Aye ano who Bobby Sands was? what a shitey threadBobby Sands was an elected representative who genuinely made the ultimate sacrifice for the betterment of others.
His was a conscious and moral choice to highlight the issue of fundamental human rights and the protected characteristics contained within.
The right to life is one of these protected characteristics, yet successive governments chose to forfeit this privilige (by proxy), by choosing to engage in warfare.......many of which have since been recognised as illegal and hostile acts against sovereign territories.
The poppy is a bastardised attempt to negate these acts and to minimise each governments responsibility in the engagement of war.
The poppy is a symbol of doomed youth and of the slaughter.
It does not recognise the INNOCENT civilians who fell victim to the military and therefore - it has no place on my breast
