1) Williamson and Skillion got 11 and 7 years hard labour and Redmond Barry said he would have given Ned 20, all over BS incident and with no proof.
2) Sure Ned and the others could have lived different lives, been straight laced, much like the farmers of the Greta region who lost their land for no reason.
3) If the crown had of hanged Ned for horse stealing there would be no issues. But they didn't and so there are.
4) Maybe if the English had treated the Irish better there might not have been so much trouble.
1- NO proof...You yourself have made a list of speculative unsubstantiated allegations toward police, but complain of others doing the same.
2- Or ended up with a much better life than the Greta farmers, just like brother John Kelly achieved...but that doesn't compute with you.
3- Correct, not hung for horse thieving , shot 28 times and hung for murder of three people.
4- English?...Earlier you said the problem Irish Kellys had was with the Irish police....you even corrected someone on it.
...You Aussies have to stop blaming everything on the English....
...The Kelly's were Irish, police were Irish....
1) Normal people who would comment on how fine the new police looked, and made comment that the town was more peaceful
hardly seem liked criminals that bare the brunt of police attention.
The Kellys wore police uniforms to rob the bank in Jerilderie...any people who thought they seemed uncriminal during such a brazen criminal act,
are not 'normal' people like you claim.
