Vince Green Posted March 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 Lets not deceive ourselves, the IRA was never anything more than a Mafia that preyed on the people it claimed to be protecting. They probably killed more of their own than were killed by the British Army. I agree with Lord Tebbitt, he went into the peace process to save his own skin.

Cannon Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 The IRA were the only barrier between the hard working nationalist/republican people living in the North of Ireland and the oppressive, terrorising antics of the british/state forces. The IRA wouldn't have done what they did, in fact probably wouldn't even have existed if the british weren't so arrogant to think that they could occupy our land without reprisal. Open your eyes people. The british are the reason why the IRA existed. Any attacks were ultimately brought on by the actions of the british state. It's that simple. And you expect to oppress and terrorise the Irish and get away with it? Then the Irish fight back and WE'RE the ********? How does that work? As for the daft comment above about joining an Irish forum, I'm not the only Irishman on this forum. Are you supporting the discrimination of Irish members on this forum? Do you think all Irish PW members should leave? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does that workI'll tell you how that works, they murdered innocent women and children, anyone who does that is a terrorist, the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDog Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 It is easy to see why the problems in Ireland and Northern Ireland will never be resolved peacefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12gauge82 Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 It truly is a shame, the problem is where people have been killed (on both sides) it's hard to forget or move on, I believe it's important as to lose one more life on either side is a travesty.

Gordon R Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 It is a complicated matter, but for the life of me, I can't see why murdering civilians is the way to remove an "occupying" army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you supporting the discrimination of Irish members on this forum? Do you think all Irish PW members should leave? Personally I dont think the Irish should join an Irish forum. But people like YOU ,who are trying to justify the murder of not only your enemies children, but your own too, can leave whenever youre ready. What are you thinking man ?

12gauge82 Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 I find it truly abhorrent and almost unbelievable that people on this forum, firearm holders no less, think it okay for others to use murder and terror to achieve their objectives, I wonder if they've shared these views with their flo, somehow I doubt it.

Gordon R Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 Perhaps time to close the thread. The death of a former IRA leader was never going to end well - whichever side you take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harnser Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 I was involved with this scum bag and his subordinates for 18 months in Belfast in the early 1970 s . Not a very nice person . Trust me . Harnser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
