Lets see...
If I went to the UK and said,
"The Queen is a skank bitch whore who should be stripped and set out on the street unemployed and destitute... Punished for years upon years of living off the sweat and wages of the working class"
How quickly would I be deported?
If I went on television there and said that the terrible treatment the British have engaged in for decades and decades is completely responsible for the necessity of the IRA's action in winning freedom from the tyrannical rule of the British I suspect I may be deported.
If I went in to your house and spoke ill to your father, spit in your momS food and shagged your sister... You might kick me out of your house.
In the U.S., we are all kings of our own castles and Morgan is trying to shag our great, great, grandfather.
Throw that ass out.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 17208041 No you wouldnt Associated Press Published: Wednesday, Aug. 16 1989 12:00 a.m. MDT [ link to www.deseretnews.com] Martin Galvin, an American lawyer who supports the outlawed Irish Republican Army, was put aboard a plane to Washington early Wednesday after he was deported for violating a ban that bars him from the United Kingdom, a Home Office spokesman said.
Galvin, 39, was arrested in Northern Ireland Tuesday during a news conference he called in the Roman Catholic sector of Londonderry, about 80 miles northwest of Belfast.He said he had been in Northern Ireland for three days to mark the 20th anniversary Monday of the deployment of British troops in the province and to challenge what he described as the illegal ban on his entry.
The director of the New York-based Irish Northern Aid Committee, a fund-raising group of the IRA's political wing, Sinn Fein, he was put on a scheduled 5 a.m. flight to Washington at Brize Norton Royal Air Force base, about 75 miles west of London, the spokesman said. He was flown to London by police after his arrest.
Galvin was indefinitely banned from entering the United Kingdom in July 1984 after the Home Office said he openly supported terrorism. In a speech in County Atrim in April 1984, Galvin said he was "encouraged" by the murder of a British soldier the previous night, according to the Home Office.
In a press statement, Sinn Fein President Gerry Adams said Galvin's arrest is "ironic testimony to British repression, which relies upon exclusion orders, the denial of human rights and censorship as well as military force to maintain its presence here."
Police have kept a lookout for Galvin at Republican marches and rallies in Northern Ireland for several years, and according to the British Broadcasting Corp., he has made four trips to the province.
In 1984, a riot broke out when police attempted to arrest Galvin at a Belfast march and rally. One man was killed after being struck by a plastic bullet fired by police.
