at long last the paratroop regiment has been outed as a bunch of cowardly murdering scumbags ...Its about time

Yeah, yeah, like catholics in N.Ireland never gave them a reason to be out on the streets of our country.

It's in the past, so act like a man and deal with it.

If you REALLY knew your history on this island (I'm talking about pre-WW1, and long before) you wouldn't be so fast to run your mouth off.

If you want to go back far enough, William of Orange had YOUR POPES consent to wipe the rebels (that is the pagan tribes) from Ireland. Yet y'all seem to believe he came under order from Britain. Which is true, but back then all the Catholics that did exist in the towns, were happy for money from the British Empire to come in, especially with everyone jumping ship to the states and to the mainland.

So before you bring your sectarian bullshit to another place it doesn't belong, pick up a fucking book or two.

Back on topic, they will never be able to retrace each shot to prosecute each of the murderers this far on, which is a shame.

But in all honesty, being in their situation I'd of had an itchy trigger finger. I believe I'd be more diligent in the whole 'not shooting people running away in the back' but if you're lining up targets and scoping for weapons, and one moron fires a shot (speaking of which, whatever happened to the idea of someone from the RA being in a window firing the starter shot?), everyone will probably squeeze their triggers.

Shame, but shit happens. It was & still is terrorist warfare, and unfortunately they are still trying to write that rulebook.

What a load of bullshit and dont tell me to learn my history as i am well away of irelands history over the past 300 years never mind the last 100...I think its time u wised up and realized 12 unarmed civilians were shot dead by the army who then lied about the civilians saying they were carrying weapons....These lying cowards have been caught out by an inquiry headed by their own countrymen....and btw love the saville report clearly states there was NO gunman and as for ur statement "Back on topic, they will never be able to retrace each shot to prosecute each of the murderers this far on, which is a shame" this clearly marks u out as a bigot so plz keep ur comments to urself

my mate was just telling me about this and i think it pathetic what the British did

FOURTEEN civilians killed on Bloody Sunday died as a result of "unjustifiable firing" by British soldiers, the long-awaited Saville Inquiry found today.

Prime Minister David Cameron told the Commons that the inquiry said none of the casualties posed any threat to British troops.

He said the inquiry found that the first shots were fired by British troops, no warnings were given, and some of the sol

ADVERTISEMENTdiers lost control.

The 14 civilians died after British troops opened fire on a civil rights march in Londonderry on 30 January 1972.

Mr Cameron told MPs: "What happened on Bloody Sunday was both unjustified and unjustifiable. It was wrong."

He added that "what happened should never have happened".

"The Government is ultimately responsible for the conduct of the armed forces. And for that, on behalf of the Government, indeed on behalf of our country, I am deeply sorry."

The inquiry found that the soldiers of the support company who went into the Bogside, where the march was taking place, did so "as a result of an order which should not have been given" by their commander.

It concluded that "on balance" the first shot in the vicinity of the march was fired by British soldiers.

None of the casualties was carrying a firearm and while there was some shooting by republican paramilitaries, "none of this firing provided any justification for the shooting of civilian casualties".

In no case was any warning given by the soldiers before opening fire and the support company "reacted by losing their self-control ... forgetting or ignoring their instructions and training".

The result was a "serious and widespread loss of fire discipline".

Afterwards, many of the soldiers involved "knowingly put forward false accounts in order to seek to justify their firing".

The inquiry found that some of those who were killed or injured were clearly fleeing or going to the assistance of others who were dying.

The report's detailed review of the events catalogued scenes of horror that included the image of unarmed victims shot dead as they tried to crawl away

You read the saville report yet? Or you just taking quotes from the news?

Cos im still trying to download it.

For a start, how does it make me a bigot? It IS a shame that those who have killed innocent civilians on that day, will quite likely never be prosecuted. They won't know exactly who all fired killing/injuring shots.

Without specific knowledge of that, they can't prosecute any of them. They can reprimand/dismiss them, but that's the height of it.

And considering the length of time it has taken, shit gets forgotten, stretched out & exaggerated....if anything was to be done, it should of been done 20 years ago.

Today all they can do is slap them on the wrist, unless they step forward and own up.

Hell I don't like that it has happened, but it has happened.

It shouldn't of happened, but it did.

Same way the british troops got lured into the country in the first place, to extinguish the violence in the streets.

Indeed. I know a lot of people on this island, and the only ones who seem to know the history are the ones who don't give a fuck about it.

Cos there's no point bringing up your original sectarian line, without knowing your history. There are many paratroop regiments, try narrowing it down if you want to aim it at a specific group.

yes i read the saville report as soon as it was available and trust me u will be shocked at the extent of lies and cowardice of the soldiers there that day..as for ur statemnt "For a start, how does it make me a bigot? It IS a shame that those who have killed innocent civilians on that day, will quite likely never be prosecuted. They won't know exactly who all fired killing/injuring shots" i took this to mean u didnt think the soldiers DESERVED to be prosecuted..im sorry i realize now u didnt mean this but seriously read the report i am not a sectarian man but the things that happened that day could turn any catholic against the army

is that a serious comment ....u know rightly what paratroop regiment im talking about ...the only one in derry on bloody sunday

Yeah, but it's the whole background behind it. The soldiers shouldn't of needed to come over here in the first place, but they did.

The police, police. The army defend the homeland. The second the army starts fighting within it's borders, it has lost the plot.

But back in the day, the police wern't going to take revolvers out against fully automatics....so assistance was brought in.

Personally they should of been dealt with the day it happened, but it was brushed under the carpet, so there's a long list of people to blame, other than those who fired the shots. Most of which, will never be prosecuted.

Look at the system we are in dude, we could rob a town blind, kick the shit out of everyone and anyone in that town, and worst case scenario, get a suspended sentance for less than 18 months. If even. Probably less. Fuck that.

I know what reg it was you were refering too, but that's just them, not all the paratroops. 1PARA I think...

OK OK LISTEN UP

40-50 years ago the was good community spirit in Derry and all of Nothern Ireland. While not all people and families help the same views would talk Openly and Proudly about religion, politics and government.

The events of bloody sunday and the troubles between "catholics" and "protestants" ( i have these groups in commas because if they were real christains that believed in the teachings of Jesus they would not fight under any circumstances) in general further split the communities and divided them which made it easy for the new world order controlled politicians to get away with everything they wanted, these were things such as the good friday aggrement and the transfer of our legal powers to the European Union.

Today there is no real community spirit in our wee country, Stormont has no real power, all the real power to make and change laws is now with the EU everyone is ruthlessly out for no1, afraid to speak above their breath when they talk of religion , politics or goverment. This is what the NWO want, masses of sheep to scared to have an opinion contary to the status quo.

So you keep this silly sectarianism going if you want, ur paying right into the hands of the satanist elite's currently forming a world goverment. I am going to concentrate my energy on the biggest threat that we all face.
