'Explosive' thrown at Gerry Adams' house

"An explosive device has been thrown at former Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams' house in west Belfast, the party has said.

In a statement the party added activist Bobby Storey's house was also attacked."

"Sinn Féin MLA Gerry Kelly said "these were reprehensible and cowardly attacks".

"Grandchildren were in the driveway of Adams' home minutes before the attack," he added."

Nobody wants to see a return to violence on the streets but I’m sure those throwing the explosive devices were freedom fighters fighting for their rights.  Wonder if they phoned ahead like decent terrorists?

(Entirely cynical post before anyone thinks I have any sympathy at all for either side, which I don’t)

Londonderry has seen a rise since Martin croaked it, go figure. Last few days been embarrassing with the scum coming out.

Probably just phoned his mate up.

If it’s yet another thread turning into a Labour/Conservative argument (yawn), let’s not forget that your party is only in power because they bought the support of the other terrorist group in Ireland

Wasn't I responding to Krish?

Isn’t it an open forum where everyone can respond? Send him a direct message if you want to keep it secret.

I thought it was. I responded to Krish, you felt the need to jump in.

Are you going to say they aren't mates?
