That nutter Michael Stone...

[Swales lives]

... got 16 years today for his attempted assassination of Martin McGuinness and Gerry Adams at Stormont. Fair enough, he was carrying an imitation gun, three knives, a hatchet and a garrotte. He also had a bag which contained explosive fireworks, flammable liquids, a butane gas canister and fuses as well as 7 nail bombs. Luckily none of them exploded.

The one funny thing though was his plea of not guilty, "it was cutting edge performance art, not an assassination attempt."
Pure genius.

As if his past life wasn't enough proof: the man is a total headcase.

I fucking hate those two ira bastards, McGuinness and Adams but what a fucking nutter Stone is. When will they all fuck off and leave the rest of Ireland to live in peace?

 

[Thanx4Knives]

He said it was art hahaha, he was fucked in the head long before he joined whatever group he represented, he has some condition were his muscles are wasting away so he'll end up completly paralysed soon enough, Karma's a bitch eh, Dont drop the soap Mike!

 

[Young_TomO]

if it is true, he could be out in 8 years.... Hopefully.

And Guy Fawkes was just trying to make the Kings entrance into Parliament a bit more 'grand and glitzy'

John Wilkes Booth got his line and part wrong, thought he was in a play about shooting the President, and accidentally the gun he had was loaded.

Pontius Pilate thought he was doing Jesus a favour by putting him on the cross to help him get a more even tan

And Prince Phillip only wanted to scare Dodi and Diana a bit in Paris, purely the make them aware of the benefits of wearing a seatbelt. He he he...(I believe it WAS an accident by the way)

 

[TonyGrealishstache]

And Thomas Heatherwick’s ( B of the Bang) got off scott free for his 'art' crimes. No justice

He got his ass kicked by a female security guard at the door, she took his gun off him and pistol whipped him with it before trapping him in a revolving door, fair play love!

The guy is crippled. Fair play to him for trying to kill those two murdering bastards.

I'm not sure Stone even knows what he's about these days. Total fruitloop.

As for the guy who said 'fair play' to Stone for attempting what he did, grow up. We've got a peace process now, do we really want that derailed?

Well said. There's idiots on each side that would welcome a return to the bad old days. Time to move on boys and girls.

Thanks for providing Bluemoon with a fool proof, working definition of 'irony'. Now where can I find Alanis Morrissette's email address?!!

 

[aka blue jambo]

surely as a assasin he is rubbish !!

 

[Didsbury Dave]

If I remeber rightly, Michael Stone was the one who singlehandedly attacked an entire IRA funeral with grenades, killing two people.

It ws performance art. It was entered for the Turner prize but came second to
Tracy Emin's unmade bed.
