"Impossible according to the Suspensory Act of 1914"
That was not my claim - it was a direct quote from the Wiki entry of home rule - the dates are given
You continue to pronounce without evidence - who says it is impossible other than you?
"Home Rule WAS a done deal"
Again - you hasve been given the evidence and the quotes and contiinue to pronounce rather than provide your own.
The Redmodites described the July 1016 efforts as a "betrayal (True or false) and they were hardly known as revolutionaries
"What else would you call gunning down unarmed men Jom?"
An article in this mornings paper announces that the relatives of the rebels are seeking an apology for the at least five cold blooded murders carried out by the killer of Francis Skeffington Sheehy, Captain J. C. Bowen-Colthurst.
Colthurst's name is the only one ever connected with "murder" - the accusation that the rebels were "murders" is yours alone
They were executed for their part in the Rising - as revolutionaries, not as "murderers"
This is a squalid invention of yours and Keith's
The Brits were shelling unarmed non combatants - including women and children - you might describe that as murder.
Where is your evidence that rebels ever deliberately gunned down unarmed women and children - who else makes such a claim?
You are a pair of anachronistic jingoistic making it up as you go along - nobody is putting up these claims apart from yourselves.
This is little more than a rerun of your Irish Famine Holocaust denial - this time with the racist mask taken off - the Irish deluded people as a whole ignorant of their own history and supporting murder - how else would you describe that other than racist?
