The British government then blackened the names of the dead by saying they were criminals, terrorists and whatever, while the soldiers and officers who carried out the murders were promoted, rewarded, and presented with medals by the British Royal Family.
There is big difference in being killed by a terrorist bomb, and being killed by your own government. Taxes paid by those murdered had contributed to pay for the bullets which killed them. What do you call it when a government, instead of protecting its citizens, begins to murder them? We called it the end.
You should also bear in mind that many would argue that the extreme violence of the likes of the Birmingham bombing was only possible BECAUSE of Bloody Sunday.
In the USA , the government embraced the civil rights marchers and faced down the bigoted local politicians of the Southern states. The British government did the opposite, supporting the bigots and the murderers and destroying the idea of marching for civil rights in Ireland by shooting it off the streets in Derry.
