I'm no fan of the IRA or Sinn Fein, but Bloody Sunday set back peace for at least three decades.   A colossal error.

John and Paul both wrote songs in response to the situation.

SBS? that was made in like the 83, that at least brought some of the feelings of the innocent bystanders to those that were killing them

I know it's not positive.  But it is positive that U2 didn't let their song get used as an sectarian anthem.  God Bless 'em.  

On Bloody Sunday the soldiers shot women and kids fleeing--they even shot people who had stopped to tend the wounded.  

I know Christmas celebrates the birth of Christ and the hope of his life, but that life is inextricably linked to his sacrifice and the message that violence is not the answer.  We have to learn how to solve our problems without killing each other if we're going to make it as a planet, a species and a set of souls.  

I think John Lennon preached the same kind of thing.  He wasn't, in the end, bigger than Jesus, but his message was spot-on, whether he called himself Christian or Buddhist or Hindu or whatever.  

Stop the killing now . . .

Sorry Mairi Christmas, if the world had more of you we'd be a much better place.

"Now lemme tell you somethin'. I've had enough of Irish Americans who haven't been back to their country in twenty or thirty years come up to me and talk about the resistence, the revolution back home. And the glory of the revolution, and the glory of dyin' for the revolution. f*** the revolution! They don't talk about the glory of killing for the revolution. What's the glory in takin' a man from his bed and gunnin' him down in front of his wife and his children? Where's the glory in that? Where's the glory in bombing a Rememberance Day parade of old-aged pensioners, their medals taken out and polished up for the day. Where's the glory in that? To leave them dyin', or crippled for life, or dead, under the rubble of a revolution that the majority of the people of my country don't want. Sing no more!" - Bono during SBS

Such hate. Why can't we just learn to love one another? Violence only begets violence.

I'm one of the least hateful people I know, but I just enjoy listening to hateful music every once in a while.

It's better to make agressive music than to actually be agressive.
