Original Note:
While Thatcher didn't personally attack Adams (Gerry, as the community note says) with a gun, loyalist paramilitaries were assisted and directed by the British security services. Govts including Thatcher's enthusiastically supported this. https://www.patfinucanecentre.org/relationships-between-british-authorities-and-loyalist-paramilitary-organisations https://www.patfinucanecentre.org/declassified-documents/thatcher-and-uvf-0
