A young 15 year old boy was vicously attacked in Ballymena, he died later in hospital, just because he was a Catholic. opiinions on event..
I dont know the specifics of this case, as there was no link posted, but it’s obviously a sad state of affairs.
Anything that could help to stamp out religous intolorence or racial intolorence should be welcomed.http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/northern_ireland/4763731.stm
This diabolical attack has been condemmed by both sides of the community leaving most folk thoroughly horrified. Unfortunatly this was not the first case of its kind . Please God it will be the last tho somehow i doubt it.
And it’s also a terrible state of affairs when i cannot say that this killing has shocked me. I mean a 15 year old kid gets haunted down like some wild animal and battered to death with baseball bats and it didn’t shock me? the killings have been going on for so long that as terrible as it sounds that poor kid is just another grim statistic in a long list.
They have been brought up thinking that violence is the simple answer to everything so it is going to take a long, long time before these sort of events become a thing of the past (sadly). Still, at least it reaches the news now, not so long ago a sectarian murder in Ballymena wouldn’t even have merited a mention this side of the water.
condemned has it? well i never.
why do people need to state the obvious?
Awful tragedy for the family of the young boy!! my heart goes out to them at this terrible time!! Whatever religion he was its no defence for taking someones life, never has been a defence and never will be!! xx
