creating a new threat to the police. And a trail of victims whose lives | :00:39. | :00:49. | |

have been shattered. He fell to the floor. I couldn't feel my legs. | :00:51. | :01:01. | |
brutal impact of vigilantes today. We challenge the gunmen themselves. | :01:01. | :01:07. | |
They tell spoth spot They have to understand this, is terrible. | :01:08. | :01:17. | |

What's going on in Derry at the moment is absolutely disgrace. | :01:18. | :01:28. | |
:01:28. | :01:57. | ||
Parts of this city are in the grip of fear. For four years, Derry's | :01:57. | :02:07. | |
estates are plagued by a vigilante group, in February, this year, they | :02:07. | :02:16. | |
claimed their first murder Vic dim. Andrew Allen was a 20-year-old | :02:16. | :02:22. | |
father of two from the Waterside area. He was on the radar of | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
republic and vigilantes for some time. Then one night in February, | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
this year, Andrew's enemies tracked him down to bun drana, where he was | :02:33. | :02:40. | |
living with his girlfriend Arlene. Arlene has never spoken publicly | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
before what happened that evening. We were lying in the bed, he was | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
playing the PlayStation, next hear I heard Big Bangs, I didn't know | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
what it was. The Big Bangs again, when I got out, I looked out the | :02:53. | :03:00. | |
window and there's this fellas, kicking and kicking at the door, | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
but I seen the gun. I said to Andi, there's a fella at the door with a | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
gun. He jumped out of bed, I was over beside the bedroom door, and | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
he shouted out to me to phone the guards. I had to run back to my | :03:16. | :03:22. | |
locker to get the phone, just as I was running back to the bedroom | :03:22. | :03:30. | |
door, the fella was kicking at the door. The next thing I looked over | :03:30. | :03:40. | |
:03:40. | :03:59. | ||
and I heard a smash and shots being And a... He fell to the floor. He | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
shouted at me "Arlene I can't feel my legs". I phoned the guards, and | :04:04. | :04:14. | |
there was blood he was where. So, he slid eever beside me. I phoned | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
the guards. I was shouting for help. I was trying to hold his head out | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
because the blood was coming out. I tried and tried, I couldn't get him | :04:26. | :04:34. | |
over on his back. Arlene ran to get help from a neighbour. They came | :04:34. | :04:40. | |
over running with me And the man helped me get a hand on his back. I | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
started giving him CPR. But I knew, because I had to pull | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
the blood out of his mouth and away from his nose. I tried for as long | :04:51. | :05:01. | |
:05:01. | :05:06. | ||
Minutes later, Andrew's mother, Donna had learnt what had happened. | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
I was sitting watching television and I got a phone call from my | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
sister to say that Andrew had been shot and within minutes she rang me | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
back to say they can't get a pulse, that Andrew's dead. I was here, and | :05:21. | :05:28. | |
I just fell to the ground. weeks later the killers reveal | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
themselves. RAAD said they had killed Andrew because he was a drug | :05:33. | :05:40. | |
dealer. Andrew was no big time drug dealer, Andrew never had a penny, | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
he was always borrowing money off people. Donna says Andrew was an | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
innocent victim. Taken from his family in cold blood. REPORTER: Can | :05:49. | :05:57. | |
you explain what it is like to have that taken away from your family? | :05:57. | :06:01. | |
Devastation. Complete devastation. So it is. | :06:01. | :06:08. | |
Like I've lost a son, and they've lost a brother and my two | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
grandchildren, they've lost their father now, they have to go the | :06:11. | :06:17. | |
rest of their life now without their father. When you hear your | :06:17. | :06:23. | |
grandson saying, he's six, to say that, he misses his daddy, and why | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
did these bad men do this. I have no answer for that, because I don't | :06:28. | :06:34. | |
know why. Andrew's family say they know who killed them. Everybody | :06:34. | :06:40. | |
