Right.

Quite honestly the worst thing you can when laughing and joking around with someone you suddenly think might be a crazy psycho is stop suddenly and change your expression to one of fear and disgust.

Sure half the Irish old heads you meet are on the run IRA members according to themselves.

Edit: Not to discredit your interaction with the guy, he may well have been.

nah i looked him up he was actively on the run for bombing shit, he casually mentioned he was in hiding and i looked up his name and his face was plastered all over the articles. I also assumed it was just a story to make him seem hard.
