Today would have been Bobby's 64th birthday. please log in to view this image He once wrote: "In a few hours time I shall be twenty-seven grand years of age. Paradoxically it will be a happy enough birthday; perhaps that’s because I am free in spirit. I can offer no other reason." RIP
Funnily enough it is also Vaycheslav Molotov's birthday. The man who gave his name to the things Bobby used to throw at innocent protestants during his teenage years.
Did Sands kill anyone other than himself ? If I had to share a cell with someone that throws poop I wouldn't be too impressed.
He was jailed for being in possession of a hand gun iirc. Seemingly he was a gofur for the Ra. A minion, was told to go on hunger strike by the big nobs who were eating Wimpy's like they were going out of fashion which ultimately they did.
I have no idea how this **** is even still remembered. Far more important people have died since and been forgotten.
Lovin' the hun beel on this thread. Cannae wait till Scotland is independent to see hordes of elephantine Rangers fans storming George Square, rioting and getting the **** kicked out of them by the polis and polis dugs, their bloo-stained <sic> Union Jack flags lying in pools of their own vomit.
The best of it is it was awe the Oirish republicans that voted No in the last Referendum that won it for the Unionists. Fecking idiots. Mindy to confirm.
