Paramilitaries Still Assaulting Ulster
It seems everyday life in Northern Ireland is still being disrupted by gangs of thugs intent on wreaking havoc for the sake of something to do. This weekend saw Denis Bradley, Vice Chairman of the Policing Board, state he would not resign before April when the board is due to be reconstituted. This announcement came after he was attacked with a baseball bat by a masked man in a bar in Londonderry last month. The attack is believed to have been the work of republicans.
Then this weekend, a Ballymena Saturday Morning League football match between Harryville Homers and Broadway Celtic had to be called off over fears UDA thugs were planning to attend the match. It's pretty sad when guys can't even go and kick a ball about without having to look over their shoulder for who might be watching.
What is it makes these useless wastes of space think that what they're doing is anything but selfish and harmful to the rest of society in Northern Ireland? There is no greater cause; it's savagery for the sake of savagery and it needs to stop.
