When he was stationed there, officers were barracked with their families so my mother was there (this was before I was born, must have been the early 60s) and one day she went to buy some groceries from a shop she'd never been to before. When she got back she was told by one of the other army wives never to go there again because it was a Catholic shop.

He was a changed man, apparently. Ah, so that's OK then lol. Like Dirty Den but a bit dirtier.
A rapist turning to social work? Hmm. Needs work I think.
My feedback thread is here.

That is quite common practice for some people still to this day. Of course, it only exists within those hardcore factions of society but never the less it's still there. The majority of people aren't bothered about the name above a door now thankfully.

So, I'm well weathered to ignorant people and their comments. It gets boring having to repeat yourself.
Id also add as a Scot living here I'm also neither catholic or Protestant.
Go figure...

Terrible, terrible situation for a young man to walk into. I don't think any of the soldiers based here during the troubles wanted to be anywhere near the country.

But to use WW2 as the example... when Germany rampaged across Europe they were stopped, by force.
When the Brits kept trying to take Ireland they were met by Irishmen who stood up for themselves.
My question to you is - can a nation not defend itself against an invading force?

An interesting historical fact is that once Landed at Hastings Harold sent messenger envoys to William asking if he wouldn't mind staying put and waiting for him to come and join battle as he was busy in the North of England quelling a Viking rebellion under Tostig .William was a gent and duly obliged whilst his troops ran around for 4 months pillaging Sussex.
The biggest threat to William was that on the very same day he landed at Hastings Harald Hadrada ,a Dane Viking ,landed in Kent with a force ready to March on England and Harold Godwinson .Both Harold and William pointed out that it was a tad inconvenient and would he mind awfully postponing ;they asked him to leave and come back for another attempt some time in the not too distant future -and he obliged !
THE POINT OF THE STORY AND RELEVANCE TO THE MCGUINNESS ISSUE IS THAT HISTORY AND POLITICS ARE NOT CLEAR CUT
NOR HOW WE ARE TAUGHT AT SCHOOL;
MANDELA, ARAFAT,BEGIN,TOPRAK,TITO,ASSAD, etc all TERRORISTS /FREEDOM-FIGHTERS depending on your perspective but all Poachers turned Gamekeepers and legitimised.
Most of the British Empire was "captured"initially by Pirates/Privateers inc Raleigh and Drake who were able to buy favour with respective royalty by cherry picking the spoils and giving the rump to the Empire.Like Conquistadores they were also "terrorists "

An army from a country a couple of hundred of miles away starts murdering Irish men, women and children for resisting, for speaking their own language, for playing their own sports, for having their own way of life.