knows who done it, the guards know who has done it, the PSNI knows who | :06:40. | :06:45. | |
done it. But four months later, the killers have still not been caught. | :06:45. | :06:51. | |
I don't know how they sleep at night. They have no conscience, and | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
the people... They've wives, you know what I mean like, and they've | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
mothers as well. They've got to understand, that this, this is | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
terrible, what's going on in Derry at the moment is absolutely a | :07:05. | :07:10. | |
disgrey. Since their formation, four years ago, RAAD have carried | :07:10. | :07:18. | |
out dozens of shootings and beatings, but Andrew Allen was the | :07:18. | :07:24. | |
first murder, it brought crowds on to the city, calling on RAAD to | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
stop. But RAAD responded with defiance. Within a month the group | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
unleashed a new form of ruthlessness, forcing parents to | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
participate of the shooting of their own parents. I'm still | :07:37. | :07:43. | |
stressed over it, and probably will be for the rest of my life. Ciaran | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
McFadden says his son and nephew Sean were among a group who got | :07:48. | :07:53. | |
into a fight with a well known RAAD member. A few days later, RAAD | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
presented Ciaran and his family with an appalling dilemma. I got | :07:58. | :08:04. | |
the message to be sent to my conto Creggan to get shot. And between | :08:04. | :08:12. | |
that, Sean was sent word through a third party, that if he didn't | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
present himself, that he would be shot. Ciaran is a former member of | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
the provisional member of the IRA and a well known figure. But for | :08:23. | :08:28. | |
him and his family, it seemed the only option was to meet the demand. | :08:28. | :08:34. | |
If.I said come and get him, they would have put a pipe bomb under my | :08:34. | :08:41. | |
car, or under my wife, killed my wife, me, my Sean or anybody | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
visiting. Word spread throughout the Creggan, | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
that RAAD were ordering parents to bring their parents to be shot. | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
That evening, people in the city again rallied in an effort to stop | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
the shootings. We are here for dissency and justice and peace. We | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
want to say no to RAAD. This expression of public anger, didn't | :09:05. | :09:11. | |
stop RAAD. We were sitting, a knock came to the door, about 10.30pm, | :09:11. | :09:16. | |
last man, take your son to the back of the garden square. The back of | :09:17. | :09:23. | |
my head, maybe they're going to scare him. I really thought this. | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
So I said do you really want to do this. He said let get it over and | :09:27. | :09:34. | |
done with. At 11pm, Ciaran brought his son a back street area in | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
Derry's Bogside. His cousin Sean was already there. Ciaran agreed to | :09:40. | :09:48. | |
show us what happened next. This is where Ciaran was sat and cousin | :09:48. | :09:55. | |
Sean. I was here for 15-20 minutes, I saw a guy stick his head. I | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
walked down, and I said guys, get this over and done with. They ran | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
past me, Ciaran was standing here, against the rail ilgs, Sean was | :10:05. | :10:11. | |
standing a few feet away. They came up behind, shot Ciaran in the left | :10:11. | :10:16. | |
calf and shot Sean twice in the ankles. Sean came through, no great | :10:16. | :10:22. | |
damage, and Ciaran is left with bullet wound in his calf. How far | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
were you. A few feet away. Towards the square, walking towards them on | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
the phone for an ambulance. So you literally phone the ambulance while | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
they're being shot? Yeah. Is that not crazy? It is crazy, but we live | :10:37. | :10:43. | |
in a crazy society. Do you know who they are is this I know. Two months | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
later, Ciaran and his family are tormented by the decision. How can | :10:48. | :10:54. | |
a father stand here and see his son getting shot. It is eating me away. | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
