Paddy and Murphy
Back in 2006 Michael Stone was arrested as he tried to storm Stormont where Sinn Fein Leaders Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness were meeting. Stone a loyalist was arrested for attempted murder as he was carrying a nail bomb.
In court this week his defence said he was attempting to create a performance to display his objections to the meeting and the nail bomb was merely a symbol as well as the pipe bombs, three knives, an axe, a garotte and an imitation firearm.
Is this some kind of new Irish Jig that is on the scene?
But what gets me more is that the courts had to get a professional Performing arts expert in to study the idea and declare that it was not a Performance. No Shit!!
