    So you're saying these young people won't know or remember the kneecapping, bullet in the back of the head, etc. side of sinn fein..

    Tell me what makes these young people so different from all the young people over the years that can't vote for FG or FF because of what happened 70, 80 and now 90 years ago because its what their parents tell them.

    Any way what really is the potential size of sinn fein? 20% i'd say, also i'd guess that's the amount of people who live in council houses....:)

    I am not a member of SF but I did vote for them this time.
    I got fed up of reading about sick people and special needs children being punished for the sins of politicians, developers, bankers etc.

    I also own my own house and have never lived in a council house (not that I see anything wrong with that). We needed change and someone to fight our case in Europe instead of bending over for them all the time.

    I found your post very arrogant and typical of FG.

    Anecdotal heart string tugging garbage.

    These same parents would have been pushing them out the door in 2006 telling them to "go off and see the world". Young people like to travel.

    As much as I'm loathe to admit it, FG policies are working. Sure they're not easy, and not as appealing to the entitlement class as SFs free money for everyone manifesto, but they are stabilising the economy and creating jobs.

    Any more FG propaganda videos von Goebels?

    More arrogance.
    BUT it is probably the only answer you have and one that Noonan used in the past too. Sad really.

    As well as being utter hogwash, why would parents need to push their kids to leave the country if they want to anyway?
    Couldn't even go two lines without contradicting yourself.

    What are you ****eing on about "arrogance" for?

    You are literally just parroting stuff you heard down the pub at this stage.

    I work for myself (bloody hard too) and own my own home.

    I have never been unemployed a day in my life, and I've worked for everything I own.

    I've been a SF voter all my life, so I probably don't fit your elitist social stigma.

    Carryon though, it's exactly this kind of condescending attitude that has halved FG support from getting into power.

    As you were. ;)

    I have a question.
    Would you prefer if Sinn Fein had not gone the peace route?

    I for one think it's great that they did and that people north and south can go about their daily business in peace.

    Anyone hear Chris McDonalds interview with M L McDonald on Newstalk earlier? Seems some questions make her feel uncomfortable

    Enniskillen or Omagh ring a bell?

    They most certainly do.
    If you had read my previous comments on this I said BOTH sides committed atrocities but for people the say that their actions were unjustifiable, well that's just plain stupid.
    NO section of society takes up arms against an army, and by extension a government and country, that in every way shape and form outnumbers, out arms and out weighs them unless their is SERIOUS justification to do so.

    Of course not I dont think Id have had the stomach for killing personally. Im glad there were enough fearless PIRA to do the hard necessary evils on my behalf that was the only solution back then

    caught between a rock and a hard place as you well know-

    Oh yes, those people really did need extra holes in their heads, and all those people really did need those limbs removed (courtesy of IRA bombs), while other victims really did need to be murdered by the PIRA and then disappeared somewhere in the ground for 30+ years.

    You said in your previous post . . . "we" needed to keep up with the loyalist/uvf death squads...

    Hence my deduction that you were in the IRA, but yet you say you were not :confused:

    What absolute bull****. "young people like to travel"? Yeah right. Nothing to do with with their been no jobs eh? Ever consider being a pr man for labour or fine gael? Think you would be the perfect choice.

    I for one think it's great that they did and that people north and south can go about their daily business in peace.

    I'm glad they went the peace route, but I have a lot more respect for the SDLP. The SDLP were by far and away the most popular nationalist party throughout the troubles. An indication that the people of the North rejected violence. Not this rewritten history that the shinbots spout about the RA having popular support.

    David Hume is a peacemaker and a man worthy of praise. Gerry Adams is a man who has lots of innocent blood on his hands and should be rotting in a jail cell.

    Anyway....I digress. My problem with SF in the south and the reason I don't vote for them is mainly their loony economic policies and populist nonsense.

    You ever considered being a PR man for SF, PBP or the AAA.

    Your posts contain the same fact-free heart string tugging nonsense they trot out.

    I'd be deflecting if I knew what the jesus she was being asked, and not asking you what the questions were......

    A Jew and a Nazi in one evening! Wouldn't worry about it, Aongus. Pretty typical of the schitzo Sinn Fein/Provo rhetoric.

    Can you clarify who you are talking about when you say "those people"?
    Thanks

    No I personally didn't hear it, so for the benefit of myself and others who obviously didn't hear it, please enlighten Us?
