12 years for ex-shinner

Mary lous pal.

Imagine if it was some other party.

We would have to hear her constant whining and whinging about it.

Hypocrites.

Why is an ex sinn fein member up until 2015 on a dissident ira wing???

Doesn't look good does it.

Nope, doesn't look good at all. Story is this organisation let them on the wing because Gerry Hutch paid them.

Sinn Fein do have to accept they had a complete blackguard in their ranks but to be fair; this notion that they as a party new about the incident that happened or protected or condoned him isn't true either.

More like money talks. They are still aligned to the Hutch group.

Only was one wife beater that I am aware in the provos even 1 is more than enough for me,
And I don't think he joined , voted or associated with sf after his release.

As for the drug dealers if if it's such a widespread epidemic you must have plenty of links to news stories for me to peruse to back up your wide speculating attempt to stir the sh1t

The provos dealing drugs#lol

It's well known that "Republicans" are up to the their necks in drugs.

Anybody who lives in inner city dublin can attest to this fact.

Every mainstream Irish political party "have a whiff of cordite about them" !
We have a political culture of split and faction !
The parties that you most likely vote for today have developed from a split within Sinn Féin during the War of Independence ..

Unfortunately one hasn't.

Dont give a donkeys about any political party.

But this is called guilt by association.

Do you have a dodgy cousin, ex-friend or neighbor?

What does that say about you ehhh. Hmmmmm. *Twitches curtain.

What does that even mean? Knew about it as a party? Does as a party mean a few people? All members?

To be honest it looks like they figured out Dowdall was upto something and thats why he left.

I'm from the inner city myself and I assume you are deliberately mixing up your republican factions..The dissidents deal drugs and make death threats/actual attempted murder/actual murder against retired Provo & sf folks who they see as sellouts

You specifically said the Provos are involved in dealing drugs so up to you to back up your claim.

Because they were lucky enough that brave men and women made the blood sacrifices for them.
The people of NI were abandoned to their fates while comfy partitionists and cowards stood idly by.

Were it not for brave men and women you'd be living in a resource depleted British backwater with only a history of subjugation to warm you.

Brave men and women who raped kids, murdered kids, kidnapped horses, kneecapped kids, smuggled diesel, shot dead a mother of 12 children, shot dead garda members, protected rapists.

I'm sorry but I just don't see anything brave at all in these acts.

Cowardly yes. Bravery no.

Yes bad things were done, mistakes made. It wasn't some glorious clean war/conflict made in Pinewood studios for consumption by the gullible.

You are probably disappointed that we were not overrun by the 'supposedly' blood lusting psychopaths the 'RA was made up of.

the only thing the provisional ira were guilty of out of your list was killing some civilians during their mainland bombing campaign, which nobody defends. all the other actions mentioned were caried out by people who called themselves the ira.

I do understand that there are several of you PIRA types on here, and as such the Provos are your brave bomb planting heroes . . . . but if you view your heroes from the perspective of the victims for just one moment, then your brave IRA bombers become nothing more than Irish Republican versions of Salmon Abedi, or the Paris bombers . . . . The victims are always blown to pieces due to a struggle which the perpetrators can't or won't convey by normal means, hence they resort to planting bombs and shooting people in order to attain their aims.

Thankfully in recent years the IRAs political wing (Sinn Fein) now condemn such bombings. Better late than never I guess, unless of course you sit beside an empty space at the table where your loved one (murdered by brave Republican heroes) used to sit

the catholic population tried to resolve the issue by peaceful means. they were beaten and shot off the streets and moed down, or burned out of their houses.

you know this all ready.

When you are ready to accept that actions have consequences get back to me on victims.

You are talking about the late 60s and all the discrimination & predjuices that were realised in Northern Ireland. The SDLP (led by John Hume & Seamus Mallon) then embarked on a peaceful mission to fight for equal rights for Catholics, which was to be admired...... sadly in the other side you had violent Irish Republicanism, who had no time for peaceful deliberation, but had all the time in the world to sustain a guerrilla/terrorist campaign for the next thirty years < This was wrong & unforgivable.

There was never any need to plant bombs or shoot people.

Oh dear.

They didn't kidnap a horse?

Or kneecap kids?

Or shoot dead Jean mconville?

Ah what's the point with you, I think you're on the windup!

And you leave out the bit were violent and belligerent. Unionism thwarted any attempt at a deal with the SDLP and that republicans were not allowed to the table.
Jaysus the delusion is strong here.

Can you not see from London this very night, that terrorism achieves nothing positive while creating nothing but death & hatred. YES the Unionist Loyalist mobs were an awful gang too, of course they were the lowest of the low, but this thread is about an ex Shinner who has been banged up for twelve years (and rightly so) for carrying on with practices that had been dropped by the PIRA many years earlier.

Terrorism doesn't work and is not to be respected or condoned.

When you are ready to accept that however sad and tragic the events in London are that they too have a cause get back to us. The common denominator is British behaviour in foreign climes is a clue.

Violence is violence, and it generally begets violence whether you want to label it with a silly word that means nothing.

Tonight of all nights, and you come out with that^

I'm speechless.
