Gerry Adams: "Saya meninggalkan pengadilan Belfast, tempat saya dipang...

"Saya meninggalkan pengadilan Belfast, tempat saya dipanggil untuk menjawab dakwaan yang sangat lemah, kemudian dipecat. Anda relatif aman di daerah semacam itu di komunitas Irlandia, tetapi pergi ke pusat kota Belfast bagi saya berbahaya. Penampilan saya di pengadilan telah diiklankan dengan baik oleh polisi. Saya pikir itu terlalu kebetulan bahwa orang-orang yang menembak saya hanya lewat."

--- Gerry Adams

Versi Bahasa Inggris

I was leaving the Belfast court, where I had been called to answer a very flimsy charge, later dismissed. You're relatively safe in such areas in the Irish community, but to go to downtown Belfast for me is dangerous. My appearance in court had been well advertised by the police. I think it was too much of a coincidence that the people who shot me were just passing by.
