So instead of trying and imprisoning IRA terrorists we should have
bombed Dublin and Boston?

As a slight aside, isn't it strange how since 9/11 the de facto "irish" (most
of them probably couldn't find Belfast on a map if it was lit up with flashing
neon lights) americans support for the IRA rather dwindled.

Funny how a dose of the reality of terrorism suddenly stops it being a trendy
cause to support. You could argue that if 9/11 had happened a couple of decades
ago a lot of yank funded deaths in northern ireland could have been prevented.

I can only assume that that's a subject that you've been itching to
rant about. I'm not interested.

Still waiting for the police to come knocking?

If I were you I'd worry more about the men in white coats.

Looks like a case of debating techniques as well as prejudices acquired
before the age of eighteen. Well before the age of eighteen.

We just know how much fun you had during the last round.

It took me a while to work out your disordered thoughts.

I realise that you think that standing peacefully in Parliament Square
with a placard is the same type of thing as looting and arson in the
suburbs*. From your planet, I guess the whole of life on Earth is
kind of distant and looks pretty much the same to you.

*The police can tell the difference though. They brutally attack
people for doing the former, and stand back doing nothing about the
latter.

Why would that matter?

It would go some way to explaining the axe you are grinding.

Ah, you think that only gay people would care about gay people being
tortured to death. Well, that certainly fits with the rest of your
contributions to this thread.

Who is torturing bright and cheerful people to death?

Europop singers?

False.

If a homosexual is mugged *because* she is homosexual, it is a hate
crime. If she is mugged because some low-life wants cash for his drug
habit, it is not a hate crime, just a crime.

What happens if she believes it was because she is homosexual, but the
mugger disagrees? What standard of proof is needed?

IANAL, but I'm slightly uncomfortable with some classes of victims being
told their incident is "just" a crime. But I am somewhat biased as a
result of having been a young white male English-speaking locally-born
atheist heterosexual victim of an assault that I was quite lucky to survive.
