"I listed the things he was engaged in that met the criteria of a very active volunteer. What is your problem with that description"?

A charge of possession of a weapon doesn't equate to very active in my book.

"The UK government's answer to the Civil Rights movement WAS to meet all their demands".

Unbelievable. Of course you fail to mention that in order for NI nationalists to be treated equitably in terms of a fair election system, an end to gerrymandering of electoral boundaries, an end to the perceived discrimination in the allocation of public sector housing, the repeal of the Special Powers Act etc. They would have to hold public demonstrations, be beaten and killed in some instances and all to have a piece of what the rest of the UK population has always enjoyed. And then have internment without trial visited on them.

And finally the coup de gráce. Your interpretation of the targeting and systematic killing and maiming of unarmed innocent men women and children is a peace keeping mission that went wrong.

You know folks I think that, that will be it for me. This place has taken enough of my time over the last while. I think its time to pull the plug, there's a lot more interesting things going on in the world and I should go do them.
