YOU ARE A LIAR curt.
There was NO mention of that point before my first post on this topic! - - - Chapter and Verse, if you please ! - - - or offer the site an apology, if you have the backbone.!.. - - - - - -If Constance had heard her Comrades being shot one by one from her cell and 'pulled every string available' to her, to save her own life, then, only when she was SURE she had 'escaped', did she make her hypocritical remark : pretending she would rather have died for her Cause!. If she genuinely felt so bad about living when the Men died, it surely would have been the 'decent thing' to shoot herself with one of her German bullets - having saved the British Army from wasting a good English one! The more you display your ignorance, the bigger the Shadow grows on her Reputation. But still, in spite of all the Shadows, she displayed more courage than you will ever dream of in a hundred sorry lifetimes, so apologise,for goodness sake, and let her Rest in Peace now.

There was indignance raised about selling such as national treasure before you hijacked the thread with this little gem creaky: "She could have had the decency to shoot herself!"

THE POINT that amuses me is that amidst all the indignant guff issued by the 'little irelanders' on this Thread --- there has not been a single peep of Moralistic Outrage that this 'Priceless Irish Photograph' is being flogged off to the highest bidder and will probably end up is some museum "on the nicest street in Philadelphia". - - - Such an ignominious end for such a Treasured Momento!

ANOTHER BITE! Yip-pee! - - - Much as we are enjoying hooking these boring dopey flounders, we must get back to the point of the Post: I wonder how much the Photograph of the Lady with the 'Brit Status and 'Toxic System of Values' fetched, when it was sold?

Although towntroll has used his brit troll status to obscure his pathetic and failed defense of his toxic system of values, perhaps he's also abandoned the rambling, monotonous works of fiction he post.
