    why dont you stand against him. I just hope that the people here with their fake indignation will have said a quiet prayer for that of the dead Garda.

    his use of emotive to describe words used is entirely reasonable.

    You are seeking to excite emotions using such language. He pointed that out.

    At your age you think you would start acting your age

    How do you know its 'fake'? You and others keep repeating this without any evidence whatsoever. On my part; it's quite real, and no, I didn't say a prayer - atheist that I am.

    Touché

    I have no intension of 'exciting emotions'. It was a demonstration of contempt for his point of view.

    Id say much of it is fake ,based on the fact that Garda Mcabe is a household name yet noone could name the last psni/ruc officer to be killed on duty .lots of spin going on imo.

    Point is, these were not political murders, they were criminals pure and simple. Maybe you would prefer the Sinn Fein way of prosecution of criminals with a simple bullet to the head or a 'six pack'.
    If you'd read all my posts you'll have seen that I expressed my disguise at the Hypocrisy of the Southern Press and some of the posters on this site! When the murderer of a very close relative of mine was released after serving 18months of a life sentance not a single person in the south condemned it! Or that I have to meet the scumbag every day while he gives me the two fingered salute!
    Hyporcrites, the look of you!

    In fairness the majority posting here are from the southern jurisdiction of Ireland. The RUC/PSNI are not 'our' police force. I can be outrage about one and not the other. It may not be 'reasonable' but it is still genuine.

    Plenty down here, and the evidence south of the border suggests that SF is a busted flush.

    My sincere condolences.

    As I said above the release of those men who murdered your relative was seen as a necessary evil in order to bring about an end to the killing. In a perfect world they would and should still be in jail.

    McCabe was killed thirteen years ago. Move on. The McCabe family statement accepted that the serving of the full sentence had broght a closure so can the rest of ye please move on? The mafia would not hold a vendetta that long.
