Once civilization begins to crumble, the wolves appear, first in the shadows, then openly.

Americans are uniquely blessed with the Second Amendment - the Irish are, for all practical purposes, disarmed prey.

Given the above, you are correct - she was a gone gosling, and her family couldn’t have defended her. Being a disarmed victim is a bad way to go through life, but the Irish seem to tolerate it.

Pity for the girl, though.

Should be mostly because they are terrorists who murdered innocent men, women and children.

And the KGB always found the surrogates to do that. The IRA was one of those surrogates, much like the PLO, Baader Meinhof, etc.

Adams' brother was convicted last year of raping his daughter when she was aged 4 to 9 ... Adams admitted in court he had known of the crimes for two decades but didn't tell police.
