Larne is a shitty drab town on the east coast of Northern Ireland full of Hoods and Millies. People only really go there to catch the ferry to Scotland.
The former mayor of Larne Danny O'Connor was having a discussion with DUP councillor Bobby McKee about a planning application. The discussion got a bit heated and Mr O'Connor called Mr McKee "stumpy" now that's comedy.
McKee had been a colonel in the UVF (Protestant paramilitaries) and lost his legs in a car bomb in 1974. I would have said something like "stand up and say that to my face stumpy" or "you don't have a leg to stand on. "
McKee, a founding member of the Northern Ireland Amputees Association says hes moved on and has made positive contributions to both sides of the community. Moved on huh? I bet you were wheeled.
He also said "I lost two legs as a result of the Troubles, it is hard to take when someone calls you stumpy." You were a fucking terrorist yerself, what can you expect stumpy? listen to the hard luck story, how many knee caps did you shoot out to make it to Colonel? ever hear of karma?
The UVF (Ulster Volunteer Force) were one of the worse on the Protestant side excuse me if I don't have much sympathy, I also don't feel sorry for pedos who are locked up and unable to molest children.
O'Connor has apologised for his remark and McKee doesn't want to take it any further but will no doubt look very smug and will rub his stumps when he talks to O'Connor in the future.
"Stumpys just another word for no more legs to lose, good enough for me and Bobby McKee."
