Fawkes was a man who gave his life in an attempt to revise the
injustice that was done to the Catholics by the Anglican rulers</span></font></blockquote></div><font size="2">Sure
the Roman Catholics suffered some discrimination but not one single
Roman Catholic was burned at the stake from the time of Elizabeth to
the recent accession of King James of Scotland and that any executions
of Romans in Elizabeth's reign were in connection with plots to
assassinate her by Jesuits and their followers.</font></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="2">Marcus you
conveniently overlook the hard fact that well over a hundred innocent
Protestants were burned alive during the reign of the abominable Mary
Tudor. Elizabeth was much more tolerant of Roman Catholics than her
predecessor had been on Protestants. Same oppressive conduct took place
in Scotland under the Regency of Marie de Guise where unfortunates such
as Patrick Hamilton and George Wishart suffered this awful fate.</font></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="2">Prior
to Elizabeth Henry VIII had to put down a rebellion in the North "The
Pilgrimage of Faith" which attempted to restore Roman Catholicism in
England.</font></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="2">I defy you to name a single plot or act of terrorism from the Protestant side during the reign of Bloody Mary.</font><div class="im">

</span></font></blockquote></div><font size="2">OK
then what equality was there under the ghastly Mary Tudor ? James 2nd
was subsequently overthrown for attempting to re-impose Roman
Catholicism on England and Scotland and restoring The Divine Right of
Kings over Parliaments.</font><div class="im"><font size="2"><br></font><blockquote type="cite"><font size="2"><span style="border-collapse: separate; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">It's takes much harassment until the harassed person resorts to "terror"</span></font></blockquote>
</div><font size="2">English Protestants took no such actions during Mary's tyrannical repressionst.</font></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="2">Scots
Protestants on the other hand rose up in rebellion against de Guise and
Cardinal David Beaton after Wishart ind Hamilton were burned alive.
Beaton watched Hamilton's murder from a window in his palace before
going in to baptise the his bastard daughter by his main mistress. They
won in the end thank God. Roman Catholics now seek to canonise Beaton a
murderer, fornicator, and murderer.<br></font></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="2">I do concede that
Irish Roman Catholics were justified in their several rebellions due to
the extreme persecution they suffered for centuries.</font></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><font size="2">Without
Collins' organised terrorism Ireland would probably still remain
British yet the creator of The Free State was himself murdered by
terrorists of his own Faith. Collins devoted his attacks to  military
and police targets the IRA hit British civilian populations.</font></div><font style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" size="2"><br></font><font style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" color="#888888"><div>
