| Civilian political activist | 12 | ~5% |
| Loyalist paramilitary | 37 | ~14% |

Sutton's database also records that 89 UDA members were killed during this period.

Famous quotes containing the words deaths, result and/or activity:
“Death is too much for men to bear, whereas women, who are practiced in bearing the deaths of men before their own and who are also practiced in bearing life, take death almost in stride. They go to meet death—that is, they attempt suicide—twice as often as men, though men are more “successful” because they use surer weapons, like guns.”
—Roger Rosenblatt (b. 1940)
“It is often hard to determine whether a clear, open, and honorable proceeding is the result of goodness or of cunning.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“The animal is one with its life activity. It does not distinguish the activity from itself. It is its activity. But man makes his life activity itself an object of his will and consciousness. He has a conscious life activity. It is not a determination with which he is completely identified.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
