As I said if you bothered to read the paras lost control however the IRA were there and I find it hard to believe they were not involved in some facilitation Bloody Sunday was a gift to the republicans and the IRA. But you have to ask why the troops were there it was certainly not out of choice they were there to stop the two sides killing one another are the cowardly terrorists and their cowardly sympathisers absolved from blame and responsibility ?
So you are now an apologist for murdering paratroopers who were condemned by their own PM.
Bloody Sunday was a gift, could you be any more disgusting?
Those paratroopers who injured and murdered innocent civilians on Bloody Sunday should and will be prosecuted and jailed. That is how a civilised society functions.
If they were proven to break the law yes but it's not a crime to serve your country in conflict and I am proud of our brave armed forces. Bloody Sunday was a gift to the terrorists it's the first thing that's brought up by sympathisers of the IRA and the republican movement. Thankfully you don't speak for the majority of people in Northern Ireland who have common sense clearly the last election in June was a vote that got nowhere near the division you are pushing for it seems. Rather than concentrate on British troops from decades ago doing their jobs and duty it might serve you better to focus on the mass civilian murderers in the IRA INLA UVF who even today carry out punishments and murders including kneecapping young men often shooting through both ankles crippling them for life often for petty misdemeanours or settling scores. You need to move on from the fact that people settled in your community 400 years ago I also find it ironic you and others play the racisim card whenever it suits but what could be more racist than refusing to acknowledge the existence or rights of people simply because they are not descended from the right Celtic bloodline. It's crazy shaggy I just don't get it and whatever you post I never will it is just utter madness
They are guilty alright Stan, that has been confirmed by no less a man than your then PM.
I am not a member of or supporter of the IRA so trying to tar me with that brush isn't going to work. I condemn the loss of any human lives through violence.
I have never said that Protestant people should go back to where they came from, that's insane. N. Ireland is not the Wild West and the majority of the population are decent, ordinary people who get on with their lives. We are making progress but it will be along road. However the violence has ended and will never return.
But Bloody Sunday remains an open wound that will never heal until those who murdererd innocent civilians are prosecuted and jailed.
Your remarks about the value of an Irish life in comparison to an British life were shocking as where your remarks about Bloody Sunday being a gift.
No one gained anything from Bloody Sunday Stan, no one.
