Mr. Giant Reacts Bloody Sunday The Croke Park Massacre
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 вер 2023
- Bloody Sunday, also known as The Croke Park Massacre, occurred on November 21, 1920, during the Irish War of Independence. It was a tragic event in the context of the conflict between Irish republicans seeking independence from British rule and the British authorities, particularly the Royal Irish Constabulary (RIC) and the paramilitary group known as the Black and Tans. I react to that sad incident in this video.

A 2nd Bloody Sunday, or the Bogside Massacre, was a massacre on 30 January 1972 when British soldiers shot 26 unarmed civilians during a protest march in the Bogside area of Derry,
It was a typically heavy handed response by the British. You see similar responses today from certain countries.
Nail on the head...Mr G ...they didn't ever need an excuse, ..that was the first Bloody Sunday .....next one was 50 years later and just as bad ,if not worse
No way! Just watched your potato famine video after being recommended it. Thought i'd check out ya new stuff and another Irish video! Right on brother.
Hope you enjoy!

The Cairo gang were British intelligence, not a literal gang but I can understand why you thought that. I think Jamaica has similar gangs associated to political parties like Grenada has.
" gangs don't and never have been a part of the Irish political discourse "
Cairo Gang were a squad of the british secret service.They were an official branch of the british secret service they weren't gang as such.They were called the cairo gang because they frequented the cairo cafe in dublin
You should watch the anthems Ireland V England 2007 rugby six nations game, where it was played in the same stadium. 1st time the english national anthem was allowed to be played in our home of Irish sports, Croke Park, the trepidation that led up to this game, the concerns we all had and the immense pride we felt on that dau, will be forever etched in our hearts. The anthems were powerful!
What? Ireland call?
@@leonardryan39Both Amhrán na bhFiann & Irelands call and at the time God save the queen
@@leonardryan39you’ve got to have something for Northern Ireland non republican rugby fans. If/when there is a United Ireland, it ell have to have a place where unionists are allowed celebrate their history peacefully / most will get that.
Mr giant. I just want to say one ting to you. Im Irish. Im sure you know that. I lived in England for ten years. In the ladt tree years i worked for a man from st Lucia. He was the best man i ever worked for in England. He didn't pay so good but he provided fringe benefits. We wont talk about that here. Moreover i respected him and he respected me. I could blow up at him when i felt i had to and he would try to address the problem. We were very close i felt. Not just employer employee . I miss him quite a lot. Vince Gordon was his name. Thankyou
I have been to St Lucia, its part of the Windward Islands which Grenada is part off. Very beautiful place and most of the people are like the gentleman you worked with.
we had three Bloody-Sundays in the 20th century 1913 when the Dublin Metropolitan Police bato-charged pedestrians on Sackville St afterJim Larkin a trade union leader attempted to make a speech, ironically the dead and injured that day just happpened to be on the street.. No audience was organised the speech was merely to embarass the employers leader who owned the hotel, when Larkin appeared at the balcony, the police charged. The second 1920,was described in the video. the third 1972 in Derry. Hopefully there will not be another.
Michael Hogan Tipperary (Gaelic footballer)
Jersey is in The Tipperary Museum of Hidden History in my hometown of Clonmel also there is a Clonmel in Jamaica.
If you ever get the chance, you should watch the film "The Wind That Shakes The Barley", it's about Irish history and it's very good
Thank you Iwill check it out.
@@MrGiant Michael Collins is better
Definitely Michael Collins, some of the footage is from the movie.
@@vcrossCelticfc the three minute sequence of the Croke Park Massacre was litttered with inaccuracies though and Neil Jordan, the director, took so much creative license to bring that to the screen which he freely admitted to when the movie first came out...the reality of what really happened that fateful, tragic day was much more horrific...an excerpt from a rare interview on the South Bank Show with Melvyn Bragg & Neil Jordan in 1996..........................................................................................................................................................................................Bragg: 'A lot of people will say, in Croke Park, where the football game was played, the British did not come in with tanks. There were soldiers who climbed ladders and dropped into the park. So, why introduce tanks?
Jordan: Well, it wasn't a tank. It was an armoured vehicle.
Bragg: Looks a bit like a tank, though.
Jordan: Well, it's basically a machine gun with a kind of protective saucepan around the top. But they did drive their own vehicles. They would've had protective vehicles like that there. What they did was kind of worse in a way. They scaled the walls and locked all the exits and kept the people in there for the best part of the day. They were firing and picking them off for an entire day. So, the reality would have been probably more terrifying.