People ask me why didn't I go to the police. We don't live in a | :10:59. | :11:02. | |
normal society. I could have gone to the police, I could be burnt, | :11:02. | :11:07. | |
blew up, living in fear, I don't want to live like that. City of | :11:07. | :11:13. | |
culture, city of fear! So, what effect is all this having on Derry | :11:13. | :11:20. | |
now. Sn The impact of RAAD on Derry, can't be underestimated. Since | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
we've been here, we've met young men and their families who are | :11:24. | :11:30. | |
living constantly in fear. One of them agreed to be interviewed. His | :11:30. | :11:35. | |
words are spoken by an actor to protect his identity. He's also | :11:35. | :11:43. | |
asked us not to use his real name. So we've called him John. Well I'm | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
under threat because I was dabbleling in a bit of drugs, it | :11:46. | :11:52. | |
was not major, I was making �100 a week, even to do it, to feed his | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
own habit. This brought John to the attention of RAAD now he is living | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
in fear, since threatened by the vigilantes. But John refuses to | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
leave Derry, and now lives in a permanent state of terror, waiting | :12:04. | :12:10. | |
for the moment when RAAD will attack. I've machetes, swords, | :12:10. | :12:16. | |
anything pointy on them, I move house, every three months, I'm | :12:16. | :12:22. | |
moving today actually. I have drop boards made up, alarms off police | :12:22. | :12:27. | |
from the door, keep the light up, sitting up until 4 or 5 in the | :12:27. | :12:37. | |
:12:37. | :12:37. | ||
morning. John says living this way has left him mentallytor tuerd. | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
was going to kill myself, but I don't want to do that. I have two | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
kids. We spoke to his mother who didn't want to be identified. | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
not only what they're doing to the young fellas, they're doing the | :12:50. | :12:56. | |
families. They'retor tuerd mothers, at the minute, I'm one of them. | :12:56. | :13:03. | |
Like John, his mother spends each night in her home. I take my | :13:03. | :13:08. | |
medication in the morning, that calms me down. I have to wait to my | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
next fix before my hands stop shaking, my body stops shaking. | :13:12. | :13:18. | |
is clear that John's mother is also being terrorised by RAAD's threats. | :13:18. | :13:23. | |
My worst fear is they pull up near somewhere in a car, van, getting | :13:23. | :13:30. | |
him into it, taking him away andtor touring him and murdering him, and | :13:30. | :13:36. | |
throwing his body away so I don't have it. What I might say, I would | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
go and stand at the bottom of the grave and talk to my son, than they | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
put their hands on him. Everywhere you go, people are talking about | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
RAAD so who are they and what are police doing to tackle them? They | :13:51. | :13:58. | |
are led by two former Provisional IRA members of some standing, and | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
the organisation, exists, almost exclusively of form era are a | :14:02. | :14:06. | |
members, with some new recruit, who weren't involved in that | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
organisation. What size of membership have this | :14:09. | :14:16. | |
group? I don't think it is helpful for me to get into range of numbers. | :14:16. | :14:23. | |
But I assure you they are a small group. The pist pist may know who | :14:23. | :14:31. | |
they are, but - PSNI may know, but there are four murders. We haven't | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
been as good as we should have been, and I'm disappoint. We have, | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
currently another man before the court in relation to RAAD-relate | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
actively, but it is not good enough. So, we recognise that, and we | :14:45. | :14:49. | |
recognise we need to do more. means more money, more manpower, | :14:49. | :14:56. | |
and more resources. Including, a new appeal Ejiofor information. | :14:56. | :15:02. | |
have spoken to the Chief Constable personally at length around RAAD | :15:02. | :15:06. | |
and I can assure you we are going to do everything we can, as an | :15:06. | :15:11. | |
organisation, to tackle RAAD in the coming weeks and months. But we | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
will be more successful if the community give us the information | :15:13. | :15:19. | |
