Yes...

I cant believe the news today
Oh, I cant close my eyes and make it go away
How long...
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long...

cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...

Broken bottles under childrens feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But I wont heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall

Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday bloody sunday...)
(allright lets go!)

And the battles just begun
Theres many lost, but tell me who has won
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart

Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday

How long...
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long...

cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...
Tonight...

Sunday, bloody sunday (tonight)
Tonight
Sunday, bloody sunday (tonight)
(come get some!)

Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Wipe your tears away
I wipe your tears away
(sunday, bloody sunday)
I wipe your blood shot eyes
(sunday, bloody sunday)

Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
(here I come!)

And its true we are immune
When fact is fiction and tv reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die

The real battle yet begun (sunday, bloody sunday)
To claim the victory jesus won (sunday, bloody sunday)
On...

Sunday bloody sunday
Sunday bloody sunday...

[From wikipedia]

On Sunday January 30, 1972, in an incident since known as Bloody Sunday, 14 men and boys were shot dead (one of whom died 4 months later) and 13 others were wounded by British paratroopers after a Northern Ireland Civil Rights Association march in the Bogside area of the city of Derry, Northern Ireland.

The march was organized by Derry Stormont MP Ivan Cooper to protest against internment without trial of Irishmen, predominantly Catholic, in Northern Ireland.

Critics of the action asserted, as did journalists covering the event, that those shot were all unarmed.

Today is the 34th anniversary of this event, and its struggles still go on today.

I dont think so......You should definitely check out 'Hard Boiled'. They shoot guns in every scene pretty much...haha.

Unfortunately, I had to work. I've gotten a few of my clients into soccer and I was able to catch most of the first half and chunks of the second but I didn't get to really pay attention.

I was lucky enough to find this hilight clip, so now I can watch Twellman's first hattrick whenever I want! And when I say "first," I mean I'm really hoping for a second, third, etc....
