The British Army Murdered 13 People, No One Was Prosecuted

On January 30th, 1972, the British army shot and killed 13 people in the city of Derry/Londonderry. The soldiers had fired into a crowd of civil rights protestors, and yet somehow, no one was prosecuted. So how did the British government conspire to cover up the events, to protect themselves and their soldiers? What is the true story of Bloody Sunday?

  • The use of the Bloody Sunday drumbeat in the intro was a lovely touch
  • I now live right around the corner from where Bloody Sunday happened. My granddad as a 24 year old at the time freaked out when he heard what happened cause his 18 year old brother had went to the march, so he and his other brothers travelled to Derry to find him. By sheer luck, my granda met his brother at a checkpoint in the city. He said he never hugged his brother tighter than at that moment.
  • From someone from Belfast, my father was murdered by loyalists and would like to thank you for making this video. Long live the peace process.
  • @GaryAbb10
    As an Irish prison living on the border, I’ve been waiting for this video for some time now! The sad reality is that tensions still exists in some parts, all these years later… A part 2 covering the events that later followed Bloody Sunday needed!
  • @CR0SSu
    As someone who lives in Northern Ireland I never expected this video
  • @joedunne7919
    Been subscribed for over a year, and you randomly drop a video about the stuff that happened in my hometown, made my day
  • @iFerg
    Never thought I’d see Johnny make a video on my country, wow…
  • @-tristan
    Nothing is more inspiring than watching people stand together.
  • @devmanek
    This wasn’t their first time. They did something similar in India called the Jallianwalabagh Massacre. Thousands of shots were fired on unarmed civilians by the command of General Dyre. He got promoted after the massacre.
  • As a long time Irish subscriber I never clicked into one of your videos fast enough, a brilliant watch. Hopefully the fact that you’ve uploaded this sheds light to an audience that may not have heard of thus horrific event that happened on this island.
  • @lalalavandica
    The dots are connecting. The oppressed ones fight with rocks and slingshots, while the oppressors send all the military and artillery, arrest them without trial, march into their houses... geezzzz why does it sound so familiar?
  • @Tom-zz6hn
    Have a look into the other Bloody Sunday in 1920 in Dublin That afternoon in Croke Park, 14 people including one player (Michael Hogan from Tipperary), lost their lives. It is estimated that 60 – 100 people were injured.
  • @pavelmacek282
    And as per usual, none of the soldiers who were shooting or the politicians responsible for this situation in general were held accountable...
  • I’m British so not proud of this history, but good to see you’re giving attention to European and international stories. Interesting watch Johnny!
  • @lmcg5555
    As a young man who grew up in Belfast and had family recount stories of these times, this was the last video I ever expected to see. An interesting note is that Catholics (my granny included) originally thought that the British Army were being brought in to protect them and therefore welcomed them on the streets, but learned very quickly this was not the case. There are many injustices in Northern Ireland that will never see the light, so thankyou for bringing attention to this one. Great work, Jonny
  • @dervy5935
    I live on the border between the North and south and grew up on stories from the troubles never expected Johnny do a video about it I had the honour to listen to John Kelly who's brother was shot on bloody Sunday in the Free Derry Museum as apart of a school trip it was an experience I will never forget
  • As someone who is Irish and living in Belfast - Thank you for sharing this story to your audience.
  • @shannonm8685
    My great grandpa was a catholic in Belfast. He was a civil rights activist during the Troubles but ended up moving to the United States for safety for his family. So, this history holds a close part in my family’s heart. Thank you for showing this part of history.
  • Tom in post-production ups his game EVERY video! Props to you all for making geopolitics not only interesting but putting them in a sense where even without any sort of connection, you feel the history. Thanks and cheers!
  • Interestingly, there were two Bloody Sundays. The other one hsppened in Dublin, 1920. British tanks stormed into Croke Park, our national sports stadium, and opened fire on innocent people and GAA players on the pitch. Google Bloody Sunday 1920.
