Hi. In text it was said he served 19 years but it doesn't make any sense to me. He was arrested and convicted for bombing that happened in 1973 and released in 1989. That's 16 years including the time he was on the run (i.e not in prison). Can somebody clarify this to me.

[edit] Hunger strike

Can anyone confirm how many days he actually spent on hunger strike? Although they aren't exactly a non-partisan source, FAIR have him listed as 205 days with the 170 force feedings. However Sinn Fein has him listed at 60 days. I'm more inclined to go with the 60 unless there's a very reliable source for the 205, but I can't imagine why FAIR would use an inflated figure.

[edit] New image

When the new assembly update their website and profiles we should update that image because the one we have new makes Gearóid look like some crazed bomber!--Vintagekits 20:08, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Well he is! ;) We can't use the images from the website/profile, we need free images. One Night In Hackney₃₀₃ 20:10, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
