Deareg said:the inla themselves have said that in the past their actions fell far short of of what the community were entitled to expect and have apologised, did you notice that all of these people were involved back in the eighties?
Cobbles said:Did they manage to un-drill any knee-caps?
So do you have proof that all the so called anti social individuals the INLA punish are guilty?No matter how you dress it up,murder is fuckin murderDeareg said:no that is just your own mindset, i wont even ask you to provide any evidence of any republicans dealing drugs because you wont be able to as it does'nt excist,

That's not due process. I can't believe you are trying to justify this behaviour.Deareg said:inquiries are always carried out supported by the community
TAE said:That's not due process. I can't believe you are trying to justify this behaviour.
So we should just bring the fucking death peantly back then!Deareg said:no i dont have proof, how would i? are you going to engage in a debate or just keep on trying to score points, you have not tried once to back any of your posts up, while i agree that murder is murder and a far from satisfactory way of dealing with these individuals i would still rather they were shot than have our communities go the way that many in britain and the south of ireland have gone,
That's very sad.Deareg said:yes i am justifying it and many more within republican areas are justifying it too,
I'm sure the police 'made inquiries'.Deareg said:nationalists have had next too no justice since this place was first founded with thousands locked up for years on end with little or no evidence in non jury courts and thousands more over the years without even trial,
No, it's a good reason to insist on due process.Deareg said:so it is a bit rich to start talking about due process

I was being sarcastinc in regards to your post #22.Deareg said:you obviously have no idea then about policing over here
That's a shite way of running things.Deareg said:quite possibly, but if your version of due process means this place turning into a mirror image of large parts of england then it is not going to happen any time soon as more and more people call on paramilataries to once again take control of the anti-social elements
The right to a proper fair trial is not some peculiarly british 'moral viewpoint' and it is certainly not 'slightly naive' to want everyone to have it.lewislewis said:But at the same time we have to recognise we cannot apply British-style thinking to that problem in Ireland, due to the very different nature of communities and violence in that country, and to criticise the involved factions and communities from a (laudable) moral viewpoint is slightly naive and ignorant of the very real conditions on the ground.

lewislewis said:I don't take either side, but to be honest i'm internationally against the death penalty including extra-judicial killings. I would condemn all murders including this one.

Cairns, 18, was described as a "quiet young lad", due to start work as a mechanic yesterday. It is understood he was injured in a shooting by the INLA last year after being accused of fighting with one of its members.
O'Neill, 18, had been suffering from severe depression for a year since he was also the victim of the INLA's summary justice.
His sister, Patricia, said he was dragged from his bed and put down a manhole for seven hours. His captors told him they were going for a gun. As he waited in the dark, O'Neill chewed through an electrical wire in which he was bound and, covered in blood, ran to his sister's house.
She said he had not been the same since, suffering anxiety and deep paranoia. "He felt he was worthless, he thought he was scum. He was no angel, but he wasn't in any [armed] groups ... Because there is no longer a war on, these groups are turning on their own. They need to find something worthwhile to do.
"My 13-year-old son walks around the park and he says a paramilitary says to the boys: 'What age are you? It won't be long before you're getting shot.' It's a form of terrorism, of torturing the boys."

Teenage suicide is a epidemic in areas where community policing occurs

You can rant and rave about these communities being let down by the state but, in the end of the day, no one is putting a gun in the INLA's hand and forcing them to shoot teenagers. The system isn't perfect but it doesn't cripple children intently leaving both physical and psychological scars.

heads are we?
its a dangerous game the patriots game maiming teenagers and killing drug dealers who did'nt give the boys cash all in the name of justice![]()
Isn't that partly because the police and anyone who went to the police were being attacked ?Deareg said:the police over here for years turned a blind eye
Deareg said:is that the sum total of your point of view? quoting a british newspaper?
i am not ranting or raving, i am trying to explain how and why ordinary working class people turn to paramilataries for help rather than going to the police,
you are right the system is not perfect but at least you have a system, the police over here for years turned a blind eye or completely ignored anti-social behaviour in return for information and also to break a communities spirit, from drug dealers, criminals and thugs that same community are not just going to turn to them now because the conflict has stopped

But no offense, drug dealing, joyriding and anti social behaviour are still going on, and the IRA/INLA are not an effective deterrent.
Secondly Quis Custodiet ipsos custodes, Who polices the police. The death of Robert McCarthy and the IRA cover-up that followed in the wake of his death. In that instance these groups are more than happy for anti social behaviour to occur, witness the rioting that went on when the PSNI made it's first attempt to collect witnesses. These paramilitary thugs can effectively silence entire communities and act with impunity. How much do people want these "community police" and how much of it is fear if they are crossed?

And during the 'party', they delivered a savage beating to the pal of a young suicide victim the gang had themselves driven to take his own life.
The young lad punched one of the INLA men and knocked him to the ground, before the rest of Dark Cloud's men piled in and gave him a savage beating.
Said one source: "What these thugs were saying to the relatives of the young people who killed themselves was just disgusting.
"And when one stood up for himself, they gave him a beating.
"They just think they are untouchable, but they make people sick."
The INLA in Ardoyne was blamed for driving a number of young people to take their own lives because of their bullying 'punishment attacks'.
More than a dozen young people killed themselves in the first half of the year alone.
