    The young lads you refer to in the above post were given a choice. They didn;t have to accept it. The young lads murdered by the IRA in Warrington didn't get a choice.

    So in one sentence to talk of the murderers and the murderd but claim they are the same?
    The young lads i talk of were given a choice - to go out and kill ... the people the young lads killed were not given a choice either

    Although a warning or warnings had been sent, the area was not evacuated in time.

    Dana is a freedom fighter? Freeing us from the evil secular agenda of the Labour party maybe!

The difference between MMG et al and Collins et al, is that the latter didn't deliberately target civilians. The young lads you refer to in the above post were given a choice. They didn;t have to accept it. The young lads murdered by the IRA in Warrington didn't get a choice. Ok? Is that clear enough for you? Can we let this be the end of it?

    You clearly didn't read my earlier post

    seriously can we just leave it as did mcGuinness leave the IRA in 74 or not? im bored to death of all this. the troubles were forced by the british government, what did people expect when the RUC were leading the civil rights marches into ambushes? it was unfortunatley a necessary evil... that continued after it was necessary (but the question is was mcG there then!!!)
    some accept that Sinn Fein are now democrats because the say so. Some of us older folk have this cynical view that you shouldn't just accept as gospel what a politician tells you.
    when should we ever believe a politician as right? but when is it time to move on? i did not live though the worst of the troubles but i remember passing through the checkpoints seeing the dozen soldiers with machine guns, snipers in their towers. times have changed, fianna fail & fine gael moved away from fighting in the past, do we give sinn fein a chance to do the same?
    i heard a rumour saying pearse doherty was to be given the sf leadership because he doesnt carry any baggage (quickly denied by him) so are they trying to move away?

    if you did,you know i don't support any party ,only independents
    as far as agenda goes,glad you brought it up
    we all know sinn fein has a agenda and we can guess what it is
    also funny that the sinn fein party and supporters always on boards when election are on,,,,but not when budgets for Ireland are coming.
    How did marty mcguinness meeting go,where you there by any chance.

    I'm wondering why Martin McGuinness is being witch hunted by the media over his I.R.A past (and it is the PAST) ... He as we all know is now totally for peace.
    Eamon de Valera was leader of the 1916 rising and The big fella Michael Collins was his right hand man who carried out lots of murders and got the Brits out, Dev became president and Michael Collins had a barracks named after him after his untimely death ...Not to mention the seven towers in Ballymun named after those executed in Kilmainham / Pearse St. Etc. Etc. If you could have voted for The big fella Michael Collins in 1940 for president (had he not died) I'm sure he would have got 100% of the vote ... Martin McGuinness a modern day hero in my opinion is exactly the same as Dev and The big fella but of our time.

    You seem to somehow forget that the Big Fella died as a result of de Valera's actions. :pac:

    As for places being synonymous with names people - although I don't know of anywhere named after McGuinness; Enniskillen, Kingmill, et al are synonymous with their attached massacres with help from Martin.

    I didn't forget? ... (untimely death)

    AFAIK places are not named after people when there alive i.e.
    Jack Lynch tunnel
    De Valera place
    Sam Maguire cup
    O' Connell St.

    Other synonymus massacres - Bloody sunday ,Dublin + Monaghan bomings,

    Massive bomb placed in shopping area
    > human rights for Catholics.

    Explain to me what goes in between the two. How did destruction, murder, mayhem, further the cause of Catholic parity of rights and opportunities in the North?
    Why didn't Republicans get involved in Sunningdale?


    In the initial phase of the Troubles...



    What has any of this got to do with human rights?
    Absolutely nothing. The PIRA was an armed group designed to get a United Ireland by force. Was not a defender of the Catholic population.

    we are soon to vote in a general election and Sinn Fein are trying to stir up a voting frenzy for their wee Martin Mad Dog McGuinness but i think they are going about it all wrong!

    Instead of bring up all the old dead martyrs and freedom fighters and hunger strikers murderrers and gunmen etc they should be talking about getting martin out kissing babies and showing that he is capable of real change by going to the police and giving as much detail of where bodies are buried as he can remember.

    It's was a mistake for sf to use mcguinness as candidate with his terrorist activities and not telling the truth but then
    again maybe it was about getting better position in next election for them.
    they law to be changed in regarding election in Ireland that no candidate can run in elections with terrorist or criminal background as politicians are dodgy enough as is

    Mad dog???
    I don't recall seeing them bringing up freedom fighters or hunger strikers and i dont think kissing babies is going to showcase any competence as president there are more serious issues, i guess it still impresses some people.
