    Marcela Sands was my mothers best friend at school. They lived on the same street in Newtownabbey, it was originally built as a mixed area, both Protestant and Catholic, but the Catholics were forced out.
    My mother said the Sands were a lovely family... RIP Bobby ❤❤❤

    So many died for Ireland, so it would be free and the hunger strikers, among them. I don't know what you all think, but to me the hunger strikers were murdered by the brits and old maggie just as much as if she used a gun and shot each one. One word from the old bag was all it would have taken and 10 lives could have been saved, but she chose to not do the right thing, so their blood is on her hands.

    There was no reason for Bobby Sands to die the way he did; there was no real reason why the British government of the day should have refused the recognition of political prisoners and the very simple demands put to them. This video highlights the very complex nature of the situation in The North / The Province / Northern Ireland etc; which I, for one, hope is resolved in my lifetime to reunify the Island of Ireland.

      John 3:16-21
      16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

      The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

    During those days many people died on the streets of Belfast and many lives were destroyed. We are still under British rule.
    It's all those who suffered I pray for now I'm getting old.

    The Troubles still is living in me even if i am from sweden and the period in my life when i spent time in Eire was in the last part of the sixties. The catholic family i spent time with did not like to talk about what was happening in Northern Ireland. There were a discussion about the background to the violence in Derry. Some means it was of religious backgrund, other meant it was political wih great britain involved. And others meant it was a political fight ot class origin where the catholics had no support from the republic of Eire while the protestants where supported from London and Great Britain. Today it is a lid on the kettel and in my mind its a boiling conflict in the minds of them who were a part in the period thats called the troubles. You will find the same boiling kettel in different parts of the world today

    The more I see out of the 6 counties, the more I see Macha’s curse on Ulster.
    She’s said to have made the curse in about 500AD, and said it would last for 81 generations. Depending on how you reckon a generation (either the life span of person, or the space between the birth of parent and child) that curse will last 1620-5700 years.
    500+1620 = 2120. Which means we have almost another century before the earliest point at which the Ulsters will be free of the curse. Will be interesting for those of us alive then to see if that’s when 26+6 =1 happens.
