Martin McGuinness Dies Aged 66

[Bielzibubz]

Northern Ireland's First Minister and IRA terrorist has died at the age of 66. Good, may he and his lot rot in hell.

Now, just Gerry Adams and a few more to go and the planet will be a better place.

Please don't let the news today be full of eulogising. This man had blood on his hands - and a considerable amount of that. Yes, he may have worked towards peace in later years but his past should never be forgotten, or in my opinion, forgiven.

I just hope the Queen disinfected her hand after that infamous shake. To allow that man anywhere near our Queen was unforgivable. Vile man.

 

[Gremlin]

Martin & friends.

You lot have made your minds up, there's really not much point commenting is there.

Do you really believe Donald will last that long?

Yep, my mind is very made up. He ordered murders whether you like it or not and had innocent blood on his hands. I hope he goes straight to hell and burns in the fires for all time.

In your case certainly not.

A friend of mine, who was in the army, had the job of listening into his conversations during the height of the troubles, as they had his house and offices bugged. He has personally heard McGuinness order the shooting of Soldiers and civilians.

After years of denial it was proved that the IRA fired first at troops on Bloody Sunday. The man who opened fire was McGuinness. Yet we are still spending huge sums of our money to try and convict former soldiers. You won't see that deluded fool JC sit down with any of our military and defend them.

RIP.Martin McGuinness.

 

[Supernaut]

RIP.Martin McGuinness.

Exactly what I expected from you.

 

[Blueronron]

MM was pure evil, he has taken to the grave the places were bodies have been dumped and families will continue to grieve.
He knew he was dying and still took the secrets to the grave, hope he suffered in his last moments and is screaming in hell for ever and a day

I think someone should close this thread before it goes toxic.

I think someone should close this thread before it goes toxic.

Why ? If it provides debate, heated or not, that is what the forum is for.

No personal abuse between members, please.

RIP.Martin McGuinness.

You wonder why people abuse you on this site. I can't make out if you're genuinely twisted or just trolling for some attention. How can you wish that scum **** RIP is beyond me.

The bloke was and will always be a ****ing scum ****!

A photo I have seen today taken in 2007 of people sat round a table looking at ease with each other - Martin McGuinness, Bertie Ahern, Tony Blair, Peter Hain and Ian Paisley. So essentially mortal enemies sat together to end a war.




Of course McGuinness is a murderer. He was also part of the peace process and people way way more effected by his actions than any of us chose to push his past to one side for the sake of the future.



3 things I have read today on Twitter:




James O'Brien - journalist


McGuiness was both a murderous terrorist & a powerful force for peace. He changed. Our furiously binary zeitgeist can't compute such change.




Jonathan Freedland - journalist


I once saw M McGuinness holding a room of Israeli and Palestinian leaders rapt, patiently explaining necessity - and possibility - of peace






Most importantly:
Jo Berry


Tebbit not speaking for all, I value Martin McGuinness as inspiring example of peace and reconciliation. I lost my Dad in Brighton Bomb @GMB

And once the above has been digested.

Warrington, Bishopsgate, Baltic Exchange, Guildford Pubs, Birmingham Pubs, Arndale Centre, Enneskillen, Belfast, Londonderry, Balcombe Street, Canery Wharf and the failed attempt closer to home on Canvey. Digest a few of those then write ****ing RIP.

 

[Blueronron]

I will add Mountbatten and his innocent family on the boat, Horse Guards Parade, Aldershot Barracks and Harrods

 

[Supernaut]

I'll save my RIPs for innocent victims like Tim Parry and Johnathan Ball. I hope McGuinness rots in hell - utter scum.

I didn't write RIP I said 'Of course McGuinness is a murderer. He was also part of the peace process and people way way more effected by his actions than any of us chose to push his past to one side for the sake of the future.'
