    Bet I'm not the only one who skipped past this post.

    Afraid to read the facts and figures? Why the ostrich-like behaviour?

    What right minded person would associate themselves now with either or both Adams or Sinn Fein.


    Indeed.

    I kinda feel sorry for the Shinnerbots in some ways.

    I mean, you've only one shot at life, and they've chosen to go down the 'I'm a complete and utter tosspot' route.

    Not afraid.

    Just not bothered in with your opinion.



    Imagine that.

    Yes it certainly looks like his time is up. Furthermore it is also time up for SF the party he surrounded himself with!


    What right minded person would associate themselves now with either or both Adams or Sinn Fein.


    Their days are indeed numbered !

    del. I admire you're optimism & hopefulness but this is Ireland.

    Gerry has a way out already.

    Plenty of people will vote SF & that's a fact.

    Just like plenty of people voted for Charlie & Bertie.

    People here just love to follow false Messiah's.

    You would have to wonder, wouldn't you? :D
    I'm sure Enda does the same.

    but it's so perfect for describing the groupthink mentality of the murder apologists.

    I say we allow it.

    Using the word "groupthink" while constantly regurgitating a term like "shinnerbot" is deeply hilarious.

    The people who vote for SF and those who will vote for them have already dealt with the past, all of the past, not just the bits that the hysterical get off on.

    Human beings, and the fact you seem to think morality is mythical sheds a lot of light on your thinking.

    Where did I say morality was 'mythical'? I could have sworn I said the 'mythical high moral ground'.
    Must be past your bedtime.

    Mythical because it doesn't exist in Northern Ireland.

    The sooner the myth is done away with, the sooner the North can begin to be at peace with itself.

    You did, implying the moral highground is mythical.

    I can understand how a person who views morality (or the moral highground if you prefer) as mythical would be so quick to excuse murder.

    Northern Ireland will move on when all of the present generation is dead and frankly not before.

    I know of nowhere on this planet that life is actually lived that way. I expect there will be unicorns if I ever find one.

    Dealt with the past?

    They don't know about the past.

    Most young people who fall in with them are deluded TBH.

    From having read your posts, I would have to agree.

    Northern Ireland has moved on, better wake up and smell the roses.
    SF sharing power and growing, while down here their star is on the rise. It's the partitionists and the hysterical that are on the wane.

    Well here's a clue, people who haven't killed anyone have a moral highground over people who have killed people and people who condone murder.

    Strategic politics is in motion. All of this carry-on about what Jerry is supposedly accused of is affecting our intelligence away from water-charges and the hidden from public comings of new taxes. This is most definitely a strategic method in line with local election timing. It stinks of it.

    Jerry will be held for a period of time, to allow the public to digest/brainwash themselves effectively as to having an impact on the voting public. Don't let your mind wander, jerry will be released soon with obviously no charges, and while folk were integrated into this particular news story the government will hopefully assume that you forgot about all the real stories that need dealing with.