that I need. I would urge them, urge them, please for the sake of | :15:19. | :15:24. | |
your community and Derry, help us to make RAAD go away, and give us | :15:24. | :15:30. | |
that information. The police appear to be oping the -- uping the | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
offensive but help is low. It means many those under threat look | :15:35. | :15:41. | |
elsewhere for help. Most of the meet in the community centre, | :15:41. | :15:48. | |
called the Rose Mount resource centre. It secured funding from the | :15:48. | :15:51. | |
International Red Cross, for its work with threat victims. I went | :15:51. | :15:58. | |
there to meet the man for many of those in RAAD's hit list as their | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
only hope. Since we began regarding our statistics in June last year, | :16:02. | :16:08. | |
we've dealt with up until today, 112 cases, for the individuals | :16:08. | :16:14. | |
coming in it here, it is seriously stressful. They're really concerned, | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
they think that their family member is going to be shot or hurt, | :16:19. | :16:26. | |
certainly. Within hours. Hugh is no ordinary community workers, he is a | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
former member of the Provisional IRA, and several of RAAD's members | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
are his former comrades. It gives them a level of RAAD that few have. | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
Whenever we are contacted by somebody under threat, then we | :16:40. | :16:47. | |
would contact RAAD. You then deal directly with RAAD? Yeah. So how do | :16:47. | :16:52. | |
they rationalise, shooting people, and acting in what many people say | :16:52. | :16:58. | |
is a barbaric fashion? They rationalise it easy, they're saying | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
they're preventing these people selling drugs to children in our | :17:02. | :17:08. | |
community. That's how they rationalise it. The Mubarakity of | :17:08. | :17:13. | |
their actions, I don't think they rationalise at all. Hugh's contact | :17:13. | :17:17. | |
with RAAD makes his work controversial, some accused him and | :17:17. | :17:23. | |
the centre, of being too close to the group, and as acting as RAAD's | :17:23. | :17:28. | |
messenger. But he says his purpose is simple. Our soul function is to | :17:28. | :17:34. | |
shop those shootings. Where we are intervened and unsuccessful, we | :17:34. | :17:38. | |
would be angry at ourselves that maybe we could have done something | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
else, that may have persuaded RAAD to prevent the shooting. Brady's | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
work takes place behind the scenes. There are those that believe the | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
best way to respond to RAAD is to challenge the group publicly, and | :17:51. | :17:56. | |
directly. For three months, one group of women has been at the | :17:56. | :18:01. | |
forefront of this campaign. They call themselves Move On. They | :18:01. | :18:09. | |
agreed to meet me. How much support to RAAD were other groups who carry | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
on punishment attacks, how much support do they have? RAAD do not | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
have the support of the majority of people of our communities. They | :18:19. | :18:24. | |
don't have any type of following, that it shows any type of | :18:24. | :18:30. | |
credibility. The women of Move On aren't the only ones challenging | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
RAAD publicly. Attacking RAAD's credibility has been a tactic of | :18:33. | :18:38. | |
the police, inity battle for hearts and minds. Well, you know, I don't | :18:38. | :18:46. | |
see any big time drug dealers, being targeted by RAAD. This is a | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
criminal gang who brutalise and shoot people. If you fall out with | :18:49. | :18:55. | |
them in a pub or street, they'll exile you and order you out of the | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
city. Some people have been allow today return, only when they paid | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
thousands of pounds, sometimes to RAAD. Or, maybe, RAAD have taken | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
their motor vehicle off them. This is pure criminality that is | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
inflicting horrible effects on the community. We want to challenge | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
RAAD ourselves about their violent activities. So we made contact with | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
the group, through an intermediary. We put a number of questions to | :19:22. | :19:27. | |
RAAD. They supplied us with a series of statements and | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
