Very dangerous logic that mind

Awwwh maaan that’s an open goal if I ever saw one.

Yeah went full on Glen Close with @monkeytassle on a thread about the stock market and traders. Then played the victim and was banned.

 

[The Krankie Returns]

As an aside, there’s a Joe McCann on my team who is an ex-para.

 

[The soap powder]

I never said that and that has never been proven either

Aye that was a while ago, thought I'd seen her since then. Unless she dodged back into it later for another chip at poor harmless little minkey tinkle

 

[vinegar hill]

Not at all, thats an absurd point of view.
If you think shooting unarmed men is OK that is poor on you.

It depends.
The man was a known IRA operative who engaged in several attacks on British soldiers in what they saw as legitimate war.
So what gripe can they have if he was killed by the same soldiers they admit they were at war with?

Even in war you don't shoot unarmed combattants . Unless it's total war, and as far as I know the UK never declared total war on the population of Northern Ireland .
That's the cost of being the good guys .

Do you think he was bothered about British soldiers being armed or disarmed when he ordered fire on them or when he gave the go ahead for bombs on innocent people ?

Yet the IRA shot and blew up unarmed citizens.
They can’t have it all ways.

She loves a good victim card. I'm a strong independent woman until challenged. Then I go mad.
