Hopefully saving Ireland from another 30 years of deaths. More than 160 petrol attacks, bombings, assaults and murders have occurred since the Good Friday Agreement was approved by voters in May 1998. These attacks by Protestant Loyalists against innocent Catholics and Nationalists increase daily due to the political vacuum that's created by the stalling of the British and Irish Government. They have yet to implement the Agreement. Meanwhile, Protestant Loyalists murder innocent Catholics.
Guns are a symptom of the overall problem, take away the problem and the guns go with it.
The people of Ireland deserve to live in a democratic and civil society with equal rights for all. The Good Friday Agreement provides the foundation for democratic government and an end to the violence. As a result of the referendum in May 1998, Sinn Fein is entitled to two seats on the Executive of the new Assembly structured by the Good Friday Agreement. The GFA and Joint Frameworks document provides equality to all sections of the community and all political partys, by not requiring any pre-conditions for those elected to office. There can be no lasting peace unless and until the people see the political results and move away from the many past attempts of requiring one side or another to do more than simply being elected to government.
