Ghandi might have been on the list of 'freedom fighters' but he never killed anyone unlike that piece of shit Adams and his pals

Two things: 1. He must have been late anyway as you should have plenty of time to be sent for secondary screening and still make your flight
2. 3 of the last 5 flights I've been on I've been sent for secondary screening, and it would have been 4 out of 5 but the woman directing traffic through the security checks didn't see the "SSS" printed in large bold letters on my boarding pass. Does this mean I am on a terrorist watchlist ???

Re: Gerry Adams arrested in NY
Being from the place Adams was supposed to come it did royally piss me off. We had Congressman Higgins - a twat of the highest order - on the radio whining that suggesting that Adams was invloved in violence or terrorism is an insult. To which I say bollocks. Higgins even went so far as to argue that Adams is the man who has brought peace to Ireland. People don't seem to understand that he and people like McGuinness are not just thugs with voter support, but were leaders of an organized mob. The IRA and Sinn Fein would terrorize their own communities with beatings and threats - not just blow up portestants they didn't like. They would frighten their own people into handing over protection money.
I can honestly say I would have gladly spat in his face had he walked through Buffalo.
