    Lord Norbury held back years as he was condemning a true Irish patriot who was completely innocent of the trunoednuo charges of treason to Ireland. Even Robert Emmet jailor William Wickham said had he been an Irishman he have unquestionably have joined in on Robert Emmet rebellion and resigned his position in British administration in Dublin Castle.

    Emmet was given unfair death by facist regime in Dublin castle

      The word and notion of fascism did not exist. Attempting to overthrow a government by force was illegal everywhere and still is. If he was to be killed at all then he should have been slain humanely. His death was barbaric.

      He was killed by spinless Orangemen who had unreasonable fear of Irish Roman Catholics Protestant Ascendancy are real triators to Ireland.

    Robert Emmet died man of action like Collins he probably like Michael Collins. He wasn’t in the country during the 1798 rebellion.
