Yes. It has always bugged me that instead of singing about an event that 
occurred (in this instance) about 85 years ago, Irish terrorists (on 
both sides) don't instead follow the shining example of their perceived 
adversaries and issue wordy press releases many years after the event. 
"It is with very deep regret that the Ministry of Defence confirms that 
the operation resulted in substantial collateral damage... etc" It would 
be so much more civilised.

Kevin Barry was a teenager when the British Army executed him. To the 
best of my knowledge he didn't kill any children. Given the behaviour of 
certain recent governments, this appears to have been a bad thing.
