09.11.08 ROSE MCGOWAN KNOWS THE STRUGGLE
Rose McGowan recently completed Fifty Dead Men Walking, an adaptation of a book by former IRA informer Martin McGartland. Naturally, eating free food and reading lines off a script for a couple hours a day really allowed her to identify with the people.
McGowan says she would have joined the IRA if she lived in Belfast during the Troubles. “My heart just broke for the cause,” she told a news conference ahead of the film’s world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival.
She may sound like your typical Hollywood moron, but don’t worry, McGartland’s got her back.
Mr McGartland said her comments were naive. “It’s easy to say this sort of thing when you live in LA,” he added. “Rose McGowan’s comments were insulting to victims of IRA terrorism and she should apologise,” he said.
But obviously, McGartland doesn’t know of the full extent of Rose McGowan’s street cred.
She said during filming in Belfast, advice from former IRA members on how to make a bomb and techniques for torturing informants helped to add authenticity to the project.
“I had many secret meetings in dark places. We were being watched by all sides, phones tapped, that sort of thing,” she told the Hollywood Reporter. [BBC]
In Rose’s defense, if I were an Irish guy, this is exactly the kind of thing I’d tell a really dumb chick I was trying to bang. “Shh, baby, the government’s watching. Here, put your head in my lap. Now find the wire tap. I think it’s in my balls.”

The IRA is still upset they haven’t received an apology for Richard Gere’s accent in The Jackal.
Just as a survey - do you guys notice my captions when I put them in rollover form like this?
I did now that you said something. Until now I just thought you were being lazy.
RUC Constable? Then I’ll begin.
/lovely Stephen Fry wordplay.
Rose McGowan is obviously a braindead cunt of the highest order if she thinks there’s anything remotely noble about the IRA.
Oh yeah, re captions: I did once, by accident.
I could imagine if Rose McGowan was a member of the IRA.
Leader of the IRA: Ok boys, toddae we’argonna blow up one’a deir police stayshuns. Ma girlfriend Rose’ll lead ya fine gents.
IRA Members: Ugghhhh. ya know she’s gunna get us all killed, dontcha?
McGowan: Ok boys, let’s go blow some bobbies!
Captions should be Facebook style, in that you get a different caption when you roll over different areas of the photos. For instance, if you roll over Rose’s dress it could read, “Fresh off the rack at Forever 69″ but if you roll over Rose’s skin it would read, “AH FUCK I’M BLIND!!!”
So her biggest qualification here is that one time Colin Farrell convinced her to give him a hummer for the cause?

I’ll be fucked if I see a smiley face anyfuckingwhere on this post, so I’m gonna vote, nope.
Rose McGowan’s pussy looks like corned beef and smells like cabbage from all the Mick Dick that went through her while filming this.
Upon hearing her willingness to enlist in the militia, French officials began courting Rose McGowan. They’ve been searching for a fashionable way to surrender for years.
Vance, not to sound like a noob but . . . I have no idea what you’re talking about.
11???!!!!
I guess 12 now. Nevermind.
What’s a caption?
Ever since i saw “Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS”, i’ve been wanting nothing more than to bang hot Nazi chicks and kill Jews.
I’m sure the real reason the IRA is down on her is that when she stood next to their full-blooded Irish wives, she made them look like Moors.
Stinky, I believe you mean the “Moops.”
Do you mean “VIVA LA PROSTITUTION”?
Nope
It’s hard not to identify with the struggle of people who teach you “how to make a bomb and techniques for torturing informants”
