Minister McDowell

Published by Fence under Current Affairs, Irishify

has a speech on the release of those responsible for the death of Garda Jerry McCabe (apols if it is spelt with a G, have seen both versions). The full text is up on politics.ie

He makes a lot of good points (bloody FFers shouldn’t be allowed make sense), but I still don’t like the fact that FF only seem harsh of SR when election time roles around.
Make up your minds boys. Then again this is FF I’m talking about…

The IRA & Jerry McCabe

Published by Fence under Current Affairs, Irishify

You know my gut tells me that those guilty of the “manslaughter” of Garda McCabe should not be let out on early release, but then again if I take that attitude am I placing a greater value on his life because he was in the republic as opposed to all the RUC officers shot by the IRA in the North?