Bragg: Yes.
Jordan: The reason I did it really was because I wanted the scene to last 30 seconds. I also wanted the spectators and football pitch to treat the possibility of violence with incredulity at the start. So, when the thing breaks through, that little tin pot vehicle looks ridiculous. The player kicks a ball over the top of it and scores and the entire football ground bursts into laughter... The rhythm of that war that Collins fought was every action by the Volunteers would give rise to a grossly inflated reaction by the British forces. Whereupon Collins would have a wider ground and wider support and then strike in another way. The rhythm of the conflict was one of escalation and I just tried to mirror that in the presentation of that conflict in the film.'
thank you brother, us irish appreciate you watching this :( we were ALL effected by a certain countries actions!
No doubt!
I just found you tonight, second video I watched, you are resonating mate, my family are heavily involved in this history, my Dads Uncle organised and took out the brit spies, he was responsible for the Mount Street Massacre of British Soldiers too, he continued to train IRA until the mid 1950;s... that was The Uncle,, The Great Grand Father got shot by the brits 2 days after signing up on Easter Sunday, one of 66 men shot dead that day....
I love how you are connecting our shared history, now u know why The Irish get called The Jamicans of Europe ,, we share a history and culture we all forgot or never were taught, wonderful vids mate, happy I found your channel, and as always,cmon you Spurs (I'm a Tottenham fan)
Thank you for sharing. I was once a Tottenham too. Kind of lost track of them after moving to the US.
@@MrGiant My Man, once a Yiddo always a Yiddo COYS we beat Liverpool today - mate, i love your vids, happy to find your channel, but u gotta get back into Tottenham mate, Spurs are back
Safe to say many events like this over centuries resulted in a complicated relationsjip between Ireland and Britain.
An ting an ting an ting! Hey man love from Ireland
Talk about the Bally
Murphy massacre or Derrys bloody Sunday please.
Arrest was never on the agenda.
There was another Bloody Sunday in 1972 which killed 13 Human Rights protestors, in the City of Derry who were killed by British paratroopers.
The cairo gang were actually a group of british soldiers who had fought and acted in the intellegence services elsewhere for the british, they werent a gang, but soldiers who were called such
love your videos keep it up ,The football player who got shot had an area of the stands named after him to commemorate it
Thankyou forwatching. Thank you for theinformation also.
Thanks mr giant
You are welcome. Have a great week.
Liste. To the groups The Wolfe Tones and the Barkeycorn.
They done the same thing in India . only they couldn't get the armoured cars through the gates
The Irish are the most effective revolutionary people ever
If I remember correctly this is one of several days called bloody sunday including during the troubles.
In relation to this event in particular it has become part of the psyche/lore of Dublin in general and Croke Park in particular and has evolved into the traditional area of dublin supporters whenever a match involving the dublin team is involved.
we had two bloody sundays, the first one way back when, the second on Jan 30 72 day my sis born
We are irisfh
Listen brother we had no irish or blacks allowed in England we are brothers black white on other wise we are brother s from k8ldare
🍻🍻
That was a Gaelic football match. Real men don't play soccer.
Believe it or not, as I'm watching this I am wearing the 100 year commemorative replica Tipperary jersey, with the picture of Michael Hogan emblazoned on it's upper sleeve, that I put on this morning be pure coincidence,.
This evil act committed be the empire was, is and always will be unforgivable.
Ireland will be free.

Don't be so shocked Mr Giant, shooting civilians is a time honoured tradition of the Anglo-Saxons.
Why do think we hate the english
PS The earliest ( Ithink) Bloody Sunday was in Czarist Russia in 1905.
There are many incidents called Bloody Sunday, but I think the first one was in Russia in 1905. A protest by workers to reduce the working day and increase wages was met with fire by the Tsarist police. This led to the beginning of the Russian Revolution of 1905-1907 and to a large extent to the actual Russian Revolution of 1917.
Giant react to the history of Irish slaves were shipped abroad like the black history yet little is known of it
Will do, thank you for suggesting.
@@MrGiant look it up man history is full of disasteruos disigines not the best of spellers dislestic but if we can't see our mistakes from history and keep treating every one as different black white Asian rich poor life's never going to change
Not exactly the same with Jamaica
This depiction did not happen. The British soldiers did not have an armoured car. The movie was disgraceful in its inaccuracies. The comments are full of dopes mouthing off about the British even though they haven't got a clue about their own history.
Love the film myself but Neil Jordan really took the piss with some things. Ned Broy lived into his 80's for feck sake 🤣
As j.Lennon said.
If you had the luck of the Irish.
Bet you wish you was english instead.
Peace and love to you ❤️ MO CHARA
