Honestly, the IRA bombings were some fucked up, scary times. Every other week there was a fresh reminder of how dangerous The Troubles were. I am 100% behind Ireland reclaiming the North but killing people achieves nothing but heartache. I read a bunch of fucked up comments on the Daily Mail site the other day saying Bostonians deserved these bombings because of IRA funding drives held in Boston bars decades ago. How anyone can think someone like the 8 year old boy killed in Boston, or the little boys killed in Warrington, deserve to die is beyond me  |
i was in town centre which isnt massive but wasnt in the incident area but not very far away really and managed to get out of town quickly.
