While i'm sorry it happened to them a part of me can't help thinking now you know what it feels like.

Oh **** off. Really? Not surprised you said something like this to be honest. The IRA(thugs) have nothing to do with this. And although the IRA did some ****ing awful things, their circumstances were pretty dire prior and during the troubles. That doesn't justify what they did though, nor does anything justify what the British did in the North either. And it has nothing to do with this event. These were innocent people running a marathon. Mostly Irish Americans, some Irish people who recently emigrated, some actual Irish citizens over for the week. Don't pin the(modern) IRA on the entire Irish diaspora. On either side of the sea.
