Terrorists and Bovine Welfare



How touching, ladies and gentlemen!! Sinn Fein members have now taken their first tentative steps into the world of animal protection. Although they positively jubilate over the spilt blood and dismembered body parts of Homo Sapiens, they do not extend the same blood-lust to creatures of the natural world - particularly where Bos Taurus is concerned.



Conor Murphy, Sinn Fein/IRA for Newry & Armagh is worried (oh dear!!), about the possible effects of Army installations in the South Armagh region. A calf was recently born with two heads: a phenomenon which Murphy happens to link to the 'emissions' emanating from the military paraphernalia in the area. He omits, as always, to mention the reason why South Armagh is so heavily militarised in the first place. For the uninitiated, it has quite a lot to do with the terrorist-oriented hobbies and interests of a sizeable proportion of the local populace. If the region was not awash with some of the most evil men and women anywhere in the United Kingdom, the presence of State forces could be reduced to conventional levels.



Resorting to increasingly bizarre and pathetic excuses to justify 'demilitarisation' in Bandit Country might cut some ice with republican cavemen in Short's Bar, but it does not persuade the democrats of Northern Ireland of its merits. If idiots like Murphy can go so far as to link military installations to bovine deformity, I will argue that there must be something in the air in South Armagh which causes human beings to be born without hearts or consciences. What else could explain their sick political beliefs, obnoxious electoral preferences, and their admiration for people who have copious amounts of innocent human blood on their hands?