photographs. We began by asking RAAD why they were shooting people. | :19:31. | :19:41. | |
:19:41. | :19:42. | ||
RAAD why they were shooting people. They alleged are drug dealers. They | :19:42. | :19:52. | |
:19:52. | :20:13. | ||
RAAD believes it has support in this community. So does it? And if | :20:13. | :20:18. | |
it does, where does that support it does, where does that support | :20:18. | :20:25. | |
come from? While filming in Derry, we found people reluctant people | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
they support RAAD until this happened. Ten days ago, police | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
investigating RAAD mounted a search operation within cegdepan. Within | :20:33. | :20:40. | |
minutes a crowd gathered outside. Then this. | :20:40. | :20:44. | |
Bomb. Around the corner, a police vehicle was hit by a blast bomb. | :20:44. | :20:54. | |
:20:54. | :21:01. | ||
So what do people here, think about RAAD? I support RAAD fully. I'd | :21:01. | :21:06. | |
probably be lifted for saying that, I support them, because I can see | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
what people do with drugs. Do RAAD have support? Only people are | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
afraid to say they pour RAAD because you're looked at as a bad | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
person. My heart and soul support RAAD. I would trust them. If my | :21:19. | :21:24. | |
grandson was involved in drugs, I would go straight to them and I | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
know they'd sort him out. Not shooting him but in other ways, | :21:28. | :21:34. | |
that's the last resort. This woman wasn't the only one here who agreed | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
to be interviewed by RAAD. Shortly afterwards, we spotted Gary | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
Donnelly, a hardline Republican, opposed to the peace process. We | :21:43. | :21:47. | |
asked him whether RAAD has support in the area. There's without doubt | :21:47. | :21:53. | |
support for RAAD in these communities. People, some people in | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
these communities would see RAAD at the forefront of the battle against | :21:58. | :22:02. | |
drugs. Could you agree with shooting people, that's barbaric? | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
When people look at that, it is a form of justice. It is barbaric, it | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
is not nice, but the drug problem in this community, there's people | :22:11. | :22:17. | |
who want swift just dis, and that's the way they look at it. Shortly | :22:17. | :22:27. | |
:22:27. | :22:37. | ||
But these scenes in the Creggan were about something deeper and | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
more fundamental than RAAD. Police is not welcome in our community | :22:41. | :22:48. | |
this. Is not a normal police force that you would see in Ireland or | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
England, this is a paramilitary police force. RAAD claimed | :22:53. | :22:58. | |
responsibility for a blast bomb on the police. This is the first time | :22:58. | :23:04. | |
RAAD attacked on the pist pist, it put the group on an I - PSNI and | :23:04. | :23:09. | |
put it on another level. When RAAD emerged, it had no political agenda, | :23:09. | :23:15. | |
but of course, in recent years, RAAD are in conflict with the PSNI, | :23:15. | :23:20. | |
they're hunted by the PSNI, and denounced now by Sinn Fein, and all | :23:20. | :23:30. | |
:23:30. | :23:30. | ||
that. I think it creates the potential at least an overlap of | :23:30. | :23:35. | |
interest with RAAD and people called dissident Republicans, one | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
question is how will that develop, in the next couple of years. | :23:40. | :23:44. | |
asked RAAD through the intermediary, if they work with dissent? They | :23:44. | :23:49. | |
refused to comment. What's clear is that RAAD is a new faction in an | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
already divided Republican family in Derry. So, where is Sinn Fein in | :23:54. | :23:59. | |
all of this and what is it doing about RAAD? We are voicing our | :23:59. | :24:05. | |
opposition to what they do. We have always said they have no meaningful | :24:05. | :24:12. | |
role to play with life in Derry. We highlighted what RAAD is about. We | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
said they're under Sinn Fein, under the peace process, and called on | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
the community to voice their opposition, to show their | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
opposition, be it in public demonstrations or co-operateing | :24:21. | :24:25. | |
with the PSNI. But how realistic are Sinn Fein's calls to co-operate | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
