“A catalogue of the lives lost in the Troubles lists him as Victim 1205,”

what a terribly sad, chilling, and depressing statement that is

This is an example of why the Good Friday Agreement needs to be promoted and strengthened. Listening to Jimmy's wife and children and seeing the effect his murder had on their lives drives this home. You can see in the face of Jimmy's wife the sadness of losing him even after nearly 50 years. Apparently she has not given any interviews before now. The man should have been able to live out his life and enjoyed the respect and appreciation the players and fans had/have for his talent.

So the UVF/Unionists saw killing a one-armed footballer as a win, a "that'll show 'em" moment.

I'm torn between easy target and armed adults with 10 year-old brains.

Don't believe a word I say. I'm only kidding. Or am I?

Easy target is the answer. Most of the people murdered in sectarian tit-for-tat killings were ordinary innocent people trying to live normal lives in a war zone ( shades of the Ukraine war here ).

Can't emphasise enough the importance of the Good Friday Agreement whose 25 year anniversary is being celebrated today.
