It must be a horrible feeling to find yourself facing Trial for Murder....while Terrorists who murdered are granted Parole/Amnesty for their crimes.

The situation in Northern Ireland always seemed so sad to me when it was going on....but this sad development just makes it so much more tragic.

The GFA should have been a blanket deal that should have ended prosecutions of any (everyone) who were involved in violence and served as the cornerstone for true reconciliation of all sides and groups.
