John Mac Bride

Spotted posted around Dublin city centre, the text reads John Mac Bride murdered by British imperialists May 5th 1916. When I see something like that quite frankly I'm impressed by the dedication that goes into printing posters and pasting them up. Their choice of patriot, not for them the popular choices like Connolly or Pearse no they went for the more obscure McBride, is also intriguing as is the fact that the posters have no other information on them, they're not an ad for a political party or any other group. You've got to feel that there's a really interesting story behind it all.