with the police? Sinn Fein is in a difficult position, it is their | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
line, publicly and I understand, privately to tell people, you have | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
problems with RAAD or generally, with illegal, or antisocial | :24:38. | :24:44. | |
behaviour, to go to the PSNI. That is not always welcome advice. So to | :24:44. | :24:50. | |
tell people to go to PSNI appear in court and give evidence against | :24:50. | :24:54. | |
particulars, that's easy to say, but difficult for people to do on | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
the ground. RAAD it seems has become the focus, of a battle for | :24:58. | :25:04. | |
the very soul of the community, within Republicanism in Derry. | :25:04. | :25:07. | |
Feign are attempting to get together, you know, people in the | :25:07. | :25:12. | |
community, many of whom will be associated with Sinn Fein, to form | :25:12. | :25:17. | |
community groups and give a voice who are oppose today RAAD. How | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
successful that is, remains to be seen., we got a phenomenonan now, | :25:22. | :25:28. | |
where community groups are emerging, some hostile ter raed, and some in | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
effect, defending RAAD or the dissident Republicans or both, so | :25:32. | :25:39. | |
you have a community which is split. What is the answer to RAAD? We've | :25:39. | :25:45. | |
learnted on the ground, quiet diplomacy has been going on. There | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
are conversations taking place, these have been taking place | :25:49. | :25:55. | |
formally and informally over a period of time. We have reacheded | :25:55. | :25:58. | |
understandings. Seamus is a social worker, and believes there are | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
circumstances in which RAAD will scale back their activities. RAAD | :26:03. | :26:07. | |
said if there was some other means of dealing effectively with the | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
drugs problem they would no longer be in existence. If we can get a | :26:11. | :26:17. | |
strong community voice in place, that says "we will take | :26:17. | :26:25. | |
responsibility for dealing with the issues, and no-one else, ""RAAD | :26:25. | :26:29. | |
will listen. There are people to take on that role. The women said | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
when it comes to takeling the social problems and drugs, they | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
have more to offer than RAAD. Throughout Northern Ireland there's | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
drug problems, alcohol problems, misuse of prescription drugs, we're | :26:40. | :26:45. | |
to different here in this city. But young people have to grow up, they | :26:46. | :26:50. | |
make mistakes, but they have to learn from them and being shot | :26:50. | :26:56. | |
won't learn them. Are you naive, that some people would say you'll | :26:56. | :27:00. | |
never solve the drug problem, if you're going to try and do it as a | :27:00. | :27:05. | |
community, there are a million xaxs it hasn't worked. Do you feel you | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
will make a difference? We wouldn't be here if we couldn't make a | :27:08. | :27:12. | |
difference. The community to us is everybody getting involved, the | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
whole community getting together. We are not superheroes, it won't | :27:16. | :27:19. | |
happen overnight. We need everybody together as one, regardless of who | :27:19. | :27:24. | |
you are, what you are, where you're fro, we want everybody to come | :27:24. | :27:29. | |
together, unite and sort out the problem together. What are your | :27:29. | :27:35. | |
hopes for the future, in terms of RAAD and Derry? My hope is that | :27:35. | :27:40. | |
RAAD disband and all other armed vigilante groups. Disband and | :27:40. | :27:47. | |
disarm, and go away, and let us be the community that we want to be. | :27:47. | :27:54. | |
So, will RAAD soften its position So, will RAAD soften its position | :27:54. | :28:04. | |
:28:04. | :28:11. | ||
in response to these calls? We It is a sign that RAAD has no | :28:11. | :28:15. | |
intention of going away. It seems that there will be further | :28:15. | :28:24. | |
suffering at the hands of the vigilantes. I still wait for that | :28:24. | :28:34. | |
text or phone call, from Andrew. 24 years of age, a young man. Starting | :28:34. | :28:44. | |
:28:44. | :28:45. | ||
to turn his life around. And they murder him. Where's the justice? | :28:45. | :28:50. | |
RAAD are a relic of repian parliamentarianism, apart from the | :28:50. | :28:56. | |
misery of their victims, it is hard to tell what they are trying to | :28:56. | :29:01. |
