    :D You said "most were deliberate", and gave ONE example ?

    Might I at this stage refer any objective readers back to when K-9 said that targetting Gardai was "common" - just "common", mind, as in "fairly frequent", which isn't even remotely close to claiming "most" - and posted a list of dead Gardai.....he didn't even get away with having 6 valid examples.

    So TOMASJ, you're DEFINTELY not getting away with just the one. :rolleyes:

    I'll ask the question again....you said

    LOL, That was just seizing on an obvious mistake to deflect an unanswerable point. Basically shooting an armed Garda on one occasion deflects the substantive point that unarmed, uniformed Gardai were murdered.

    I don't think anybody defended it in fairness, just ignored the point.

    Two words in capitals for emphasis and you're posting that as a contribution to the discussion ? What's this - Liveline ? :rolleyes:

    I think it was a splinter force.

    Think it was the Force of Armagh City Council .

    It's late, so I'm going to take you at your word that they were deliberate.
    But rather than simply asking you to keep going til you get to 6 and beyond, can I ask this :

    How many killings in total were there ?
    How many of those do you know for a fact were deliberate (no assumptions, no guesswork, no "gut feelings", since I'm not allowed those for McCabe's "manslaughter")

    Only by providing those 2 figures can you support your statement that most were deliberate

    BTW, I'm not actually sure what this has to do with Sinn Fein being photographed with criminals, or how it relates to Sinn Fein......like I said, we could probably make thousands of pages of examples for loads of different terrorists and scum and Bush, but they'd all be off-topic.

    Ask Liam post *272 he asked for incidents where the UDR killed innocent people.

    How innocent?

    I mean on another thread, Gd. McCabe wasn't that innocent.

    Maybe not - even TOMASJ didn't say "UDR", he said "UDR guys", which means they were members but not necessarily acting under orders from the UDR.....

    Maybe it was just like the IRA guys that shot Det McCabe..... :rolleyes:

    I just read pages 1-3 of this thread, and skipped to page 19.. seriously? is this really about Sinn Fein getting in on the gov? is this forum modded? i am probably wrong as usual though :confused:

    Please refrain from misquoting. I asked you for proof that most were deliberate

    I didn't ask for a list of those killed, since (if we apply IRA standards and equivalents) loads of those may not have been deliberate.

    I asked you for proof to back up your claim that most were deliberate.

    Given that you've changed my request without my knowledge, I now have to revoke my assumption that the ones that you posted already were actually deliberate and go check them.....I had (as I said) accepted those in good faith, but if you were only listing "incidents where the UDR killed innocent people", and not "incidents where the UDR deliberately killed innocent people", even the 4 listed so far are irrelevant to my question.

    Now thats the 64 million question since even the relatives of most people killed by the brits cant even get a date for an inquest,
    you are asking me to answer a question, that the british establishment would go to any length conceal.

    Indeed, substitute, IRA for British and I think you may actually get an agreement on this thread!

    Ill fix that for you
    This was a UDR unit on patrol that day, they left their land rover shot Aidan Carol, got back into their land rover and drove off.

    What are you waffling about now ? What's "very convenient" ?

    I merely pointed out to you what I had originally asked for - the remotest chance of you backing up your claim that most were deliberate

    Convenience doesn't come into it. In order to have come to that conclusion, you must already have proof....otherwise your original post where you claimed that is pure conjecture, opinion and/or fiction - something you have repeatedly criticised other posters for posting as fact.

    So back up your statement so that we can go back to discussing the merits of Sinn Fein and whether they should be in government given their stance on certain matters, or else please start a new thread - this one's far enough off topic as it is, without some abstract "very convenient" rubbish...... :rolleyes:

    Cant at this moment get you a photograph, I can provide you with a name of a RUC man who murdered innnocent people and a buddy of the DUPs Peter Robinson and was written to in prison by Ian Paisley and invited to join the DUP on release from prison,
    Now you going to have to do some work yourself, Google Billy McCaughy RUC, UVF, killer

    But did they just see him, recognise him, and decide to shoot him then and there, or were they actually under orders ?

    Actually, scratch that - I don't expect you to spot the parallels between that and how you view IRA - sorry, non-IRA - operations.

    And it'd be even further off topic......2 pages ago, you were asked to back up a claim that you made; that should have been a single reply from you, and we'd have been back on topic.

    As it is we're WAYYYYYYY off-topic, so don't bother with the above.....

    Thank you. That's that aspect sorted, and rest assured I'll suss that out and - like I said - would immediately disrespect and have no time for supposed representatives who choose to pose with killers

    Unfortunately, I can't show my displeasure by not voting for the above, because they're not running for election here, but I will treat the above the same way as I would treat Sinn Fein.

    And I trust that you will do likewise, and have the same view of both, since they have both posed with killers.
