefore vital elements to countering polarising narratives."
