Subject: RE: BS: Priest in 1972 IRA bombing: Another cover up
Never suggested only one chiuld rioting - stop twisting my words again. on the other hand, you persistantly have attempted to shift the blame for the troubles (or skirmishes, as you called them) on youths, children and outsiders, instead of where it really belongs, the aggressively sectarian marches.
You still have not produced one example of your claim that large numbers of children took part.
"Only a large number would merit that much concern and that many column inches."
Are you serious? Any number of children, from two to twenty, involved in rioting would not only produce "that many column inches", but would make the headlines - how low are you going to stoop to cover your despicable effort to lay the blame at the door of children?
Facts - none of the press reports - and I'm sure you've trawled the net and have been unable to find one -, have mentioned significant numbers of children, youths or outsiders.
What we have here is a supporter of violence-provoking sectarian marches attemting to blame children for any trouble. Nothing to do with the threateningly abusive nature of these demonstrations by bowler-hatted thugs who have been known to terrorise schoolchildren as young as 4, of course.
Even the NI administration and the police have warned of the provocation cause by some of these marches and have said that it has to be dealt with, but Keith finds it easier to blame the children.
