Northern Ireland’s second city is still fertile soil for rebellious youth with its poverty and paramilitary groups

The author and journalist Lyra McKee in 2016 wrote an essay about young people in Northern Ireland that turned out to be poignant and prophetic. “We were the Good Friday agreement generation, destined to never witness the horrors of war but to reap the spoils of peace,” she wrote. “The spoils just never seemed to reach us.”

As usually radicalization the answer when things go FUBAR.

Because it is Irish?

The IRA or any derivative of the IRA, or any supporter of the IRA needs to be jailed or shot. They are a cancer that the decent people cannot eradicate without force.

Calls for calm in Northern Ireland after 'terrorist' murder of journalist Lyra McKeePoliticians from across the divide called for calm in Northern Ireland after a journalist was shot dead in a suspected terror attack. Word from Ulster: 'Young drug dealers don't like their homes being raided by the police so they use republican propaganda' Arlene Foster of the DUP, Sinn Fein's Michelle O'Neill, Robin Swann of the UUP, Colum Eastwood of the SDLP, & the others; best thing u could do is get a functioning govt in Stormont ! Alacrity, please.....!

CCTV of Northern Ireland street moments before journalist Lyra McKee murderedLyra McKee was standing among a crowd and next to a police van when she was shot and killed on Thursday night. May she rest in peace.🙏 Religion, with its outdated beliefs and discrimination, the root of so much evil. RIP Lyra. Well, with the demise of peace in NI, there is nothing left that the Tories can break. May's 'mission from God to deliver brexit' has been pretty destructive. Britain, and the UK are broken beyond repair. Well done Conservatives 👏

New IRA and Saoradh face backlash over Lyra McKee murderKilling of journalist in Derry unites Sinn Féin and unionists against dissident republicans I doubt it. No one really cares but other news people. I'm sorry, but when saturated with fake news and free speech laws taken away it seems so trivial. I hope she had a good life and I feel awful for her family but as for it being 'shocking' news? No. Because you are fake news They should face backlash all the time not just because of this murder. People shouldn't cherry pick what they like about terrorist murders. Unemployed, uneducated ‘CRIMINAL’ propagandists!
