Yet another supporter of terrorism as grand marshall. The sad thing is that many of the Irish in this country think that supporting the IRA is a good thing, because they are "fighting for a united Ireland." If the IRA is so wonderful, why is it that the government in the Republic of Ireland will not allow them refuge, and is allowing Britain to extradite them? Perhaps because they are not really fighting for a united Ireland, but are just killing innocent *Irish* women and children! Or is that their way to a united Ireland (and therefore the way many people support)? In addition to that, they have made an honourary Grand Marshall of the police officer who was indicted in the Bumpers case. (When you think about it, if a regular citizen is allowed to use a handgun against an *unseen* screwdriver, then a shotgun ought to be able to be used against a visible carving knife, even if the person weilding it is both obese and arthritic :-}, or is it that the police shouldn't be allowed to use deadly force, only private citizens? :-) -- James C Armstrong, Jnr. { ihnp4 || allegra || mcnc || cbosgb } !abnji!jca "She's real enough.
