I note with interest the increased number of these types of comments from folks that hope that they can now white wash the actions of the RUC and the involvement of British forces in actions against the Irish people of the North of Ireland. The reason the Republicans still hold onto these songs is that they enunciate the injustice against them. Kevin Barry was KILLED for not giving up his friends. Had he been British being held by Germans in WWII, you would be singing his song.

Instead of railing on about this stuff, how about you rail on against the Paisleyites and their intransigence against establishing a working government. That would tell me you care about the kids of the North of Ireland. Your post tells me something quite different.
