I agree with what has already been said. I have two young children and I dont want to have to start explaining to them what the 'norms' were here for the last 20 odd years. I hope and pray that these people in the minority are found.

My thoughts are with all the families affected with the tragic events over the weekend.

I also want to voice my disgust at this repulsive savagery. Violence and murder will not intimidate us British people (British by choice) into your 32 county fascist Republic.

Democracy will win!

Well you're not speaking on behalf of me. You should be Northern Irish and respectful first. Dont bring your propoganda into this forum. I feel ashamed for you that you wrote that. For shame. For shame on you. It is people like you that antagonise situations like this. Really, I am disgusted and ashamed that you just wrote that. you can choose your words more carefully. Set us back why don't you 30 years.

Maybe if people desisted from irrelevant threads like this one, you'd be spared dsigust and shame. There are plenty of alternative venues

Speaking of being set back 30 years, and for the voice of the majority not wanting a return to violence, tonight in lurgan / portadown / craigavon there is rioting, theres a 'bomb' on the train line and youths are trying to hijack cars, and why? - because the police, with information, have this weekend been performing a series of house searches to gather evidence regard the murder last week of that police man - which they have found by the way so its not random.

No doubt someone will now bleat on about how the police have been 'heavy handed' in sensitive areas to suit their own agendas, but rioting, destroying cars and disrupting train lines doesnt sound to me terribly like 'the majority dont want this anymore'.

So whilst they all lie in their beds tomorrow - either on the dole or for half term break for st patricks day, i like many others will either face a 2 hr journey by bus to work and back (as opposed to 40 mins)

Oh, and the area where they're trying to hijack cars - is in the area where i normally park my car, so i can look forward to that tomorrow night too.

So having an opinion on a forum wont set us back 30 years, but behaviour like we're seeing in the craigavon area over the past few nights (and which probably wont make the news as its best kept under the radar) will.
