    Here's what I said.

    I support what they stood for but that doesn't mean I support everything some of their members done. The poppy day massacre was a disgrace which was approved by a mid level officer but I agree with the killing of British soldiers and I understand that civilian casualty is sometimes inevitable.

    I was speaking in context of the war that soldiers were legitimate targets.

    Dear jack923,

    You have been permanently banned from Politics Cafe for a breach of the forum charter.

    Every forum on Boards.ie has a charter which lists any specific rules that forum may have and it is really important that you read this as it'll help you familiarise yourself with how that forum works. You should also understand that every forum is different and that charters are how you learn the differences.

    Please see the Boards.ie FAQ for more details.

    If you wish to appeal this ban you can see details on how to do so here.

    Advocating terrorism . Also just back from a ban. This isn't for you

    I certainly agree that average Irish people were clueless about the troubles. Many of them either supported the terrorist IRA or had a sneaking regard for them. That allowed them to continue with their atrocities for much longer than they should.

    If only all Irish people had taken a harder stance against the IRA from the start, then maybe so many people wouldn't have died.

    This is not a good enough reason to ban me I'm supporting one side of a war over the other


    Jack - The decision to ban you was based not just on that single post - although that post was a clear breech of both the forum and site charters.

    In the preceding 4 or 5 days you had accumulated several cards and you had also just returned to the Café following a 2 day ban for personal abuse.

    Your pattern of posting showed a clear disconnect from what is acceptable behaviour on the forum and the wider site so the decision was taken to ban you.

    I remain fully confident that this was the correct decision.

    If you wish to contest the ban , please follow the Dispute Resolution process.

    Thanks

    I believe this is based on some moral thing from the mod I had just been banned from the cafe but he just used that as an excuse to make the ban.

    Thanks for confirming that.
