I a...I don't get your Mary Travers point Jude.<br /><br />I agree with most of what you write, hence one of the reasons I read you is because you often articulate my own nationalist & republican notions better than I would myself.<br /><br />This may be a flawed analogy but it might be like a unionist reading Alex Kane & thinking this is good reasonable stuff, making my unionist thoughts better than I could myself,and then being shocked if he were to suggest that some loyalist atrocity wasn't murder.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5965333981619997978.post-56483601801426577732012-11-20T17:10:39.647+00:002012-11-20T17:10:39.647+00:00Ok Jude as a nationalist and Republican I can hone...Ok Jude as a nationalist and Republican I can honestly say your thoughts on the Mary Travers murder are appalling. There was no excuse for this attack no matter how you try and dress it up. It was a revenge attack for a murder prosecution, forgetting for one moment to attack a judge is bad enough but to then murder his daughter(not kill as that implies it was some accident or that she was hit in crossfire with legitimate targets ie other people with guns, no that didnt happen it was cold blooded murder) AND attempt to assasinate his wife in a CATHOLIC church car park no less pretty much sums up the type of people we are dealing with here. Its not as if these ''heroes'' attacked some security force types they picked a soft target and their cold blooded actions quite frankly are a disgrace to the human race. So even though I think Jim Wells is a useless bigot I can understand why he was a little bit upset when he saw McArdle wondering around Stormont on a nice salary.<br />You can refer to other murdering politicians or the RUC or the Army all you like it doesnt take anything away from the horror of this incident.boondocknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5965333981619997978.post-23955655095386468952012-11-20T16:28:29.494+00:002012-11-20T16:28:29.494+00:00Correct me if I'm wrong but I seem to remember...Correct me if I'm wrong but I seem to remember hearing you on Sunday Sequence with William Crawley and on occasions contributing to the Nolan show.Has Thought for the Day a higher status than other programmes?Im not clear iwhat remuneration is due from the B B C for these various slots.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5965333981619997978.post-79903202723799706472012-11-20T13:07:14.770+00:002012-11-20T13:07:14.770+00:00To above poster ...also Anonymous (no relation):
