The statement by Sinn Fein councillor Terry Hearty that "it is the responsibility of the police to give the community in Crossmaglen the policing service that it is entitled to and uphold the rights of citizens" is an extremely misleading comment on his part as the above will not and indeed cannot be delivered by a British police force in Ireland.
This assertion shows one of two things on his part. He is either unaware of the nature of the RUC/PSNI and the role that they play or else he is deliberately attempting to mislead the people of South Armagh, something which is clearly illustrated by a closer examination of his comments.
He claims that the RUC can uphold the rights of the citizens of Crossmaglen, but what about their right to national sovereignty free from British interference? From what he has said it must be concluded that he believes that the RUC can uphold this right and if this is not the case then he must be of the opinion that the Irish people do not have such a right. His own words leave open no other option and he should make clear immediately which of the above he does in fact uphold.
In relation to a policing service which the people deserve, we in the 32 County Sovereignty Movement are of the opinion that the people of South Armagh are entitled to an all Ireland police service as part of a free and independent Ireland. We also think that the people of South Armagh have struggled too hard and suffered too much at the hands of the crown forces to be told that one section of those crown forces, the RUC/PSNI is what we deserve for our efforts and it is shameful that anyone could make such a claim.

Anti-Social Behaviour a Pretext for British Policing.
PRESS RELEASE: 32 County Sovereignty Movement.
25/07/2007.
Anti-Social Behaviour a Pretext for British Policing.
Provisional Sinn Féin's Conor Murphy has today led a delegation to meet with the RUC/PSNI in Newry to "discuss anti social behaviour" in the South Armagh area. This is part of a choreographed move on the part of Sinn Fein to bring the British Police force into the South Armagh area and anti social behaviour is being used as a convenient vehicle to do so.
During this past week it was seen as "necessary" to invite the RUC to a residents meeting in the village of Meigh to deal with anti social behaviour yet the 32 County Sovereignty Movement has been assured by several local residents that the village is quieter than it has been in many years. With this in mind it can only be concluded that this whole move by Sinn Féin is politically motivated rather than being done in the intrests of or driven by any genuine concern for local people.
In relation to today’s meeting in Newry Conor Murphy himself has stated that it is "essential that communities get the policing service that they are entitled to" adding that "a critical engagement between republican communities and the PSNI can help bring this about".
As members of the South Armagh community we would like to ask Conor Murphy the following. As part of this process will he demand that the community which he speaks for be urged to inform on republican separatists alleged to have been behind the planting of bombs in his constituency last week and will any further acts of resistance against the occupying forces be seen as acts of criminality? Sinn Féin needs to make their position on this clear to the people.
Murphy also stated that Sinn Féin wanted "to see the local community and criminal justice agencies, especially the PSNI, working together to ensure that people could live in peace and safety, free from intimidation, threat or violence."
As republicans the contradiction in the above quote is glaringly obvious. The RUC is the armed wing of the 6 county state and for many years has used intimidation threat and violence to maintain the illegal British presence in Ireland. Its primary function is to defend the status quo and it will no doubt continue to use such means in future against those who challenge this. As this challenge will inevitably come from republican separatists how is it possible that the RUC can offer any republican community "peace and safety, free from intimidation, threat or violence"?
Hopefully Conor Murphy can show the republicans in his constituency the same respect he now shows to the crown forces and address these concerns.
