Subject: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker From: Comrac (troll alert contact max) Date: 19 Dec 08 - 07:47 PM Sad news this evening Sean McKenna has died suddenly at his home. On the 27 October 1980, Sean began a hunger strike. Many prisoners volunteered to be part of the strike, but a total of seven were selected to match the number of men who signed the Easter 1916 Proclamation of the Republic. Sean lapsed in and out of a coma and on was on the brink of death, when the British government appeared to concede the essence of the prisoners' five demands with a thirty-page document detailing a proposed settlement. With the document in transit to Belfast, Darkie Hughes took the decision to save McKenna's life and end the strike after 53 days on 18 December. May you rest in peace now Sean. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: Jean(eanjay) Date: 20 Dec 08 - 07:09 AM Taking part in hunger strikes to the point of near death must have a detrimental effect on the body and consequently result in a shorter life expectancy. Brendan Hughes died earlier this year. I just wish it had never happened and those ten men hadn't died. Very sad. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: Jean(eanjay) Date: 20 Dec 08 - 07:27 AM .....those ten men hadn't died. I should have added in the second hunger strike in 1981 |

Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: GUEST,kickham Date: 20 Dec 08 - 01:52 PM Sean was a kind gentle humerous man who never got over having survived, t'was not of his choosing. In the end, he didnt survive. He should be remembered and respected not denegrated as he has been by some. Sean was a forgotten hero like many others of the first strike. May he rest in peace now and may his family gain some peace in the knowledge that he is tortured and humilitated no longer. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: goatfell Date: 20 Dec 08 - 03:25 PM There Were Roses (Tommy Sands) My song for you this evening, it's not to make you sad Nor for adding to the sorrows of this troubled northern land, But lately I've been thinking and it just won't leave my mind I'll tell you of two friends one time who were both good friends of mine. Allan Bell from Banagh, he lived just across the fields, A great man for the music and the dancing and the reels. O'Malley came from South Armagh to court young Alice fair, And we'd often meet on the Ryan Road and the laughter filled the air. There were roses, roses There were roses And the tears of the people Ran together Though Allan, he was Protestant, and Sean was Catholic born, It never made a difference for the friends, it was strong. And sometimes in the evening when we heard the sound of drums We said, ``It won't divide us. We always will be one.'' For the ground our fathers plowed in, the soil, it is the same, And the places where we say our prayers have just got different names. We talked about the friends who died, and we hoped there'd be no more. It's little then we realized the tragedy in store. It was on a Sunday morning when the awful news came round. Another killing has been done just outside Newry Town. We knew that Allan danced up there, we knew he liked the band. When we heard that he was dead we just could not understand. We gathered at the graveside on that cold and rainy day, And the minster he closed his eyes and prayed for no revenge. All all of us who knew him from along the Ryan Road, We bowed our heads and said a prayer for the resting of his soul. Now fear, it filled the countryside. There was fear in every home When a car of death came prowling round the lonely Ryan Road. A Catholic would be killed tonight to even up the score. ``Oh, Christ! It's young O'Malley that they've taken from the door.'' ``Allan was my friend,'' he cried. He begged them with his fear, But centuries of hatred have ears that cannot hear. An eye for an eye was all that filled their minds And another eye for another eye till everyone is blind. So my song for you this evening, it's not to make you sad Nor for adding to the sorrows of our troubled northern land, But lately I've been thinking and it just won't leave my mind. I'll tell you of two friends one time who were both good friends of mine. I don't know where the moral is or where this song should end, But I wondered just how many wars are fought between good friends. And those who give the orders are not the ones to die. It's Bell and O'Malley and the likes of you and I. There were roses, roses There were roses there were roses and ant tears of the people stand together. Aye a tortured soul right enough,a man who had helped to kill many innocent men, women and children, people that ahd nothing to with the so called 'war' in Northern Ireland. I just hate the republican/loyist terrorists I don't care wither you're republican or loyalist, no one has the right to kill anyone else, or be a part of that group that does that, I mean ther are other ways of dealing with it. the S.N.P want freedom from Westminster but we don't go around killing, sad though it is a human being has died but what about the countless innocent mudered people that he helpe to kill. |

Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: GUEST,Martin Date: 21 Dec 08 - 07:14 AM A lot of people should be hanging their heads in shame, as Sean was so badly treated by the republican movement. As a vol he was the bravest of the brave, a true soldier of Ireland. He was a very gentle, spiritual man and the most loyal friend any man could ever hope to have.Sadly it was 28 years to the day of Brendan the dark Hughes, calling off the the first hungerstrike,that Sean so tragically died. He was a man of deep conscience and moral standing and carried the burden of the ten deaths that followed. Some people have stated that Seans death would have saved the others(you know who you are) Sean was in a coma and hours from death, when the strike was called off and had no control over the situation and if he had, he would have seen it out to the end, this I have no doubt. A part of Sean was left in Long Kesh, he never got over the horrors of it all, he was deeply troubled and struggled with his conscience and questioned his own contribution to the struggle, more so considering the political situation we all find ourselves in. Did the means, justify the end? May you rest in peace Sean, you will be missed by your friends in Newry and south Armagh. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: Comrac (troll alert contact max) Date: 21 Dec 08 - 07:53 AM And respected throughout the North of Ireland. This gentle spoken man was troubled. It may not be the time, but many feel more could of been done to help him by those who now wear the suits and carry out British policy in Ireland. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: goatfell Date: 21 Dec 08 - 09:57 AM well Northern Ireland is NOT BRITISH but is a part of the UK which is different. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: goatfell Date: 21 Dec 08 - 10:01 AM some how I don't think he was repected by all in the Northern Ireland, perticular the Proestants or the murdered innocent men, women and children. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker- From: Midchuck Date: 21 Dec 08 - 10:12 AM I don't mean to make light of this, but it illustrates the communication problems that can arise between people who are supposed to be speaking the same language. In the US, the idea of a Republican hunger striker is the ultimate absurdity - the Republicans being perceived as the fat ones. Until I realized the post was about Ireland, I did a complete double-take. Peter |

Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: akenaton Date: 21 Dec 08 - 03:24 PM Well, I'm a Scot and a Nationalist...for what it's worth. The ordinary people like Mr McKenna are always betrayed by the leadership. I would love to see Ireland united under one flag, and Scotland an Independent nation...but I won't hold my breath, it seems the politicians have always the last word; and we have an additional problem, right from the days of the United Irishmen, Ireland has been awash with heros like Mr McKenna, people with a real pride in their culture and traditions, but we have no modern heros and in truth, very few from antiquity, we have sold our language and culture and all we have left is a shortbread tin country split by mindless religious sectarianism. I have no religion myself, but I hope your God looks kindly on Mr McKenna. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: Comrac (troll alert contact max) Date: 21 Dec 08 - 04:48 PM Just returned from his wake house. What a wonderful family, humble and proud. They said he never spoke about his strike of 54 days without food, or the events which lead to the second strike in 1981 in which ten men died. His mother showed me some of the wonderful poetry he wrote in recent years. A lot of it expressed his troubled mind. He will be laid to rest tomorrow in a most peaceful setting, St, Mary's Church yard in Ravensdale. The suffering is now over Sean. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: goatfell Date: 22 Dec 08 - 04:30 AM I'm a Scot and a Scottish Nationalist as well, but I just don't support the terrorism in any country which is done by these muderers or their pals. as I said it's sad when someone dies no matter what. and yet no one has mentined the sufering of the 3,000 innocent men, women and children that these 'humans' killed or helped to kill, no one gives a damn about them well those are the ones that I feel sorry about. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna.

