Doubts about the neutrality of the article pt 1.[edit]

Adam Busby is virtually unknown in Scotland and the wider world.

His group's actions are limited to petty vandalism and malicious mischief.

He does not speak Gaelic and certainly does not hold 'legendary status.'

Doubts about the neutrality of the article pt 2.[edit]

There are several points I'd like to bring up with this article. Firstly can the rumours about his "conspiracy charges" and "extradition" battles with the UK be verified? Is there evidence in the media or the authorities in the UK or Ireland that can support this.

Furthermore what British targets in the USA have been hit? There are tens of thousands of 'British' Targets such as BP petrol stations, commercial buildings for banks like HSBC and Barclays, even Verizon Wireless is part British (Vodaphone). This isn't even taking into account the hundreds of thousands of British ex-pats living out there. Again please provide evidence.

The whole phrase "Maoist revolutionary" needs to be taken with a pinch of salt. Any idiot with an axe to grind can call themselves a revolutionary or a maoist or a marxist which in the end does more of a disservice to real revolutionaries like Che Guevara.

Also the Scottish National Party, while definetly in the political main stream still is a party dedicated to the peaceful and amicable seperatation of Scotland from the United Kingdom.

Finally there rumours that Adam Busby tricks youths into doing most of these stunts. For example there are plausible claims that he pursuaded a 17 year old to post the causic soda to the Blairs.

This post needs some serious modification to make it neutral or if that fails deletion. This is because it does a serious disservice to the vast majority of pro-independence Scots who prefer to campaign via peaceful methods. Pudduh 21:50, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
