This article should point out that the IPLO forced him to resign from the IRSP's leadership at gunpoint.

Jim left the IRSP in October 1985 following the failure of the IRSP leadership to gain the cooperation of those in the INLA, when they refused to accept the primacy of politics in the movement. The IPLO were not in existence at that time, they didn't come into existance until late 1986. Jimmy Brown did approach Jim Lane not knowing he was no longer in the IRSP. there was no gun approached and a verbal confrontation took place


Sorry for error, Last sentence above should read "There was no gun produced, but a verbal confrontation did take place."