I say no more. |

Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: Comrac (troll alert contact max) Date: 22 Dec 08 - 04:11 PM Indeed Megan, tell them of the murderous role of state forces in Ireland when your at it. Sean's funeral was a civil affair at his own request. There was nothing political about it. There was no referance to his hunger strike during the service. Sean had suffered from depression for the past number of years and could no longer take the pain. He is away from that now. |

Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: Keith A of Hertford Date: 24 Dec 08 - 07:18 AM I agree with Comrac on one thing. "Not really a time for cutting the crap out of eachother lads. Hang fire for another time." Hopefully some of the guest posts like the 4.51 pm will soon be deleted. I am a little surprised that you wanted to run an obit for Mr. McKenna here. He was not known as a musician, so what kind of contributions were you expecting, considering that most here would regard him as an ex terrorist? Hanging fire for another time. keith. |

Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna.

I wrote to him often both by comm and at the window. To anyone who should speak ill of him I only wish you had known him you would have come away with a different view and a better understanding of yourself and of Sean he was a humble man and a gentle soul. I will miss him. |

Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: Comrac (troll alert contact max) Date: 24 Dec 08 - 05:06 PM I imagine the fact I mentioned a recent comment posted about me on another thread here to members of another forum, possibly some of the guys who came to view it saw this thread and posted on it. I don't see anything sinister in them paying their respects. Regarding his obituary and your remark he wasn't connected in any way to music, please check the other obituaries. You will find politicians, actors and television personalises among them, I see no exclusions in the rules. I posted the thread in case some members from overseas wished to pay their respects, I did not have any other motive. Enjoy the holiday break. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: Keith A of Hertford Date: 24 Dec 08 - 05:33 PM I was just curious about all the guests. No exclusions on obits, but this is a little out of the ordinary. Peaceful and joyous Christmas to you. keith. |

Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: GUEST,Pheonix Date: 24 Dec 08 - 07:57 PM I think Goatfell you will find that there are many kinds of balaclava's. Pilots who drop 1000 lb bombs on innocent villagers from 25,000 feet or carpet bomb whole cities. SAS lying in ditches backed up with the arm of the state who operate outside the law , faceless, nameless. Trigger happy killers on bloody sunday who still ,thirty years late, hide behind screens , destroy evidence , manipulate the truth. British prime ministers who sit in their comfortable living rooms thousands of miles from danger who authorise the killing of hundreds of sailors by an invisible enemy under the sea and rejoice at their death. Right and wrong, good and evil , no-one has a monopoly on any of it , where you find self righteouness hypocracy isn't far away. I was a young man when i first saw Sean McKenna's fresh face stare out from a poster. I always wondered what became of him and it brought back memories when i heard of his death. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: Big Mick Date: 24 Dec 08 - 10:41 PM Pheonix, I am the co moderator of the forum. I am also from a family with decidely Republican views, and we have debated many times with folks in these precincts. Having said that, I must tell you that the deletion of your posts had nothing to do with your views. As long as you use a consistent identity, and don't attack anyone personally, you are free to post. You may debate someone's positions, you may attack the evidence and opinions they post, as long as you do so without making personal attacks. We ask that the debate be kept civil, even while we heatedly defend our positions. I do not expect those who are not steeped in the traditions of our people to understand starving oneself to death. It goes to the very old traditions regarding hospitality in the home of the Irish Celt. One must never turn away someone in need of a meal or a place to lay their head. Conversely, the greatest insult one can hurl at another would be to starve themselves to death while in their hands. Kind of the Irish Celt's way of throwing a shoe at someone. It is a statement of the gravest kind. It is altogether too easy to label men of conscience, such as McKenna, as terrorists and murderers. History is never that easy. There are those that would say Gandhi fomented terrorism even though his way was through nonviolence. The American patriots that hid behind trees and fought to liberate this land from the forces of the Crown were called cowards and murderers. The Free French commandoes were considered terrorists if you were a German soldier. The Viet Cong, fighting to rid their land of the Imperialists used tactics that caused innocents to lose their lives, yet many consider them brave fighters. McKenna, whom I have never met, from all accounts was a gentle man who was willing to give his life in the ultimate act of nonviolent protest. You don't have to like him, but one day when the whole of Ireland is united, it will be in some measure due to him and his brave act of defiance. God be good to him. All the best, Mick |

Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: Keith A of Hertford Date: 25 Dec 08 - 05:48 AM Big Mick, all those fighters you listed were fighting for causes for which there was no alternative but to fight. They did not have the alternative of just persuading enough people to vote with them. I respect McKenna's peaceful, self sacrificing protest. I called him a terrorist because he was an IRA man. A bomb in a shopping centre, bus station, etc. etc. that kills mums and children IS terrorism not politics. I do not know if he did such things but, if so ordered, would he have a choice? Did he ever speak against such things? |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: goatfell Date: 25 Dec 08 - 11:02 AM i agree a terrorist is a terrorist and I don't care which side they fight on.. As I say waht about all the innocent men,women and children that died in your so called 'war' and as Keith A of Hertford says if he was ordered did he do such terrorists acts did he have a choice and did he speck out against such things? |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: goatfell Date: 25 Dec 08 - 01:20 PM big mick name me one person Gandhi killed or helped to kill, he was against any form of KIlling whereas these people were all for Killing, and there is another way to get what you want either the way that Gandhi did it or you can take a vote. these people didn't care who they killed or helped to kill, I'm a Scottish Natinalist as heart and a republican views but I don't think that they way that you cna get what you want is by murdering people that's all. these people no matter what side they are on are just scumbags |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: GUEST,Pheonix Date: 25 Dec 08 - 04:11 PM Goatfell decidely ignored the point i made but i do recognise the sacrifice Ghandi made against the terrorists who occupied his land perhaps Goatfell in your 'i don't care what side their on' will therefore acknowledge the evil tyrany the British Empire wreaked across the globe. My main objection really is that no matter who i disagree with and that can include strong feelings i would never choose an obit to have a go at the dead person or their beliefs. Respect the dead. |
Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: Jean(eanjay) Date: 26 Dec 08 - 08:45 AM Some of the hunger strikers felt betrayed. Looking Back in Anger "I don't think it's been worth it. If someone had told me 20 years ago, you're going to go to jail, you're going to get tortured, you're going to go on hunger strike, you're going to watch loads of men dying to get this... I'd have told them to forget it." "We were decommissioned with nothing," says Hughes. "IRA men and women, who gave everything to this struggle, got poverty, premature death, and mental problems in return. They carried a lot of guilt too. The hunger strikes took a huge toll of those who took part and of their loved ones. The suffering of EVERYONE on all sides makes me feel sad. |

I wouldn't be as heartless as those who organised the british war machine. You have failed to address any of the points i have made.

Subject: RE: Obit: Sean McKenna. Republican Hunger Striker-1980 From: goatfell Date: 03 Jan 09 - 07:22 AM so you are saying that the terrorist on both sides did not kill innocent people it was the armed forces, and the IRA didn't kill two wee boys in Warrington when they placed a bomb in a litter bin, so the terrorists on both sides are just lovely nice people and it was the armed forces that did all the killing, well when in Britian obey the rules and laws, I don't like the English government either but we're stuck with them until something better happens, and as for mckenna and his numpty friends where they are now it won't be a cold place. anyway as I say I just hate all terrorists. what kind of man by Eric Bogle What kind of man is he and which cause did he use When he placed the bomb, when he set the fuse did he walk away crying liberty and if he did what kind of man was he did he sleep well the night deft to to dying last screams did no bloody ghosts walk through his dreams does he shed innocent blood as part of a grand strategy and if does what kind of man is he ch for all the tears and mourning for all those you've maimed and killed for all the murdered children god damn your soul to hell is he a family man does he any kids will they ever understand what their father did does he use noble words like freedom form tyranny and if he does what kind of man is he are you out tonight wearing your everyman's face do you still see yourself as part of the human race in spite of the murder you've done and the killing that you've yet to do and that's why I ask what kind of man are you from Gethsemane to Auschwitz the man with the gun has stood between us and what we could of become shall we be dragged once again into barbarity if we let them do that what kind of men are we and one final thing you've and your numpty friends on the thread/post have not said any words of sorry to their victims either. so it's the case of blame the whole thing on the armed forces and not the terrorists, Idon't why I'm written this because 'people' like you just don't want to listen do you. so plese read what I've said but don't reply, becuase if you do then you're a numpity too |
