@_quincey @irish_news Why are you attempting to downplay the actions of this group responsible for morally reprehensible crimes, including the deliberate targeting and murder of innocent Catholics?

The bloodstained cassock of Pope John Paul II from the assassination attempt on his life 45 years ago today, May 13, 1981, carried out by Mehmet Ali Ağca. Understanding the gravity of the moment and that his life hung in the balance, St. John Paul II chose to forgive the man who tried to kill him. Years later, he would offer that forgiveness face to face. Thirty years after that extraordinary act of mercy, Mehmet Ali Ağca reportedly converted to Catholicism. He later laid white roses at the grave of the man who changed his life and, through tears, said: “This is a miracle that goes on. The mystery of Fatima goes on. Long live Jesus Christ!” St. John Paul II credited Our Lady of Fátima with saving his life. In gratitude, the bullet that narrowly missed his heart was later placed in the crown of her statue.

@JamieBrysonLLB and if it arises again, the courts would have to disapply UK legislation. Also, the UKSC found that EU law can underpin rights in the GFA, meaning the "no diminution" guarantee exists. Therefore, the EU still has jurisdiction here in Northern Ireland, and matters (3)
