== Ciarán Doherty - Volunteer, Provisional Irish Republican Army==
Fuair Ciarán Ó Dochartaigh bás mar chuid den Stailc Ocrais i 1981 i gcampa príosúin na Ceise Fada, taobh amuigh de Bhéal Feirste. Bhí sé 25 bliain d'aois.

[edit] Sticking to facts, not POV

I've cut the highly POV stuff and left just the basic facts. It's laughable that this person refers to a TD as being a member of the Irish Government. There's no chance whatsoever that this guy would have been appointed a minister, not simply because he was in prison, but because as a republican (certainly in those days) he wouldn't have recognised the legitimacy of the twenty-six county state.

Amach leat, níl fáilte romhat anseo! Out with ye, you're not welcome here!

Doc I think he is dead now with a name like that you think you would have known if someone is dead or not *smile* BigDunc 14:49, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
If you'd check the history you'd realise the material he removed was about a third party. Look before you leap ;) One Night In Hackney303 17:02, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
