It is good to see an educated post on anything about the six counties on threads.

Six counties? You would be a Sinn Féin supporter, who as far as I can see oppose the governments here, there, and everywhere, but take the money.

He was released without charge

A file is being sent to the relevant authorities.

This happens for most suspected criminals. At the moment he is no more innocent (in the eyes of the law) than a car thief, handbag snatcher, drug dealer, murderer, drunk driver, arsonist etc. It's up to the NIDPP to decide if there is enough evidence to send him to trial, until then everything else is guess work and conjecture.

Most murder suspects? Nope. Given the serious nature of the suspected offense and the fact that a court request was submitted for additional time to question him the reality is that they would have charged him there and then if they had grounds.

The chances he be charged drop significantly from here. Also, the statement covers the PSNI to some extent as a justification for the four day charade. They had to say that, even if they know the file is weak as water.

The British view on Northern Ireland has changed significantly. They know well that the nationalist community will be the majority, soon, if not already. The plan to create an exclusive protestant state worked for a while but you cannot discriminate against one side forever and expect them not to rise up. NI is a very expensive troublesome district to the British.
A few weeks ago we saw the Queen of England having dinner with the Irish, amhran na bhfiann playing at Windsor Castle with a tricolor flying outside. I sense the establishment are slowly preparing for the handing over of NI eventually. Within our lifetime certainly

Within our lifetime is meaningless. I don't know what age you are or how long you expect to live. Put a number on it.

Yeah, I don't *really* think you are. Still a pretty tasteless thing to say about someone who has not been found guilty of any wrongdoing, though.

If you have evidence that he doled it out to others then contact the PSNI, as you obviously have more evidence than they do!

What "wrongdoing" was Mrs McConville found guilty of?

Ignorant etc.

@bumper234

Gerry Adams and all those you listed are not innocent in the eyes of the law. Except for the small fact that the law clearly states that everyone is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. A police station is not a law court.

actually all the law says is that you have a presumption of innocence, it doesn't say you are innocent.

Where did i say "most murder suspects"? Please don't try and twist words to suit your agenda.

Most people get released without charge (unless they are a flight risk) and a file gets sent to the relevant authorities who will decide if there is enough evidence to prosecute.

Ulster and Northern Ireland comprises of nine counties, six of those are under british control. Call a spade a spade, you would probably call it a pick or a shovel.

True. So too are virtually all (actually all?) BA troops who served on NI innoncent, in the eyes of the law.

Thus for discussion purposes, we sort of need to lower that bar a little.

Leaving now.

Sit Down protests. Bit Amateur from the police there.

The announcement by the PSNI was appalling. It allows the knuckle draggers to gather and shout their hate

Busted Flat.

This some embarrassment for the RUC/PSNI. Loyalists will not obey their police. Some loyalist's. God save the Queen.

The amount of hatred that Gerry Adams inspires always shocks me, especially when Enda Kenny, a man who actively seeks to bring sorrow and suffering to the door of thousands of families in this country in order to enhance the wealth of his cronies is lauded by those who would condemn the Sinn Féin leader. How many have commited suicide as a direct result of the policies of Enda Kenny to drive the vulnerable deeper into poverty? For me, he's definitely a man with blood on his hands, even if many would argue indirectly.

I don't know.. why are you asking me?

I don't think she deserved to be killed even if she was an informant... no more than I think Adams should be shot or locked up despite the lack of evidence implicating him.

Turn right lads...

The factions of the north that would rather the region stays in turmoil making their voices heard, I see. An excuse to get the flag out. Sinn Fein couldn't buy this publicity the loyalists are giving them right now.

_Whimsical_

Wow this is just disgraceful. It was predictable and completely preventable.

If this sparks a situation where another person loses their life or another child loses a parent the PSNI will have blood on their hands for their poor handling of this. They've just successfully increased tension in the loyalist community and played into SFs theory of a biased police force to fuel further unrest in the nationalist community.

Just awful.

A decoy.
