Rules of engagement changed marra.
We could actually shoot before they shot at us.

Good on the BBC for not pandering and sticking with the correct, full name of Londonderry

Funnily enough everyone who is actually from the place just calls it Derry

Yep the 'romantic' vision of terrorism left when the shit hit their fan

Is it just a coincidence this happens on the same day as police call for constable killer to come forward?

RUC constable killer 'to search conscience'

Happened 26 years ago

Probably so they can offer him a full pardon and some compensation.

It was the day certain idiots realised the difference between freedom fighters and terrorists. They are all terrorists once they start killing innocent people.

Seems a good answer to my point.

Reinstating a hard border provides a ready-made fundraiser for them. Smuggling (goods and people) will be a huge earner for the Real IRA. Seemingly their turnover is 50 million a year at the moment, and thats on diesel laundering and smuggling cigarettes alone. They are even exporting laundered diesel to GB.

It's strange how people assume it's Irish related, and no one calls anyone out for it (Rightly and obviously so) but if people assume other terrorist attacks are by Muslims, a huge out cry follows, with people saying you can't jump to conclusions you racist!

Nothing, PC prat thinks he’s right on all things Ireland connected.

 

[EcosseMackem]

More drugs and mob like activity than terrorism related.

The provos caused my cousin to close his bar in donegal as he wouldn’t pay the protection money they wanted from him.

Cuddly freedom fighters according to a few on here iirc
