Talk:Cathal Brugha

message: OK, he was shot in the thigh. But where was he shot, and what was he doing when he was shot? Was he shot as he ran out of a house/shop on a street in Dublin with a gun in each hand to face the Free State forces shouting 'No Surrender'? And is that street now called Cathal Brugha street (previously Gregg Lane)? 193.1.172.163 14:12, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Where, and how, did he die?

message: Is everyone sure about the usuage of the 'Tone song being appropriate? The Tones did a whole series of hagiography about various Irish rebels, although I always found the one about Collins to be full of faint praise. Notice that song is not included in this. I'm a little worried about the copyright status. Thanks again, PS. sorry to be so late responding V. Joe 22:19, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Another question/Wolfe Tones song

message: The song is not by the Wolfe Tones. It was penned by Brian O Higgins who was a comrade of Cathal Brughas and a fellow member of Dail Eireann. It is not copyrighted. The Wolfe Tone Annual was a yearly historical publication by O Higgins. AlanMc
Thanks Alan. I guess I came off as a bit clueless. Thanks V. Joe 02:27, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Wolfe Tone Annual not Wolfe Tones the band

message: The second reference in this article says: "However, Michael Collin's role in the War of Independence was such that Brugha had little any actual involvement in the running of the war effort". This isa comment, not a reference. So either work it into the article, or delete it. Debresser (talk) 14:31, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  References 

message: There is a new digital library on the Dublin City Public Libraries website. Aside from being addictive and utterly fascinating, it has a photograph of Cathal Brugha's funeral through Dublin. Here it is 89.101.41.216 (talk) 16:28, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Photo of Brugha's funeral

message: As a British reader who studied this article in an unpartisan light, it looks to me unclear from the detailed narrative, and the background of dividing political loyalties in the Irish Civil War, as to what the cause of his death could be classified as.  Was there a coroner's inquest held, with those who shot him being questioned, and a returned verdict, or some other form of inquiry into the death?  Could the death be classified as:
*manslaughter?
*misadventure/error?
*murder?
*killed in action (given his military position)?
*'justifiable homicide' (the verdict frequently given on those who die shot dead by police or officials seeking to arrest or restrain them)?

replies: text: Why do we need to "classify" the cause of death? The cause of death itself is quite clear from the narrative. Is there a "classification" in reliable sources? If so, you need only look them up; if not, what you're talking about is original research.  --Scolaire (talk) 16:34, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
