He was a prominent figure in the irish easter rising of 1916 and the british shot him in a chair while he was dying without trial.

James Connolly was Glaswegian? No, I thought he was from Edinburgh, and I think you might be getting him mixed up with John McLean.

Moron.

James Connolly was born in Edinburgh of Irish parents. John McLean was the Glaswegian socialist who was imprisoned during the First World War for activities the Brits saw as dangerous - just a few demands for worker's rights, and a comment about a gun being a weapon with a working man on either end of it...

Teabaggy, for all your vaunted uni education, you're as thick as ****. That's basic knowledge for any Scot, never mind one with plastic-Irish connections. Two minutes "research" using Google and you wouldn't have looked like a fool, yet again...

Unlucky!

I meant to write glasgow, It was an honest mistake.

He dserved to be canonized.

When exactly was he canonized?

You really need to start attempting to improve your grammar - and your spelling for that matter! Its no wonder very few people believe you have received any form of education

He was cannonised. You just said they shot him...
