Unfortunately the Good Friday Agreement had many flaws and/or overly generous/unbalanced concessions within it.

Whilst the reduction in sectarian violence and terrorism it helped usher in was and is welcome, the continued harassment of security service and military personnel, decades after 'representatives' of Republican and Unionist terrorist groups were given an amnesty, continues to be a stain on the process.

Either all parties should have been give an amnesty or none.
